"You don't need to bend bullets anymore. You need to bend ideas." Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov has revealed he has a unique idea in mind if he were to ever make a sequel to the 2008 action-thriller.Loosely based on J. G. Jones and Mark Millar's comic book series of the same name, the original sees Common, Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie play three weaponry whizzes who train James McAvoy's meek Wesley Gibson to be an expert assassin.Rumours of a follow-up have been around since its release and now, Bekmambetov has stated that he'd be keen to do one in Screenlife, an innovative format that sees stories told entirely from the POV of a character's laptop or smartphone screens. Think Searching, or Bekmambetov's horror outing Unfriended."I cannot imagine an assassin in today's world would run with a gun. Why? He will use drones, he will use computer technology, probably," the filmmaker explained to Deadline recently. "You don't need to bend bullets anymore. You need to bend ideas."During the chat, Bekmambetov also went on to say that applying the Screenlife method has made making movies much easier during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, as actors can continue to self-isolate at home while they produce new content."During this crazy time, we have been living in Screenlife mode, and it is very organic to produce movies because they can be done while people are home in their safe place," he explained. "We are all in different cities, and we can record screens without meeting each other. It's the nature of this language, this Screenlife format, to work like this." According to the publication, Bekmambetov has just signed a 5-picture deal with Universal, off the back of the success of Unfriended, which cost around $1 million to make and made $65 million worldwide. Might Wanted 2 wind up being one of them?

All the kids have been looking forward to Shiloh's birthday and plan to celebrate with a birthday cake.'Brad is so proud of Shiloh and who she has become. He loves that she always stays true to herself and is good to her brothers and sisters.'The Once Upon A Time in Hollywood star's marriage to Angelina, 44, was officially declared over in April 2019 and it was reported that the relationship was 'the best it's been since their split'.A source said at the time: 'Brad and Angelina have come a long way.'To the surprise of many of their closest friends, their communication has improved tremendously and they're both dedicated to co-parenting.'Their kids have a custody schedule and that's made a huge difference for the whole family. The schedule has alleviated any of the planning pressures Brad and Angelina have faced in the past. Now the kids spend time with both their parents and are happy and thriving.'
Earlier this month UsWeekly said the same.'Things between Brad and Angelina are better than they have been,' a source told the site. 'They’re more cordial — they’re aiming toward resolutions that work for each of them.' The insider also said that Pitt does not have contact with Maddox and Pax.At 18, Maddox is allowed to do what he wants. He has been at college in South Korea, but reportedly came home with the lockdown from COVID-19 began.It is not known why Brad does not see Pax. It also helps that Brad and Angelina have a new agreement: Pitt currently sees the younger children 'every few days,' a second source told the publication.Living only 10 minutes apart in Los Feliz - he in his large compound that he has owned for 20 years and she is in her $25M home Cecil B DeMille once lived in - makes it all very easy.Jolie has also been impressed by Pitt's continued sobriety. He stopped drinking after their split. He even told GQ magazine that he could drink anyone under the table, but now he prefers to stay off alcohol.This comes after a claim that he has been seeing a lot of 31-year-old Arrested Development actress Alia Shawkat.She was photographed leaving the star's residence last week.
The beauty has been to the Hollywood icon's home 'plenty' as she lives just 10 minutes away, according to a Wednesday report from UsWeekly. 'They're hanging out plenty,' a source said.'They're only about 10 minutes away from each other, so Alia will bike or walk to Brad's place whenever they have time to chill.'It was added that her visits to the cover boy's pad is 'all very organic and easy.'The pair have been ordering food in like 'burgers and pizza,' said an insider.And sometimes 'they go for a drive down the coast' in one of his luxury automobiles.It has been claimed that she inspires his art work and gives him direction as she is an art aficionado.'She's been by his side at his art studio, helping him brainstorm projects to get involved in, and vice versa,' said an Us source.The two met in 2019 through mutual friends, it has been claimed.They have been seen together nonstop, at art shows, concerts and out to dinner.Pitt has joked about being single since he split from Jolie in 2016, even saying winning an award was good for his Tinder profile.He later said that was just a joke.But spending four years with no romance is very unlike Brad who tends to hop from woman to woman.He dated Kim Hubbard and Sara Hart pre-fame.Then moved on to Robin Givens, Sinitta, Shalene McCall, Christina Applegate, Jill Schoelen, Elizabeth Daily and Juliette Lewis once in Los Angeles.Next came bigger stars like Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston then Jolie.Since splitting from Gia star Jolie, he has been linked to Kate Hudson, Charlize Theron and Neri Oxman. Meanwhile, Angie - who used to date Val Klimer - urged congress to increase their food stamps for underprivileged children who are not getting their school lunches as schools are closed.
