Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took off from Los Angeles International Airport Sunday, May 10, with LOTS of extra bodyguards in tow, making us wonder ... where were they going and why the heightened security???Well we think we have the answer. The pair have been M.I.A. all week and where's a place they might not be "found" by fans or paparazzi? We're guessing their trip was to Jordan, to finalize the adoption of a Syrian refugee ofphan. In fact, a bodyguard at LAX that night was begging our photographer, "Don't shoot -- don't report this, the fact that their leaving LA." The couple was so tightly surrounded by security detail, our shooter couldn't have gotten a snap even if he'd tried.As we reported just a month ago, the Hollywood super couple and parents of six, have wanted to adopt another child for a while and decided to help a child who lost his/her parents in Syria's war against ISIS, bringing attention to the plight of the Syrian people displaced by the conflict.Angelina, a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, spoke to the UN Council three weeks ago, in New York, blasting the international group for not doing enough for Syria and the country's refugees. In January, she wrote an op-ed for the New York Times about Syrian and Iraqi refugees who "can't go home."Is the couple in the war-torn region now, rescuing a child from the horrors inflicted by ISIS? We wouldn't be surprised ...

MAD MAX star Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie have been linked to the next major Marvel comic book adaptation of Captain Marvel aka Carol Danvers.After recent criticisms that the Avengers films only have one ‘token’ female leading character, Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow, Captain Marvel will be the first major female superhero in the Marvel Universe to front her own film.Apparently both actresses are keen to be involved in such a ground-breaking project.“Marvel has been courting Angie to direct the project, and Charlize is a clear fan favourite for the starring role,” an insider said.Theron is currently drawing rave reviews from comic book and sci-fi fans and critics ass Imperator Furiosa in Mad Max: Fury Road.The two Hollywood beauties have recently become friends after Theron started dating Sean Penn, who is a close buddy of Jolie’s hubbie Brad Pitt.
“The girls realised they have a very similar outlook on life and quickly bonded over everything from their adopted children to their prospective Hollywood projects,” a source told the American edition of OK! Magazine.“If Charlize were to get the part, Angie would almost certainly sign on to work with her new pal.” A little like the ever-changing incarnations of the Green Lantern, there have been eight different Captain Marvels. The upcoming film will focus on the story of one of the female Captain Marvels, Carol Danvers, a human woman who receives powers from an encounter from the alien Kree Empire.Despite feverish fan speculation, casting has not yet been announced and Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer has also been linked to the role, as well as Emily Blunt and Battlestar Galactica’s Katie Sackhoff.Captain Marvel will be the twentieth film to be released by Marvel Studios for the Marvel Cinematic Universe and is slated for release in 2018.
