Pitt 'hurries home to see children'

Brad Pitt has admitted that he rushes home from work to be with Angelina Jolie and their six children.

Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, the actor acknowledged that passing 40 has made him re-evaluate his priorities.

He said: "Once you hit 40, you start re-examining the math of it all. I'll trade wisdom for youth any day. I don't have to grope as much for the character. I can get there quicker, so it's not as much trial and error.

"Also, as I get older, more experiences, I'm more fine-tuned in what I'm after, what I think speaks in the piece. And lastly I want to hurry and get home to my kids."

Pitt's new film The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button is released in UK cinemas on February 6.
