Angelina Jolie will not be acting as s*x kitten in Cleopatra



In Sony Pictures' new 3D biopic, based on Stacy Schiff's biography Queen Of The Nile, Cleopatra: A Life, Angelina Jolie will not be acting as s*x kitten for Cleopatra role.

Director Scott Rudin said: "It is a completely revisionist Cleopatra, a much more grown-up sophisticated version.

"She's not a s*x kitten, she's a politician, strategist, warrior. In the Joseph Mankiewicz movie, Elizabeth Taylor is a seductress, but the histories of Cleopatra have been written by men. This is the first to be written by a woman.

"It felt like such a blow-the-doors-off-the-hinges idea of how to tell it, impossible to resist. We're pretty close. A lot of directors want to do it, but there is only a handful we'll make it with."

I think that is right the idea to see a new personality of Cleopatra, and the Museu Egipci (FundaciĆ³ Clos) of Barcelona is looking forward the movie and it is so proud that Angelina has the role of Cleopatra. You can go to theyr website and see comments.
