Brad Pitt intends to embark on a substantial European expansion.

Plan B, the successful production company co-founded by Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston in 2001, is expanding its operations in Europe. The expansion involves the establishment of a new branch in London to develop and produce more films and series for the European market.

The new European headquarters will be led by British producer Ed Macdonald, who has worked on various productions, including the Netflix series "Baby Reindeer" and "The End of the F***ing World". The search results do not provide the name of the person who will lead the new European branch of Plan B, but it is expected that more details will be announced soon.

One of the Netflix series produced by Plan B is "Adolescence". The company's recent success includes the blockbuster "F1" and the international adaptation of the German film "Weekend Rebels", which is set to be remade under Plan B's new European operations. "Weekend Warriors" with Mark Wahlberg in the lead role is the title of the remake, and the story revolves around an autistic boy who visits football stadiums with his father.

The expansion follows a trend of more US studios moving productions to Europe, with Disney, Amazon, and Warner Bros. already having significant operations in the UK or filming in various European countries. Mediawan CEO Pierre-Antoine Capton emphasizes the importance of political support in Europe, particularly in France, for creating an innovative and competitive ecosystem.

Meanwhile, Bruce Willis is living separately from his family and has round-the-clock care. However, the article does not provide details about his personal life or family situation. Plan B has had success in Hollywood, with productions like "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" by Tim Burton. The company is also collaborating with Film Four on the adaptation of "H is For Hawk".

US President Donald Trump has threatened to investigate possible tariffs on film productions to bring them back to the US. However, it remains to be seen how this will impact Plan B's expansion in Europe. The new version of the French hit series "Call My Agent" is also planned, but no further details have been announced yet.
