The term selfless may be applied here if your intent is 'extra ordinary gesture from Brad Pitt to his current team' selfless :
Having, exhibiting, or motivated by no concern for oneself; unselfish What Brad Pitt did in the movie "Money Ball" was truly selfless - he turned down an offer of 12.3 million to stay loyal to his team.
Selfless acts are often viewed by others as superhuman and sometimes implausible because people are generally expected to act in their own rational self interest and selfless acts don't fit that mold.

"Extraordinary" makes a lot of sense here, as what is human is "ordinary," so "extraordinary" means "beyond human."
Something else that sounds good is "incredible," which means "so powerful that I almost can't believe it."
"Unbelievable" is a pretty obvious one, too.
For your specific situation, I would go with "extraordinary.
" It carries a very similar meaning as "beyond human" but sounds a lot better.
What Brad Pitt did in the movie Moneyball was extraordinary : he turned down an offer of $12.3 million to stay loyal to his team.

Also extraordinary fits quite well, which means pleasant, exceptional and unexpected in general (i.e. from normal human being in this context)
