Professional jet-setter! Brad Pitt hits four cities in one day to promote his new zombie epic World War Z

Professional jet-setter! Brad Pitt hits four cities in one day to promote his new zombie epic World War Z

Hopefully Brad Pitt is getting airmiles with whatever airline he flies.
For the ageing heartthrob flew approximately 2,000 miles around the United States on Thursday, from the Deep South to the East Coast to the Midwest to the Southwest, all to surprise audiences at screenings of his new zombie epic World War Z.
The first stop was in Atlanta before the 49-year-old headed North to the city of brotherly love in Philadelphia, showing up at a theater at the King of Prussia Mall.
Four in one day! Actor Brad Pitt surprised audiences in Austin, Texas for a screening of World War Z, making it his fourth city to appear in to promote his new film in one day

The intellectual thespian told the Philadelphia crowd: 'I just crushed a cheesesteak next door. It really is the perfect sandwich.'
From there he headed to Chicago and surprised a crowd at the AMC River East theater.
At all of the first three appearances Pitt wore his hair in a ponytail along with a leather jacket, a black shirt, black jeans and boots.
Curiously, by the time he got to Austin he had shed the his overcoat.
As special screening tickets were given out to screenings in Houston as well as all the other aforementioned cities, there's a possibility that Pitt may head to that Texas city next, making it his fifth city in the span of 24 hours.
Surprise! In the third city of the day, Pitt seemed as jovial as ever

On top of criss-crossing the United States over the course of the day, Pitt just returned from Germany with wife Angelina Jolie and their kids on Wednesday.
While in Berlin, RadarOnline.com has reported that Pitt, Jolie and the family dined at a ramen restaurant and tipped over seven hundred dollars on a one thousand dollar check.
Besides promoting his new film all over the world, the internationally renowned actor has been supporting his wife through her recent announcement that she had a mastectomy to protect herself from developing breast cancer in the future.
World War Z is adapted from the book of the same name written by Max Brooks, Mel Brooks' son.
It was widely reported that production of the film last year was plagued by production problems, script rewrites and reshoots, delaying its release until this summer.
However, early reviews have said the film is a worthy entry into the ever crowded zombie-film cannon.
World War Z opens in theaters on June 21.
