Pitt, 52, narrated the 45-minute IMAX documentary film
"Voyage of Time," directed by Terrence Malick, which he called
"incredibly beautiful."
"I'm very grateful to be part of such a fascinating and
educational project, but I’m currently focused on my family
situation and don’t want to distract attention away from this
extraordinary film, which I encourage everyone to see," the
actor said in a statement.
It was Pitt's second statement since news of the Hollywood power
couple's split broke last week.
He previously said in a statement to People magazine that he was
"very saddened" after Jolie, 41, filed for divorce in a Los
Angeles court, asking for sole physical custody of the couple's
six children.
Jolie's lawyer said the actress made the decision to file for
divorce "for the health of the family." She and Pitt had been
together for 12 years, and married for two years.
Pitt's next film is "Allied," a war drama coming out in November
and co-starring French actress Marion Cotillard.
Last week, Cotillard denied her involvement in Pitt's and
Jolie's separation after rumors implied she and Pitt were
romantically involved.
