New posters of Brad Pitt's newest film are out and one of them shows the actor sitting on top of a tank, looking raw and gritty.

Directed by David Ayer, who also directed End of Watch, and wrote Training Day, this new Brad Pitt movie is unlike his previous turns as a World War II soldier -- most notably in Inglorious Basterds. The movie's script is more thoughtful, the setting more grim, and the action more rough.

In Fury, Pitt plays Wardaddy, a commander of a troop of American soldiers who are on a mission to attack the very center of Nazi Germany. Which explains the Macklmore-style undercut that the actor has been seen sporting since November of last year.

Part of his team on the deadly mission are Shia LaBeouf, Jon Bernthal from The Walking Dead, Logan Lerman who was last seen in The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and Scott Eastwood, son of film legend, Clint Eastwood.

The 50-year-old actor in California recently for a private screening of his new movie Fury. At the Sherman Oaks Galleria on Friday (August 8), the actor brought along his father William.

Pitt filmed this new movie of his while staying in London, while his wife Angelina Jolie was on the other side of the world in Australia directing her newest feature, Unbroken.

The actress revealed to TV Week, an Australian magazine, that she and Pitt sent each other handrwitten love letters during this time of separation.

The Maleficent star shared, "He was supportive from a distance, and it was quite romantic in a way," she says.

"We decided to be of that time, when we could imagine he was in the European theater and I was in the Pacific theater, and we wrote handwritten letters to each other that were very connecting for us, thinking of the people that were separated for months, if not years, at a time back then," she adds.

Brad Pitt's new movie Fury will be hitting movie screens on November 14.
