According to Celebrity Net Worth, Angelina Jolie's net worth is £122 million and she earned a staggering £11 million last year.Is Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie deep in a financial trouble? RadarOnline has recently come up with a bizarre report saying the ritzy Hollywood actress' wealth is in jeopardy as she was spotted shopping for Christmas gifts at America's most popular discount store — Target.Also read: Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and children will reunite for Christmas? A dubious insider told the webloid, "Angie loves Target. It's one of her favourite stores and a place where she gets lots of her Christmas gifts. She has staff that can get her anything and go anywhere for her, yet one place she has been spotted is Target." The insider further went on to add that Brad Pitt's estranged wife "is obsessed with finding cheap new deals — despite her millions!" RadarOnline also put a step forward to ask the readers, "Do you think Jolie is just collecting coupons for fun, or is she having money issues because of her nasty legal battle with Brad Pitt?" As usual, Gossip Cop looked into the story and debunked he entire report because TMZ already reported that Angelina Jolie will not be seeking spousal support from her husband post the divorce. As noted by The Sun, the 42-year-old actress's net worth is £122 million (via Celebrity Net Worth). Hence Jolie's wealth is not in jeopardy.Secondly, it is true that Jolie has been spotted in Target earlier, just like she goes to grocery store and flea markets as well.Gossip Cop noted that Jolie's sighting's at Target has nothing to do with either her wealth or her ongoing divorce battle with Brad Pitt.Like her, even former first lady Michelle Obama is also a well known fan of the popular discount store regardless she is also a millionaire.Previously, RadarOnline's sister website OK! Magazine also allegedly claimed that "Jolie couldn't afford to finalise her divorce from Pitt" her cash flow was affecting the split negotiations. Then also Gossip Cop refuted all the rumours.Notably, the Academy Award-winning actress earned a staggering £11 million last year.According to Gossip Cop, these sites have "simply combined the ongoing divorce, her past trips to Target and the Christmas shopping season to form an unsubstantiated narrative about 'financial trouble.'

David Fincher was developing it for a while, and more recently “Blade Runner 2049” and “Prisoners” director Denis Villeneuve became attached. Now “All the Money in the World” writer David Scarpa has revealed that the upcoming “Cleopatra” biopic won’t be your typical period drama.Angelina Jolie has been attached to the film which was based on Stacy Schiff’s book “Cleopatra: A Life,” whether that’s still the case is unsure. Schiff and Brian Helgeland worked on the script prior to Scarpa coming onboard and he tells Heat Vision expect it to be decidedly more intense and energetic than a period piece: “It’s similar [to ‘All the Money in the World’] in that there’s a lot of research involved and there’s a question with all that of how do you want to do it and how do you make something new out of it? With Getty, part of the idea was to take two genres we felt we knew, which was the kidnapping genre and what we’ll call the ‘great man’ genre – the ‘Citizen Kane’ genre – and smash them together and make something new out of them.
With ‘Cleopatra’ … instead of doing the movie as the prestige picture – the three-hour, lots of pageantry, people with fans and English accents and all that stuff – [we] really treat it as a political thriller. Dirty, bloody, lots of people swearing and having sex and all of that other stuff and just treat it as a two-hour, lean, mean political thriller, full of assassinations, etc. Just going the opposite direction from the way we think that movie is going to go.”This approach doesn’t always work, Michael Mann’s Dillinger biopic “Public Enemies” showed how telling a period tale with modern thriller sensibility and filming techniques like steadicam doesn’t necessarily work.When “Cleopatra” will go into production isn’t known as Villeneuve is slated to film an adaptation of Frank Herbert’s “Dune” next.

Alicia Vikander will be picking up a bow and arrow to play Lara Croft in the upcoming Tomb Raider movie reboot next year, but she's very aware that she's not the first actress to take on the role of the iconic video game character.Talking to our sister publication Total Film magazine, Vikander talked about Angelina Jolie's version and how her Lara Croft will differ. “[Angelina] made that an iconic role,” says Vikander. “I knew we wouldn’t be able to redo that, and that’s not what we’re trying to do either. We go back to the beginning, and tell the origin story.” At the beginning of the 2018 movie, Lara's backstory has dispensed with the privilege and butlers, and she now works for a bicycle courier company and lives in a communal space while she figures out what she wants to do with her life. It certainly marks a change of pace from the 2001 movie, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and its risible 2003 sequel, The Cradle of Life. “What I like is that there will be a lot of young people, a lot of girls, who feel like they can relate to her,” Vikander continues. “She’s trying to figure out her path in life, who she is, and what her history is.” Director Roar Uthaug adds that his main goal was “to make the audience care about Lara Croft and invest in her as a real character.” You’ll get to see the new Lara Croft in action come March 16, 2018, but to tide you over until then why not pick up a copy of the new issue of Total Film which includes on-set interviews with Vikander, Uthaug, and co-stars Walton Goggins and Dominic West? Plus, it also includes a full 2018 movie preview.
