Brad Pitt's co-star in The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button has described him as a "great father".

Taraji Henson told People that Pitt and partner Angelina Jolie have "the parenting thing mapped out".

"There are some parents who are meant to be parents of multiple [children]. They were chosen," she said. "We all know that he is an incredible artist, but he really is a great person and a great father."

Pitt and Jolie, who have six children, reportedly spend "one-on-one time" with each child every day.
