Reflecting on the perils of fame, the Troy star opened up that there were certain similarities between movie stars and race car driver despite belonging from different professions.

“There’s an isolation,” said the 61-year-old in a new interview with GQ magazine.

Brad told the outlet, “Even a loneliness when you don’t feel like things are clicking. They usually lead to something greater and you can find purpose in it.”

“But there is a definite isolation and it’s not necessarily a negative, it’s an endeavour and a constant discussion with you and yourself of maintaining this thing,” mentioned the Bullet Train actor.

Elaborating on how F1 drivers faced intense scrutiny than movie stars, Brad pointed out that they have got it bad.

“Those guys are so scrutinized and that sport is so revered and there are so many of us that think we could do it, too, just because we drive a car fast down the freeway or something,” stated the Wolfs actor

Interestingly, Brad expressed his shock, adding, “They’ve got to have thicker skin than even us.”

He noted that actors were no strangers to pressure, but the IF star also believed that Formula 1 drivers had been under an even more brutal microscope.

“They’re in the spotlight like few others,” he remarked.

Brad further said, “It is a sport followed by many people and many believe that they can do their own business just because they run fast on the highway. They take an absurd amount of criticism.”

Meanwhile, Brad’s new F1 movie will hit the theatres on June 27.
