Angelina Jolie Not In Gravity

I mentioned back in March that Angelina Jolie would probably not be going ahead with her role in Gravity.

Well it looks like I was right, because the role is now rumored to be going to Natalie Portman.
Gravity is Alfonso Cuaron's $80 million dollar "3D survival story" about two astronauts (a male and female) who are stranded after a disaster leaves their space station inoperable.
The male lead is reported to be Robert Downey Jr.

Oddly enough, Robert Downey Jr. plays Iron Man in the very successful films, and Natalie Portman will be playing Jane Foster in the upcoming Marvel movie, Thor.

According to reports, even after Angelina originally turned down the role, Warner Bros. still tried to get her, making a second offer.
But she still said no.

Gravity is supposed to start production at the end of January 2011, but with Angelina definitely saying no, the project might be in jeopardy, even with Robert Downey and Natalie Portman.

Twilight's Kristen Stewart to replace Angelina Jolie in Wanted 2?

I said that when Angelina Jolie pulled out of the Wanted sequel, that I thought that pretty much killed it.
But the producers may have figured out a way around Angelina's absence, by focusing on another up and coming star.
No, not Megan Fox.
It appears the producers are looking at Twilight's Kristen Stewart to fill the void left by Angelina.

Rumor has it that Kristen will play a young assassin and James McAvoy will be back as Wesley Gibson.
The original idea that I had heard was that Fox (Angelina's character) was put in the healing wax bath and that she would be good to go for the sequel.
But when Angie nixed that idea, all looked like it was lost.

If this works out and Kristen does do the Wanted sequel, that will put the legions of Twilight fans behind the new project.

Now, will Kristen be playing Fox or another character?

As you know, Fox took a bullet to the head in the original, so could even the waxy bath save her?
Does she have an ability that allows her to regenerate like Dr. Who?
Did she do some kinda psychic transfer just before she died?
Does Wesley do some secret Tibetan ritual that transfers Fox's essence from one body to another?
Does Kristen play an all new character?
I gotta go with the last one, because that would allow Wesley to become the mentor, let Fox rest in peace, and give Kristen a new character to fill out.

Angelina Jolie Takes a Break From The Tourist

Even though the tabloids have been saying that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are on the rocks (when haven't they?) Brangelina somehow managed to fly down to Bosnia over the weekend.
I guess the nay-sayers will come out with an explanation for that.
As you probably know, Angelina is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations (she has been since 2001), and she has done a lot of work for them.
But now Brad is going with her.
And Angelina actually took a break from the six kids, and working on "The Tourist" (with Johnny Depp) in Venice, Italy to fly down.
Or is it fly over?
Anyway, Brad and Angelina weren't there for the publicity, because they tried to avoid the spotlight as much as possible.
Well as much as a couple that famous can at least.

And in other news, Columbia Pictures released the full theatrical version movie trailer for Angelina's upcoming film "Salt".
And of course Screamingangie1 has it, and you can see it here:

Angelina Jolie - First Films

At the age of 14, Angelina Jolie started working as a fashion model.
Finesse Model Management signed her and she modeled in both the United States and Europe, working mainly in Los Angeles, New York and London.
During that time, she also appeared in several music videos, including those of Meat Loaf ("Rock & Roll Dreams Come Through"), Antonello Venditti ("Alta Marea"), Lenny Kravitz ("Stand by My Woman"), and The Lemonheads ("It's About Time").
At the age of 16, Jolie returned to theatre.
She began to learn from her father, as she noticed his method of observing people to become like them.
Their relationship during this time was less strained, with Angelina realizing that they were both "drama queens".

While her brother attended the USC School of Cinematic Arts, Angelina appeared in five of his student films. But her professional movie career really began in 1993, when she played her first leading role in the low budget film Cyborg 2, as Casella "Cash" Reese, a near-human robot, designed to seduce her way into a rival manufacturer's headquarters and then self-detonate. She starred as Kate "Acid Burn" Libby in her first Hollywood picture, Hackers (1995), where she met her first husband Jonny Lee Miller.
The New York Times wrote, "Kate (Angelina Jolie) stands out. That's because she scowls even more sourly than her co-stars and is that rare female hacker who sits intently at her keyboard in a see-through top. Despite her sullen posturing, which is all this role requires, Ms. Jolie has the sweetly cherubic looks of her father, Jon Voight."
The movie failed to make a profit at the box-office, but developed a cult following after its video release.
