Angelina Jolie has confirmed that she is in talks to play the lead role in a new big screen version of 'Cleopatra.
The star of this week's Disney blockbuster 'Maleficent' told BBC Radio 5 Live:
“
We’ve been working on it … there’s been lots of different ideas of directors and lots of different discussions …
the script has been written.”
Angelina also fell in love with her co-star, Brad Pitt on the set of 'Mr and Mrs Smith' back in 2004, and the couple have remained together since, bringing up six children together - as opposed to Taylor and Burton, who married and divorced twice, following their first passionate encounter.
Angelina has herself written the screenplay for a film project together with Brad. She recently told HuffPostUK,
"I’ve been playing with the idea of it. It’s a little independent experiment. It’s about giving ourselves the freedom to just be artists, it’s an art film."
