Martin Scorsese blames Seth Rogen and Sony Hack for Angelina Jolie Film's Failure.
Scorsese tells, "We were gonna do Cleopatra at one point, and then they made fun of [Kim Jong Un], and he got mad and blew up everybody at Columbia. Seth Rogen, right? And then he got mad, and [it] ruined Cleopatra.”
While Rogen didn’t directly cause the project’s cancellation, the hack leaked thousands of emails — among them, messages from producer Scott Rudin to Sony’s Amy Pascal, where he called Jolie “a minimally talented spoiled brat.”
Scorsese continues, "We were gonna do it. Angelina Jolie. We were going. She was gonna be Cleopatra VII. It was gonna be really wild."
The project had screenwriter Eric Roth on board to pen its script.
