That Brad Pitt-Harry Styles movie *is* too good to be true

Movie fans around the world were girding their loins Wednesday morning at the prospect of a much sexier silver screen after rumours abounded that both Harry Styles and Brad Pitt were set to star in an upcoming film, Faster, Cheaper, Better. Even we had our fingers crossed.According to the website of the European/Latin America film distributor Vértice Cine, both Pitt and Styles had signed on to star in the film that centres on *checks notes* the trucking industry? Hold up, let’s hear them out.“The film spans 20 years in multiple locations with intertwined stories of countless characters,” the Spanish website outlined, “including: a union boss, a young businessman, an inland farm manager, and a tech millionaire whose lives are cut short when the automation and artificial intelligence transform the world as we know it. In the end, everyone must face the meaning of being human.”Okay, sounds like a cool deal![video_embed id='1992636']RELATED: You can now fall asleep to Harry Styles’ voice[/video_embed]Director Dan Gilroy, whose previous hits include the Jake Gyllenhaal vehicle Nightcrawler, is the listed director on the website and also on IMDB.Of course, Twitter was clearly on board to have the world’s biggest sex symbols together. The thirst is real, folks.
