It is impossible to deny that streaming services have changed the landscape when it comes to films and television.

While some, like Steven Spielberg, vehemently believe that films produced by such services should not be eligible for Oscars, but Emmys instead, it has not yet stopped features like Netflix’s Roma sweeping awards ceremonies.

Brad Pitt believes there is space for both.

The veteran actor, who has starred in over 80 productions, told GQ, “I really appreciate the streaming services because we’re seeing more and more quality projects being made. We’re seeing more writers and directors and actors getting a shot. It just tells you how many talented people are out there.”

On the “war” between tradition and the future, Pitt remained hopeful.

“I like to think there’s room for both,” the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor said. “But I could be a dinosaur and not even know it, man. And the comet could be on the way.”

We’ll have to wait and see.
