After one of the most controversial divorces in Hollywood history, it’s safe to say that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would never share the screen again.
However, according to a report from the website Page Six, they were reportedly offered an impressive deal to act together in a new production.
This was stated by producer Danny Rossner, who said they were offered a “blank check” to put in whatever amount they wanted to receive in exchange for putting their differences aside.
He also claimed that he takes his offer seriously and has already raised around $60 million from his sponsors, which he hopes will be enough to get them to reconcile.
The movie that Rossner wants Brad and Angelina to star in is a romance set at the Hotel Martinez in Cannes, France, during World War II, and is based on a true story.
Brad would play Emmanuel Martinez, the owner of the hotel, and Angelina would play Emma Digard, Martinez’s mistress. The script means they would have to perform intimate scenes together, Rossner admitted.
“There’s a love scene… It’s not vulgar, but there are very heavy love scenes. [Martinez] had a wife and a mistress,” explained the producer.
“At the moment, I believe Brad Pitt is in the $20 to $25 million [per film] range, and Angelina Jolie is in the $15 million range. We’re prepared to offer them 50% above their usual rate,” he said to The New York Post.
Brad met Angelina on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2004, and as a couple, they became the most famous actors on the planet, known as the “Brangelina” duo.
Together, they became parents to six children, both biological and adopted: Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16.
