Ang Lee is very likely to get his third Best Director Oscar nomination tomorrow, and Life of Pi will probably scoop up a Best Picture nomination as well-- a nice comeback for the director who last made the little-seen comedy Taking Woodstock. And now that Lee is mulling his next project, he seems to be leaning toward making another project that's huge and high-profile, and that has lost several even huger directors along the way.Producer Scott Rudin has been shepherding a Cleopatra since 2006, and the likes of David Fincher, James Cameron and Paul Greengrass have all considered it before departing. Now Lee tells The Hollywood Reporter that "I'm about to read the script," and that after all the other films he's done, "It just feels right." Lee continues, "What does it have in common with any of them? They’re all totally different! That’s what makes this perfect.”Lee's right that his filmography is hugely varied, and he's probably feeling pretty good after the giant creative risk of LIfe of Pi paid off so well. With Jolie still attached to Cleopatra it should have no problem getting made as soon as a director commits, and Lee's recent buzz could probably make him just the director to do it. Can he finally help Cleopatra get off the ground and put Jolie in the role she was born for?.

For those of you who love salacious gossip, this one’s for you. Perez Hilton’s gossip rag is reporting that Angelina Jolie’s love for Brad Pitt is luke warm at best – while her burning passion lies with former flame – bad boy Colin Farrell.Reports say that Jolie was infatuated with Ferrell back when they filmed Alexander together and although he took the bait and had relations with the actress, he also had relations with others as well, driving Jolie crazy. Apparently, Ferrell got wind of her infatuation and cut her off during the promotion of the film, and that’s when it’s said that she met the then-married Pitt.Hilton reports, “she didn’t feel the same kind of maddening infatuation for Brad that she experienced with Colin. So it was more like settling.”However, it’s been widely reported that Jolie and Pitt actually may have tied the knot over the holidays, with The London Telegraph saying that the world’s most anticipated event happened Christmas Day, during a family vacation in the Caribbean.In related celebrity news, you can bet on what Kanye and Kim will name their baby in Sports Interactions news odds today.

At least they're prepared for the slightest hint of trouble.One of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's kids accidentally pushed a 'panic alarm' inside their house last night that prompted a Herculean response from the LAPD, according to TMZ.Police cars AND a helicopter were sent to the family's Los Feliz home at 9pm after an alarm went off.TMZ's sources say the police were told it was a huge mistake when they arrived at the compound in the trendy east hills, and informed by a nanny that one of the children pressed the alarm by mistake.Brad and Angelina weren't at home but were informed about the false alarm by the nanny. The family have just returned from Donna Karan's home in Turks and Caicos where they spent the holidays with their families, and all those children. But it seems the family may not be taking care of Maddox, Shiloh, Knox, Vivienne, Pax and Zahara alone.Architectural Digest editor-at-large Jeffrey Slonim posted on his blog: 'At lunch on a small island three away from Parrot Cay,'A woman said she’d heard from a local that [Pitt and Jolie] were in town with two nannies per child. Count ’em, 12 nannies!'.But their youngsters had better not get to comfortable on the island, as reports have said the power couple are taking their kids around the world for the holidays.Witnesses on the island claim the family are loving being away from the limelight.An insider said: 'They are at Donna’s house, without Donna, and have been loving the island because it is so secluded.

Even stars get starstruck!As Amy Poehler and Tina Fey prepare to co-host the 2013 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday, Jan. 13, they're just like any other fans -- except for the fact that they each have their own shows on NBC, of course."The big thing is that television and film get to be together. So the beautiful people of film rub shoulders with the horrible, disgusting people of television," Poehler quips in a new teaser for the broadcast. "And that's always nice to see."One "beautiful person of film" the Parks and Recreation actress can't wait to meet? Brad Pitt's better half. "I'm hoping to meet Angelina Jolie," the comedienne says, joking with Fey that she's already had plenty of "imaginary conversations" with the A-list movie star. "I'm hoping to have a real one onstage or on camera live at some point."Her co-host is less enthused. "I hate everyone," the 30 Rock actress deadpans. "I don't want to meet anyone." So what does she want? "I personally would like to win Best Picture. Just me, as a person, winning Best Picture, I think would be unprecedented. Especially 'cause I didn't even really make a movie this year," she jests.But seriously, folks. "We decided to host because the Golden Globes seem like they're pretty fun," Poehler says."Yes. We've been to them before, and it's a very kind of sloppy, loud party," Fey adds. "And that seemed like our kind of thing."
