Angelina Jolie Prepares To Play Cleopatra


Angelina Jolie is preparing to play Cleopatra in the big screen. It was one of the late Elizabeth Taylor’s most famous roles.


“My performance will never be as lovely as Elizabeth’s. We are trying to get into a different truth about her as a pharaoh in history and not as a sex symbol, because she really wasn’t. Even this idea of her having many lovers – it was possible that it was only two. She is very interesting, but she wasn’t a great beauty.”


We first heard about this project a while ago (much to some people’s dismay), so I’m glad to hear they’re making progress! I’m excited to see Angelina as Cleopatra. How about you?
