Brad Pitt knows how to suit up.

Angelina Jolie's other half is all decked out and duded up on the London set of The Counselor, which we're pretty sure is not about a dude who helps high schoolers choose a good college. The Ridley Scott-directed film is based on a screenplay by novelist Cormac McCarthy and will also feature Michael Fassbender, Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem and Cameron Diaz.

So what's it all about?

According to reports, the story concerns Fassbender's lawyer getting involved with Pitt's character, who's a shadowy (well, maybe not all that shadowy considering his getup) drug trafficker.

You might remember McCarthy wrote the deadly-drug-deal-gone-wrong novel that the gritty No Country for Old Men was based on, so we're fairly confident that some bad stuff is going to go down in this new story.

That said, at least Pitt will look stylish whatever the outcome.
