Hollywood actor Brad Pitt has revealed that he agreed to voice a character in the animation film "Megamind" for his kids.

The Oscar-nominated actor gave the voice of the character "Metro Man" in the new animation movie, which also includes actors like Will Ferrell, Jonah Hill and Tina Fey.

"This one is for my boys. We watch more animated movies than probably any family in this world, in-fact, I couldn't tell you any contemporary movies that are going on now. I only know the animated films," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Pitt as saying.

The actor admits that it's animated movies that are a hit with his kids and that was a huge influence on taking on the film.
