Angelina Jolie wrapping "Salt", Brad Pitt to start shooting "Moneyball" June 11th

June has only just started but it’s already kicking off to be a busy month. Angelina Jolie is wrapping up the final week of filming for Salt. That’s good for her because she must be getting tired with the physical level of this acting job, but man I’m going to miss seeing her in that black wig and trench coat!

It’s going to feel like forever before we finally get to see the final product up on the big screen!

Meanwhile, the family will likely be packing up their belongings from their current temporary home in the Oyster Bay area and getting ready to move back to Los Angeles as soon as possible – according to the L.A. Times, Brad Pitt is scheduled to start filming Moneyball on June 11th.

Brad  Pitt Sex and the City

The article goes into a lot of detail about how the movie came to be, and how they ended up being lucky enough to get Brad in the lead role:

A year or so ago, Pitt took an interest in the project, which of course put it on a front burner at the studio. Pitt was a natural for the part. As DeLuca put it: “If you try to think of a movie star who could embody someone like Beane — a former athlete who’s an incredibly physical specimen with movie good looks — you pretty much get to Brad Pitt right away.”

I have to confess that other than hockey and Superbowl football, I’m not a huge sports fan, but of course my interest perks right up when Brad Pitt becomes attached to a movie. I don’t know a lot about baseball so it was good to read the article to get a better grasp of what the movie is exactly about.

I wonder how long it will take for Brad to film his part. I know that Angelina has been filming for quite awhile now, but that’s probably due to it being such a stunt-heavy action flick. It didn’t seem like it took very long for Brad to film Inglourious Basterds, so maybe with a bit of luck the Jolie-Pitt family will get a chance to take some rest and relaxation time together – France or New Orleans perhaps?

In the meantime, maybe we’ll see some Brad and Angelina outings while they’re in Los Angeles!

    I think it’ll be great to see Brad in a role that’s a little lighter!

    dhc- I hope Lost City of Z isn’t filming this summer. If it is, then that means that Brad basically lied when he said at Cannes that they’ll be spending the summer in France.

    Now it`s Angie`s time to baby sit and Brad time to work. They are one solid and happy family.
    I`m so annoyed to read the neverending lies of these tabloids that this beautiful couple is splitting. I never believed this crap, though, but it`s so disappointing. I know it`s not only them who is the center of this malicious gossips but other celebrities as well. I wonder if there is any law protecting their rights to privacy? How can another human beings plant vicious lies to other people?

    joliepittfanatic- sorry I made the wrong choice of words, it must be caring for their kids not babysitting.

    My husband and most of our male friends always say they a babysitting their kids. I don’t really take it to heart, besides in my opinion they are babysitting they always do all the fun stuff and leave the parenting (ie homework, discipline, etc. to the wives)
    The other point I wanted to make is that Brad probably didn’t lie at Cannes it’s just things come up and as adults sometime we don’t have a choice as schedule’s change. I’m sure they will spend at least some sort of holiday in France during the summer months.
