Too close for comfort?
Brad Pitt headed to Asia just after Angelina Jolie’s son Maddox gave a shocking interview and snubbed his estranged dad.
Pitt, 55, arrived in Tokyo, Japan, on September 11, and he was greeted by a mob of fans — but Maddox, who is currently studying chemistry 700 miles away at Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea, didn’t make the short flight to meet up with the star.
When a reporter recently asked Maddox if he would be seeing his famous dad, the teen replied: “Um, I don’t know about that.”
Still, there’s a chance Maddox and Pitt could schedule a meeting since Pitt will be in Maddox’s new home country to promote the film Once Upon A Time In Hollywood on September 26.
