Brad Pitt debuts short hair (finally!) on ‘Fury’ set

Farewell, fringe! Brad Pitt has finally cut off his long hair!

The actor was photographed Tuesday rocking a shorter ‘do while filming “Fury,” a World War II Nazi Germany drama written and directed by David Ayer that costars Shia LaBeouf, Logan Lerman and Jon Bernthal.

While neither Pitt’s entire mane nor scalp was visible, the buzz-cut sides peeked out from under a white baseball cap he was wearing on set in the British countryside, according to Just Jared.

Pitt, 49, had still been rocking the long locks (and their customary bun and ponytail) last week at the Toronto International Film Festival, where he was promoting his upcoming drama “12 Years a Slave.”

The new sheared-down look -- or what we could see of it -- hearkens back to the “Ocean’s 11”-”Fight Club”-”Inglourious Basterds” days, and boy are we grateful that it involves very little facial hair.

The shortest his hair has been since then was in 2011, when he was filming “Moneyball.”

Meanwhile, his fiance, Angelina Jolie, is in Australia with the couple’s large brood working on her next directorial project, “Unbroken,” which also happens to be a World War II-era drama. The film chronicles Olympic runner Louis Zamperini’s life as he is taken prisoner by Japanese forces during the war.
