Brad Pitt Doesn't Let Negative Feedback 'Overshadow His Confidence': 'Life Is Good' (Exclusive)

“Brad’s on this natural high right now," a source tells PEOPLE after Pitt's appearance at the Venice Film Festival for the world premiere of 'Wolfs'

Brad Pitt is riding a "natural high" following his appearance at the 2024 Venice Film Festival, sources tell PEOPLE.

“Life’s good. He loves spending time in Europe," a source close to Pitt, 60, says, days after the actor appeared alongside George Clooney in Venice to debut and promote their upcoming movie Wolfs, on top of making his red carpet debut with girlfriend Ines de Ramon. "He’s been excited to reunite with Clooney. They had a blast filming last year. He’s happy to promote this project."

"He’s to the point in his career where he of course cares about feedback and reviews, but anything negative also doesn’t overshadow his confidence," the source adds. "He’s just grateful to have all the amazing work opportunities. Ines loves Europe too and they’ve had a great summer.”

Another source close to Pitt tells PEOPLE that he has "had fun" making his upcoming car racing movie F1 , which zooms into theaters on June 27, 2025.

Wolfs stars Pitt and Clooney, 63, as two professional fixers and lone wolves who are accidentally assigned to the same job and forced to work together. While Clooney spoke with PEOPLE on the red carpet for that movie on Sept. 1, he joked that "there's nothing good about" working with his longtime friend Pitt.

"It's all a disaster," he jested, before saying more seriously, "It's fun to work with people you know really well."

Wolfs is in theaters Sept. 20 and premieres on Apple TV+ Sept. 27. In addition to that movie and F1, Pitt also has a number of projects in the works he's producing, including Mickey 17.
