What 1999 film starring Brad Pitt has a fight club?

The 1999 film starring Brad Pitt that features a fight club is Fight Club. Directed by David Fincher, it stars Pitt as the charismatic and anarchic Tyler Durden, who helps an unnamed office worker create an underground group built around bare-knuckle combat.

The film adapts Chuck Palahniuk’s 1996 novel, with a screenplay by Jim Uhls. Edward Norton plays the unnamed narrator, while Helena Bonham Carter portrays Marla Singer. The story uses violence, consumer culture, insomnia, and fractured identity to explore a disaffected man’s rebellion against the routines of modern corporate life.

Fight Club premiered at the Venice Film Festival in September 1999 and reached U.S. theaters the following month. It initially divided critics and fell short of the studio’s expectations, but its home-video release helped it become a major cult film. Brad Pitt prepared physically for Tyler Durden with boxing, taekwondo, and grappling training. The film is often remembered for its twist, but the title refers both to the original secret fighting group and to the larger movement it inspires.
