All good things must come to an end. Even, it seems, Brad Pitt's acting career.

In an interview with Australia's 60 Minutes, Pitt reveals he has an exit strategy planned for his movie star career...and it's sooner than you'd think! 

Another shocker? He and Angelina Jolie might not be done having kids! Seriously!

When asked how much longer he'd like to keep acting, the 47-year-old answers, "Three years." 

Yes, Pitt says he plans to step off-camera and get behind it by the age of 50. "I am really enjoying the producing side and development of stories and putting those pieces together," Pitt says. "Getting stories to the plate that might have had a tougher times otherwise." 

Something he may not be ready to say goodbye to? The possibility of expanding the Jolie-Pitt family! "You know, I don't know that we're finished," Pitt says. "I don't know yet. I don't know."

With six children, Pitt says he "obviously" enjoys the chaos and that the lack of sleep is fine with him right now. "Those late nights are so fun when one of them's up or those mornings when they get up and make pancakes or something. That's what it's about."
