Brad Pitt looks old.

One of the most visually interesting films of its year, and the poster is just a guy looking over his shoulder? Modern theatrical posters are so uncreative.

guess the studio be like 'we paid for Brad Pitt we damn well having him on the poster!'

But really the movie shouldve had a poster in the style of Alien or 2001, there was one like that but it wasn't up to much http://www.impawards.com/2019/ad_astra.html

It's only got two thing to say, which is maybe enough. It stars Brad Pitt and he's going to space. To be honest, that's really all you gotta tell me to get me interested. But I'm surely in the target demographic they're shooting at.

What?

Brad Pitt doesn't look at all as a 55-year old man in this poster.

It's not the best poster in the world,
but from a marketing standpoint it makes sense.

The nerdy title (to the stars) doesn't draw, it's a original sci-fi movie that most people are unaware of, so...let's just put out a big old face shot Brad Pitt...that will help sell tickets!
