earning critical acclaim and accolades along the way.
The late '90s and early 2000s saw Brad solidify his position as a Hollywood A-lister, starring in blockbuster hits like "Fight Club" (1999) and "Troy" (2004),
while also embracing character-driven projects such as "Snatch" (2000) and "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" (2007).
His foray into producing with Plan
B Entertainment further cemented his multifaceted talent, leading to successful films like the "Ocean's" series and "The Departed."
