This could work: Angelina Jolie will play Cleopatra in a new movie for producer Scott Rudin, says USA Today.
Writer Stacy Schiff, who's got a new book called Cleopatra: A Life, apparently knows about this project -which Rudin's office has confirmed -and speculates to the paper that Brad Pitt would be a "no-brainer" for the role of Marc Antony.
The New York Post is pretty sure that Bradley Cooper is about to make an honest woman of Renee Zellweger, as the old saying goes. (Funny, nobody ever talked of making an honest man of the groom. But I digress.)
As evidence, the paper reports that the Zellster was seen last week at the Carolina Herrera boutique in West Hollywood, and "a big rack of wedding gowns was wheeled by," and then she left with a garment bag and a smile. Later she was seen having lunch with Cooper and his parents.
That must be proof!
So what have you done for your step-kids lately? The National Enquirer says Ashton Kutcher wrote a big cheque -amount not specified -to help Rumer Willis, daughter of his wife Demi Moore, keep her house.
Rumer had bought the place for $1 million but was having trouble with the mortgage, so Ashton helped out. Rumer is 21.
Write if you get work: Ricky Martin will star in a new Broadway production of Evita, opposite Argentine star Elena Roger.
"I've never lost my love for the intimacy of the theatre," Martin said, meaning I suppose that he can't find any work that pays better. The show opens in the spring of 2012.
Oh, shut up: Sean Penn likes to say how sad it is that some celebs go around doing good works just to get publicity. But guess who's now got a 12-page feature in the new Vanity Fair about his activities in Haiti? You'll love the quote: Working in Haiti, he said, has "returned to me something I lost -my humility."
After conservative U.S. radio talker Rush Limbaugh got married yet again, David Letterman's Top Ten list of comments overheard at the wedding had only a couple good items:
9. "Mrs. Palin, please, enough with the celebratory gunfire."
8. "Do you take this woman to be your future ex-wife?"
Those grapes are sour: 15 years and more after he was passed over for the role Leonardo DiCaprio landed in Titanic, actor Ethan Hawke claims he's happy the mega-blockbuster didn't happen to him.
Speaking to The Telegraph, in England, Hawke says that after Leo's life was changed by mega-stardom, "I sat there watching him and it was like watching a Beatle ... I went to myself: 'Wow man, I'm glad I didn't get that part.' "
Then he 'fessed up: "But you know, secretly, I couldn't help thinking that if I had got it maybe I could have lived exactly the life I wanted to. That I would never have had to worry about my career. Damn Di-Caprio!"
