Brad Pitt may be seemingly thriving in his new relationship with Ines de Ramon, but he still appears to have a lot of resentment towards ex-wife, Angelina Jolie.
If we are to believe reports, this is because he is still bitter that she has allegedly turned their children against him, with their ongoing bitter divorce battle “costing him his relationship with his six kids.”
Therefore, we aren’t too surprised to hear that he is reportedly going out of his way to ensure the Atelier Jolie founder, who is currently tipped to win an Oscar for her portrayal of iconic opera singer Maria Callas in the Maria biopic, is unsuccessful. Keep reading for more information.

Brad Pitt Is Reportedly Supporting Other Potential Oscar-Nominees To Spite Angelina Jolie
According to reports, the Bullet Train actor is supporting other potential Oscar-nominees instead of his ex-wife, including Nicole Kidman, who is a favorite to receive a nomination for her role in the erotic thriller, Babygirl.
This is quite an interesting development, as the F1 actor and Kidman's ex-husband, Tom Cruise, have had a notoriously frosty relationship since they worked together on Interview with a Vampire in the nineties. However, now that the Mission: Impossible actor and the Big Little Lies star are no longer together, Pitt is reportedly happy to support her if it means his ex-wife doesn't get the support. Who knew Pitt was so petty?!
Brad Pitt Is Reportedly Nicole Kidman's 'Biggest Cheerleader'
"Brad made a point of steering clear of Nicole in the nineties because he and Tom Cruise disliked each other so much after making Interview with a Vampire together," an insider dished to In Touch Weekly.
"But in 2024," they continued, "Brad has emerged as a real supporter of Nicole for her work in Babygirl and has even attended private industry screenings of the movie with Nicole, where he made no secret of how much he likes the film and her work in it."
"Having Brad be her biggest cheerleader is something totally new for Nicole, and it's a giant help as she gets the word out about this movie!" the source went on to say, adding: "To be fair, the movie itself is really in Brad's wheelhouse and it features Nicole performing very edgy sex scenes, but who are we really kidding here."
Angelina Jolie Could Very Well Win Her Second Oscar In 2025
Although Pitt seems to have ulterior motives, Kidman is reportedly grateful for the support either way. "This support, which is meaningful to Nicole and her campaign, is really just Brad's way of getting back at Angelina, who everybody knows is set up to win her first Oscar in 25 years," the source added.
Angelina won her first Oscar back in 2000 when she picked up the 'Best Actress in a Supporting Role' award for her role in Girl, Interrupted. If Brad doesn't get his way, she could very well win the 'Best Actress in a Leading Role' Oscar in 2025. Watch this space!
