The 60-year-old actor arrived ahead of the Sunday premiere of his and George Clooney’s new action comedy movie “Wolfs.” Clooney, 63, and his wife, Amal, 46, appeared at the fourth day of the world-renowned festival as well.
Dressing as brightly as the sun was shining on Venice, Pitt wore a white button-down shirt and yellow plaid trousers paired with yellow loafers. He also protected his eyes from the sun with some shades.
de Ramon, meanwhile, looked elegant in a floor-length beige skirt. She tucked a plain white T-shirt into the skirt and secured it with a thick brown belt, which accentuated her tiny waist.
She opted for beige heels and wore sunglasses as well.
The pair waved at fans as they boarded a water taxi that romantically whisked them away to the infamous Italian city.
Their arrival at the 81st Venice International Film Festival comes after artistic director Alberto Barbera revealed Pitt and his ex-wife, Angelina Jolie, were strategically scheduled to avoid any chance of running into one another.
“Angelina will be on the first day, on Thursday [Aug. 29], and she will leave right after with [‘Maria’ director] Pablo Larraín to go to Telluride [Film Festival in Colorado],” he told Vanity Fair in an interview published on Aug. 15.
“So Brad will arrive only on Saturday, to Venice. There is no way that they can cross each other at the Lido,” he added.
An insider told Page Six that the exes did not make the request, but that the event organizers “were wise enough to realize.”
Jolie, 49, filed for divorce in 2016 but their separation is far from settled as they battle in court over their French winery, Château Miraval, and custody of their six children: Maddox, 23, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
It is unclear where custody stands between the estranged spouses. Pitt was granted joint legal custody with Jolie in 2021, but the decision was overturned months later because the judge allegedly had ties to Pitt’s attorneys. Therefore, Jolie was given full custody of their kids, while Pitt was awarded visitation rights.
A source told People in July that the “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” star has “virtually no contact” with his adult kids but has visitation rights with his younger children.
Jolie seemingly had an enjoyable time at the Venice Film Festival during the Thursday premiere of “Maria,” a biographical drama film about opera singer Maria Callas.
She was brought to tears as she received an eight-minute standing ovation following the movie’s screening.
Several outlets including Variety and the New York Times believe her performance may land her an Oscar nomination.
She won an Academy Award for best supporting actress for “Girl, Interrupted” in 2000 and received a nomination for best actress for 2008’s crime drama, “Changeling.”
