According to IMDB.com his first role was an uncredited part as a beach bum in _Hunk_ in 1987, followed by roles in _Growing Pains_ and _Glory Days_ before his breakout role in _Thelma & Louise_ in 1991\. This is all to say that he has a great deal of experience on the media circuit, making the rounds of interviews, photo shoots, and press conferences that come with promoting each of his new films. After so many years, he feels very comfortable around the media and has no qualms about goofing around on set and shaking up his co-star’s photo shoots.

(Photo by Kevork Djansezian/Getty Images) Kevork Djansezian—Getty Images Case in point, at a recent photo shoot for his forthcoming film, [Quentin Tarantino’s](https://time.com/5594650/quentin-tarantino-margot-robbie-question/ "undefined") _Once Upon A Time in Hollywood_, photos have come out showing Pitt hilariously photobombing his co-star, [Margot Robbie](https://time.com/collection/2017-time-100/4736220/margot-robbie/ "undefined"). In the images, it’s clear that Robbie is ready for her close up, but as the photographer snaps off some frames, Pitt comes leaping through, looking very spry as his disrupts the shoot. For her part, Robbie didn’t seem to mind the disruption as she can bee seen hamming it up and smiling broadly in the background. His antics were undoubtedly no surprise to Robbie, as Pitt, along with George Clooney, has a bit of a reputation as a prankster. [According to _The Telegraph_](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/films/0/george-clooney-best-funniest-movie-star-pranks/ "undefined"), on the set of _Ocean’s Twelve_, Pitt sent a memo to the crew suggesting that they never make eye contact with Clooney and if they did speak to him, to only call him by his character name, Danny Ocean. Don’t worry, Clooney got his revenge, by plastering Pitt’s car with bumper stickers that Pitt would probably not have chosen. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5625326/brad-pitt-margot-robbie-photo/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5625326/brad-pitt-margot-robbie-photo/"},"headline":"Leaping Brad Pitt Knew What He Was Doing When He Photobombed Margot Robbie","datePublished":"2019-07-12T14:50:17.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T04:46:05.699Z","description":"Pitt has no qualms about pranking his Once Upon A Time in Hollywood co-star.","url":"https://time.com/5625326/brad-pitt-margot-robbie-photo/","keywords":["Newsfeed","movies","celebrities","Brad Pitt","margot robbie","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt98efed04f85f4930/6989ffe07cdbac4037d60faf/bradpittmargotrobbie.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt98efed04f85f4930/6989ffe07cdbac4037d60faf/bradpittmargotrobbie.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Photo Call For Columbia Pictures' \"Once Upon A Time In Hollywood\"","caption":"Brad Pitt photobombs Margot Robbie","creditText":"Kevork Djansezian—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5625326/brad-pitt-margot-robbie-photo/","name":"Leaping Brad Pitt Knew What He Was Doing When He Photobombed Margot Robbie"}}]}] ```
