Brad Pitt is not against Jolie
Following their separate appearances at the film festival, sources close to the Fight Club actor claimed that “he doesn’t hold anything against her”. A source close to the actress said that the actress finds the whole situation “extremely sad”. The festival’s artistic director, Alberto Barbera, explained that Jolie and Pitt’s schedules were “of course” spread out and that “there was no way they could outshine each other”.
The conflict between the two has been going on for the last eight years.
An insider told the media outlet that while everyone is waiting for its conclusion, close friends of the former couple find it “shocking” that they are still “unable to find a solution and finalize the divorce.” Another source added that they hope the two “sort out the marital side of things in light of the Miraval case. Hopefully they can both get on the same page.”

Jolie and Pitt’s winery fight
The Miraval case refers to a separate legal battle going on between Jolie and Pitt over Chateau Miraval, the French villa and winery they purchased in 2012 for a reported $60 million. They launched the wine in 2013 and sold out the first 6,000 bottles of rosé within five hours. In court filings for the case, Pitt claimed Jolie intentionally “tried to harm” him because she decided to sell her half of the winery to Stoli Group after their split.
In an interview with GQ, he said that he is, “really trying to enjoy the people around me, the people I love, and just living. I don’t know how to not sound corny about it, but the air is fresh and the grass is green, and I’ve just become that guy for a little bit.”
Jolie and Pitt have been together since 2004 and got married in 2014. However, the couple ended their relationship in 2016 after just two years of marriage.
