Angelina Jolie to Adopt Seventh Child
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors
I suppose that foreign children are nice holiday presents for the Pitt-Jolies—Salt starlet Angelina Jolie is reportedly set to adopt a baby from Syria.
The Oscar-winning actress, who already has three adopted children, as well as three biological ones, with partner Brad Pitt, has started the process to bring home a baby girl from the Asian country.
Brad, however, is said to not be keen on the idea, but an undeterred Angelina began the proceedings on her own. A source said, “He has made it clear that six children are more than he can handle. The idea of one more seemed ludicrous, but Angie is determined to complete her rainbow family.”
A spokesman for the Immigration and Naturalization Service in Washington D.C. confirmed that “only Angelina’s name was on the adoption papers.” Angelina adopted her eldest son Maddox - now eight - from Cambodia in 2001, while she was still married to second husband Billy Bob Thornton, but was legally his only parent.
After splitting from Billy, she went on to adopt Zahara from Ethiopia in 2005 and soon after getting together with Brad, he legally became the father of both children. The couple then had their first biological child, Shiloh, in May 2006 before adopting Pax - now five - from Vietnam in March 2007. They then became the proud parents of twins, Knox and Vivienne, who were born in July 2008.

First Look: Angelina Jolie in Salt
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Columbia Pictures, Sony, Action, Thrillers, Trailers, Upcoming Releases
In this new trailer for Salt, Angelina Jolie rocks heels, climbs walls and wields guns. In other words, it’s your typical day for the mother of six.
The film, which was originally set to star Tom Cruise, tells the story of a CIA agent who may or may not be a Russian spy. While the story reminds me a great deal of Kevin Costner’s No Way Out, the visuals are more in line with Jolie’s Wanted.
Salt - also starring Liev Schreiber and Chiwetel Ejiofor - opens July 23.

Angelina Jolie Project Gets Production Date
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Remakes, Thrillers, Casting, Celebrity Gossip, Upcoming Releases
Angelina Jolie turned down several other offers, including the Wanted sequel, to participate in The Tourist. Now, the flick finally has a production date.
Jolie did attach some strings to her involvement with the film - she wouldn’t do it unless a proper director was involved with the project. Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck has been selected, and everyone seems to be happy. Though negotiations are not quite finalized, the film is expected to enjoy a 2011 release date. Donnersmarck won an Academy Award (Best Foreign-Language Film, 2006) for The Lives of Others.
In the flick, Angelina Jolie will portray an Interpol agent. Filming is expected to begin in February.

Charlize Theron Purring Over Catwoman Role
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Warner Bros, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Mystery, Noir, Sequels, Thrillers, Casting, Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors, Upcoming Releases
Considering that Megan Fox can be counted out, Charlize Theron is now proclaiming how she’d love to “kick a*s” as Catwoman.
The Hollywood actress is thrilled to learn that she is in the running to play the super-villain alongside Christian Bale and Sir Michael Caine in the upcoming sequel to Batman blockbuster The Dark Knight.
“It’s news to me, but that’s kick-a*s news. I like that… I think that what has happened to that franchise is amazing, and director Chris Nolan is a genius. So I would be an idiot to not consider that.”
If the 34-year-old starlet accepts the role, she will be following in the footsteps of Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry, who have both donned the iconic leather catsuit on the big screen.
Other actresses linked to the role include Angelina Jolie and Rachel Weisz.

Getting Into Character: Angelina Jolie in Salt
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Columbia Pictures, Sony, Action, Thrillers, Upcoming Releases


Is there a look Angelina Jolie can’t master?
In her next film, Salt, the recent Oscar nominee plays Evelyn A. Salt, a CIA agent who may also be a Russian spy. It’s a part that was once attached to Tom Cruise.
“She’s a character you never know,” producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura told USA Today about the role. “People who think they know the real her may or may not. Those who think they can tell whether she’s in a disguise also may or may not.”
