This might be Pitt trying to not give the movie away but try to answer a reporters question

Spoilers for movie

Spoiler!

This movie is really about his relationship with his Father and how he is basically going down the same path his father did. There are many parallels that are shown throughout the movie as far as him not having a family and losing his wife/girlfriend, Putting the job before everything else, killing everyone on the ship. Once he meets his father he sees where he is going and how it affected his dad and sees that he didn't need to go to space to find the life he wanted, it was back home staring him in the face.

So that might explain the "Toxic Masculinity" that Pitt said concerning the main character.
