Allied
Fans might have forgotten about this film of Brad’s. “Allied” was a 2016 war film that co-starred Marion Cotillard. Cotillard is a French resistance (Marianne Beausejour) fighter and Pitt is a Canadian intelligence officer (Max Vatan) during World War Two.

The two characters form a passionate relationship while on a dangerous mission in Casablanca. As their love deepens, suspicions arise regarding Marianne's true allegiance, raising the stakes for their personal and professional lives. “Allied” was considered a big-budget film but unfortunately did not do very well at all. Due to its lack of popularity, it doesn’t normally stand out in the minds of Brad Pitt fans.

Killing Them Softly
“Killing Them Softly” might be a film that some Brad Pitt fans have forgotten. The 2012 film focused on a Mafia poker game robbery gone very, very wrong. Despite its gritty-sounding plot, “Killing Them Softly” had a dark humor aspect to it where you can really see Pitt's talents shine.

Participating in that movie may have helped open the door even more to a wider range of roles for him. In true Hollywood mafia fashion, the cast also included Ray Liotta (of "Goodfellas" fame), James Gandolfini (who you probably know as Tony Soprano from "Sopranos"), Sam Shepherd, and Richard Jenkins.
