Are Angelina Jolie and Lady Gaga battling for the lead role in the Cleopatra biopic? That’s the claim in one of this week’s tabloids. Gossip Cop looked into the situation and we’ve learned the truth.Jolie has been attached to star in a movie about the famous Egyptian queen for several years, but according to OK!, Gaga may swoop in and steal the role. An alleged insider tells the magazine, “Angie has wanted to work on the film for a very long time, but it looks like she’s going to have to go up against Lady Gaga for the lead.” The supposed source goes on to say that following the success of A Star Is Born, the singer is being offered tons of film projects, but she wants Cleopatra “more than anything.”“Gaga feels like she’s at the perfect point in her career to tackle a role like this,” adds the questionable tipster, who goes on to say that the singer has a better chance than Jolie of nabbing the part, but the actress won’t back down without a fight. “Both ladies are prepared to try to outdo each other by any means possible,” adds the seemingly phony source.
The outlet’s story is based on claims from a so-called “industry insider,” but Gossip Cop reached out to Gaga’s spokesperson, who had no knowledge of the singer being in the running for the Cleopatra movie. It’s safe to say that Gaga’s own rep knows more about her career plans than a tabloid’s anonymous and untraceable “source.”It’s also worth noting, Cleopatra has been in development for nearly a decade, and it’s unclear if filming will get underway anytime soon. Jolie has been trying to get the project off the ground for several years, but there have been many hiccups along the way. The last update on the Cleopatra movie came more than a year ago when screenwriter David Scarpa spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about his take on the story. There hasn’t been any news about the project since.Additionally, the Hollywood trade publications almost always break major casting news, but not a single industry outlet has reported that Gaga is circling the biopic. The singer is certainly a hot commodity in Hollywood following A Star Is Born, but there’s no indication she’s pursuing a full-time movie career. Last week, Gaga kicked off her Las Vegas residency, which runs through November. It’s hard to imagine the singer is actively campaigning for Cleopatra when her schedule is booked throughout 2019. Regardless, Gaga’s rep confirms the story is made-up.

Most of the upcoming fantasy film Come Away was filmed in the UK.But on Saturday star Angelina Jolie was spotted before she shot one of the last scenes of the movie in Los Angeles, dressed in a full length Victorian-style black dress and a blonde bouffant hairdo.It turned out, Saturday was the last day of filming.Two other photos show the former Mrs. Brad Pitt in her street cloths as she hurried along with her new blonde tresses still intact.A third picture shows co-star David Oyelowo arriving on the set.'Our film COME AWAY is now in the can! Can’t wait to share this magical reimagining of Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan with you all,' Oyelowo said afterwards in the caption of an Instagram photo that showed him with cast and crew members.In the selfie, Oyelowo flashed a big grin as he tried to fit as many faces as he could into the frame.While everyone seemed to be dressed in modern 2018 garb, Jolie stood out like someone from the 1800s with her voluminous blond locks and dress that covered her from head to toe.Stylists had her tresses parted off her chiseled face but added some little tendrils of curls to flow down both sides of her face. Last week, the actress was spotted in another regal costume while on set in Los Angeles.Her character Rose's signature blonde bouffant was adorned with a rust color flower and her burnt orange gown flowed behind her as she headed to shoot a scene. The fantasy drama is a retooling of two classic children's tales, Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland.Angelina and Oyelowo play Rose and Jack, respectively, who are the parents of Peter and Alice.
Come Away has a darker overtone than the cartoon versions of the stories where Peter and Alice work to help their parents overcome the death of one of their children.However, the fantasy drama will still take viewers through the looking glass and to Neverland .The Maleficent star has been busy juggling several projects as she and ex-husband Brad Pitt, 54, continue their ongoing custody battle over their children. Last month the couple reportedly met for a secret meeting after a particularly tense few months in their divorce proceedings.'Brad and Angelina actually set up a secret meeting at her house. It’s the first time they have truly gotten together to make things work since their group therapy with the children,' a source told ET in September.'Brad and Angie’s meeting was a success. They are going to stay with the plan set forth through the courts,' the insider continued.'Angelina decided it was time to try to make things work and Brad was relieved and very ready for the offer. The former mega-star couple - who split in 2016 after a decade together - share six children: Maddox, 17, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 12, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 10.
