Angelina Jolie Told To Gain Weight For Upcoming Role

Angelina Jolie has reportedly been ordered to put on weight for a role in the forthcoming sequel to The Thomas Crown Affair. Producers have asked Angelina to start piling on the pounds in order to star alongside Pierce Brosnan. The fear is she will be as skinny as she was in Wanted.


A source tells British newspaper the Daily Mirror,

"Ideally they want Angelina to put on two stone (12.7 kilograms) for the role. It is going to be very physically demanding, which is why they want her to carry the extra weight. They don’t want a reprise of what happened with Wanted, where she was fainting and they had to take her costumes in."

Guess it goes both ways right? Some actresses are told to lose weight and others are told to gain. It does make sense why they would ask her to put on the pounds - for health reasons. If gaining will prevent fainting spells, then I think it's in everyone's best interest.

Give the opportunities for other actresses to get leading roles. Their image is very burned out .... ALL OF THEM.

I'm glad they asked her to put on some weight. I know when the Wanted pics came out that is one thing everyone was talking about - how stick thin she looked. She has been at a healthier weight before and she looks better that way.

NOt gonna happen, there's no way she'll put on that much weight. She'll make up some excuse like "being exhausted from bringing up all those kids with no help" or something stupid like that.

I don't think this is true. Quotes from unnamed sources are usually lies.

I actually like Angelina when she was in Tomb Raider. She was fit and looked like a woman. Now she looks like pop-eye's wife Olive. Shame

Look at it this way, no pressure to lose the baby weight. I think the producers have a good idea, with all the physical activity she will need to intake more calories than normal to stay in a healthy physical state and not become to exhausted.

First of all, they're making a sequel to one of my favorite movies? I'm going to cry. Sequels suck. It should be Rene Russo again, if anything. Angelina Jolie??!?!? Again, I'm going to cry. I hope this is a horrible rumor.

SO when is she going to take care of all these kids and get them adjusted to life? Never? Guess she would rather punish us with her horrid acting then be a mother. What a selfish pig. She makes me sick.

I wish someone would tell me to gain weight.....I'm so jealous of her being able to eat whatever she wants with no worry about getting a bigger spare tire or a fatter ass.

I think this is a false story. When she did one of her magazine interviews Angelina said she had nothing lined up and wouldn't be working for awhile. I think Atlas Shrugged was the only project she wanted to do. I think 30lbs is obsessive. I don't think Angelina has ever weighed 130+. She definately looked thinner before her pregnancy but she was never big. Just look at her earlier films and photos.

while she at it she needs a boob job, maybe more lip plumber in her big cow lips. she looks like cuella deville!

They shouldn't remake this movie. Russo backed out, she's smart. I can't see Angie with Brosnan, sorry. And as for those who said she said she would take time off for the babes. She said the same thing after the adoption of Pax and was off working on Wanted in less than a week. This woman can't stand still. I just hope her family doesn't suffer. And I really hope those Ted C blinds that point at her aren't true.

Oh noooooooooooo. This one of my fav movies of all time. I want to BE Rene in that movie. She is so stylist and sexy and self assured and the clothing ! Being a redhead as well they would be perfect for me. boohooo sorry but I wouldnt go to see this with Angelina in the role. Honestly why do they keep getting her to take part? Its not like she draws people to the theatre is it? I wouldnt even seen Beouwolf ( ?sp ) because she was in it - how sad is that?

Well, she did just have twins so I doubt it would be that difficult. Now she just has less baby weight to lose right?
