Brangelina’s Next Project: Mariane Pearl Movie

From univision.com

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

AP:

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, whose relationship was spawned on a film set, will again work together this time on a movie based on the life of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter who was kidnapped and murdered in Pakistan.

Jolie will star as Pearl’s wife, Mariane Pearl, in an adaptation of her book, “A Mighty Heart: The Brave Life and Death of My Husband Danny Pearl,” it was announced Thursday. Pitt will produce the film, directed by Michael Winterbottom.

In an ironic twist, the movie will be produced by Revolution Films and Plan B, the production company Pitt and his wife, Jennifer Aniston, founded. Pitt and Aniston, who were divorced last year, remain co-owners of the company.

He is NOT her husband! The article said Brad Pitt was Angelina’s husband. Last I knew they were not married, just together. Copy of part of article follows.
