Reunion at last! Brad Pitt touches down in Australia and whisked away in a helicopter to see Angelina Jolie and their brood after awards show stretch in Los Angeles

He has been busy for the last couple of weeks in Los Angeles on the Awards circuit where his film 12 Years A Slave has been nominated for accolade after accolade.
But Brad Pitt touched down in Sydney on Tuesday to be reunited with his partner Angelina Jolie and their six strong brood.
The actress is currently in Australia directing the harrowing World War II biopic Unbroken, and the 50-year-old actor has been flying in and out of Oz to make sure to spend as much quality time with his family as possible.

On his way to Angelina: Brad Pitt touched down in Sydney, Australia on Tuesday where he will be reunited with partner Angelina Jolie and their brood

The Hollywood hunk was certainly unmissable at Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport mostly thanks to his new Mohawk haircut.

The Thelma & Louise hunk has cut his hair into a short back and sides for his upcoming role in the war drama, Fury.
For his flight Brad went casual and comfortable in a pair of black drawstring trousers, a black V-neck T-shirt, navy blue hoodie and a black jacket.

Cool customer: While he was surrounded by ground staff, Brad opted to roll his own suitcase

More black came in the form of lace-up sneakers and a messenger bag.
Despite being surrounded by Qantas crew, Brad opted to roll along his own suitcase as he exited the terminal.
Shielding his no doubt tired eyes in his Aviator mirrored shades, he looked as handsome as ever.
Later in the morning, he then caught a flight to the Gold Coast where he was once again greeted by ground staff.
The friendly star obliged when one male employee was eager to get a snap of the star before Brad was whisked away in a helicopter, no doubt straight to his family who have been living Down Under for several weeks.

Good sport: Brad let the ground staff take photos of him as they stood on the tarmac

While he has his own busy schedule, Brad has been making sure to make as many trips down to Oz to see Angelina and their brood.
The couple have been making the most of Australia, spending time on the Gold Coast where they went ice-skating and visited the Currumbin Wildlife Park, and taking a cruise around Coomera River.
They've also been enjoying time in Sydney, including a trip to see The Lion King.

Up, up, and away: Brad was then picked up by his very own helicopter

Winners are grinners: He was no doubt still on a high after accepting the Outstanding Producer Of A Theatrical Motion Picture for his film 12 Years A Slave At the Producers Guild Awards earlier in the night

However, Brad was surely missing his partner in crime as he made the rounds at the Screen Actors Guild Awards and Producers Guild Awards last week.
His film 12 Years A Slave had a big win at the PGAs, tying with Gravity for the producer's award for outstanding picture.
It was during the ceremony on Sunday night in Los Angeles, that Brad explained to E! News that his hairstyle was 'for a part'

Adding: 'It's not a choice!'

Good pals: Brad accepted the award from Ben Affleck who won the award two years before for Argo

Then in another interview on the red carpet, the Fight Club star gushed about his film which he helped produce.
Brad explained to E! that the awards season would help the historical film reach a wider audience: 'It's great. It also ensures that more people are going to see it. And in my mind this is a film that only comes along once in a decade and everyone should see this.'
Adding: 'It's that good. It's moving, it's inspirational. It's why I wanted to go into film in the first place.'

Quality time together: Brad and Angelina went ice-skating with their children in Queensland over the holidays when the actor last jetted to Australia to see his bride-to-be and brood

Group hug: The clan also visited the Currumbin Wildlife Park on the Gold Coast in recent weeks

The film's director Steve McQueen praised the actor on the red carpet: 'Brad is a great producer because he's a filmmaker, he's an artist.
'When you have an actor who is a producer, he wants the best for the director.'
After making that statement, Brad gushed: 'I'm gonna kiss you on the lips!'
Appearing a bit taken aback, McQueen laughed and said: 'Okay. Right on the lips. Okay.'
