Ha, we?re getting more details about The Brangelina Wedding from Hello and People Magazine. People led me to believe that Angelina?s wedding gown was made by Luigi Massi, the ?master tailor? of Versace. But Donatella Versace wants everyone to know that SHE designed the gown, Massi just made it, I guess. Donatella gave Us Weekly a look at her sketches for the gown (you can see the sketch here) and Donatella tells Us Weekly: ?Angelina has it all. Beauty, class and brains. I wish the best for her and her wonderful family.? Oh, and she says that Angelina also wore white silk satin pumps by Versace too. Do you want more details? I enjoyed this:
More from Mr. and Mrs. Jolie-Pitt! Angelina Jolie walked down the aisle on Saturday, Aug. 23, to the tune of her husband Brad Pitt humming the “Wedding March.” The couple shared the details behind their super-secret wedding in the latest issue of the UK’s Hello! magazine, including any potential honeymoon plans and how their six kids were actively involved in planning the ceremony.
“We wanted it to be intimate and it was,” the newlyweds told the mag of their ceremony, which was held in a chapel on their Southern French estate, Chateau Miraval. “It was important to us that the day was relaxed and full of laughter. It was such a special day to share with our children and a very happy time for our family.”
Indeed, the Jolie-Pitt kids — Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, 9, Shiloh, 8, and 6-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox — each had a say on his/her involvement in the nondenominational ceremony. “They picked their clothes and their duties,” Brangelina told Hello! “They all took it very seriously. Knox practiced carrying coins and acorns on his little pillow before he got the ring.” (Later, Hello! learned that one of the kids dropped a ring.)
As Us Weekly confirmed last Thursday, Aug. 28, Jolie, 39, walked down the aisle with her eldest sons Maddox and Pax. Daughters Zahara and Vivienne “threw petals gathered from the garden,” their spokesperson told Us, while second oldest daughter Shiloh and youngest son Knox were ring bearers.
According to the mag, when the A-listers kissed at the altar, Shiloh had to stifle herself with the ring cushion to stop laughing out loud.
“They are our best friends and the people closest to us in our lives,” the couple told Hello!
The bride even wanted her kids to make a mark on her custom-designed gown by Atelier Versace — literally. “I wanted the kids to be a part of everything including the dress, because that’s our family,” Jolie told Hello! of her white silk-satin gown embroidered with drawings from her six kids. “That represents the way we live out life together.” Hilariously, one illustration on Jolie’s veil read “Buttock Fatock.”
Even after the ceremony, the newlyweds enjoyed a cake baked by Pax. To celebrate the joyous occasion, the family ate a home-cooked provincial-style meal on the grounds of their estate. Pitt’s parents, William and Jane, as well as his brother Doug and sister Julie, were all present to toast the couple.
As for any potential honeymoon plans? “We are making a film [By the Sea] about an unhappily married couple. It’s not lost on us what a strange honeymoon it is!” Brangelina joked of their film, currently being shot in Malta. As exclusively reported by Us, the two share some “crazy sex scenes” in the movie.
“It’s a wonderful feeling to be married,” the couple concluded. “The children are so happy.”
[From Us Weekly]
I love the details ? Pax baked a cake! Knox practiced his ringbearer duties but Shiloh did not! I get the feeling that Shiloh was the ring-dropper too. That kid is such a handful ? I bet Angelina sees a lot of herself in Shiloh. Hello also noted the fact that Brad did something special to remember Angelina’s mom – Brad had a stone engraved “with a tribute to Bertrand at the spot where they said ‘I do’ in the chapel at Chateau Miraval.” Aw.
LaineyGossip had some of the scans from Hello ? go here to see. The setting looks very minimalist and Maddox is so friggin? tall these days. Oh, and James Haven WAS there. He?s just super-discreet, which is good.

After Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie announced their wedding last week, most outlets claimed that Brad and Angie would be doing a ?working honeymoon? in Malta. Angelina flew from France to Malta to do some pre-production on By the Sea, and it was expected that Brad would join her within a day or two. Instead, Brad has spent much of their first week of marriage away from his bride. OH NOES. COUNTDOWN TO DIVORCE. First, Brad was in England for a photocall for Fury, then he flew to New York, which is where he camped out throughout the three-day weekend. As it turns out, Brad got a job. It?s a weird job too ? he?s been filming a ?short film? directed by Martin Scorsese and he?s working with Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert DeNiro. The short film is basically an advertisement for Melco-Crown Entertainment, a global resorts and casinos conglomerate. Which means? $$$$.
How many short films ever boasted this kind of star wattage? RatPac Entertainment is producing a short being directed by Martin Scorsese that will be used as a campaign for Melco-Crown Entertainment (MCE), Lawrence Ho and James Packer?s global resorts and casino brand.
They got the best cast for a casino-themed film since Steven Soderbergh was making the Ocean?s Eleven films: Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt. The script was written by Wolf Of Wall Street scribe and Boardwalk Empire creator Terence Winter. RatPac?s Brett Ratner and RSA?s Jules Daly are producing and Packer and Ho are executive producing.
The film will premiere next year at the opening of Melco-Crown?s newest movie-themed resort Studio City in Macau, the big gambling mecca that is now part of China. It?s the first time De Niro, Pitt and DiCaprio have worked with Martin Scorsese together in the same film.
DiCaprio has done five with Scorsese, and De Niro eight, but none together until now. De Niro and DiCaprio did This Boy?s Life back in 1993, with De Niro so impressed by the kid that he suggested to his pal Scorsese that he ought to meet DiCaprio. The two met and hit it off pretty well. Maybe this convergence with Pitt is a good warmup for that Frank Sinatra film Scorsese and DiCaprio have been talking about?
[From Deadline]
So, that?s what Brad?s been doing in NYC. He?s been filming this commercial directed by Marty Scorsese. I had to look through Brad?s IMDB to see if he had any connection to Scorsese before this, and I was surprised to learn/remember that Brad was a producer on The Departed. Allegedly, Brad was attached to star in it at one point too. That?s interesting. Obviously, Leo and Bob DeNiro?s histories with Marty are more well-known. Even though this ?short film? is basically just a fancy commercial, I bet it will be pretty charming. More and more, A-list actors are ?selling out? for these kinds of high-paying commercial endeavors. I?ll give it to Brad though ? when he sells out, he does it for major paychecks and with the highest caliber people.

Well, well. I wondered last week if Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were going to sell/give away their wedding photos to People Magazine and Hello, and wouldn?t you know? It happened. I don?t know if People/Hello paid for this exclusive, but I suspect they did. Or at the very least, the magazines made a substantial contribution to one of the Jolie-Pitt foundations or charities. You can read Hello?s exclusive here, and here?s People?s article:
When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie went about planning their big day, they didn’t have to look far to find the perfect wedding planners: their six children.
The intimate Aug. 23 ceremony ? attended by just 20 friends and family members ? was held in the chapel of Chteau Miraval, the family’s estate in the French village of Correns. The wedding ? including exclusive photos of the ceremony, Jolie’s unique dress (decorated with her children’s artwork!) and the entire family’s celebration ? is featured in this week’s issue of PEOPLE, in conjunction with Hello! magazine internationally.
Each child had a key role to play: Eldest sons Maddox, 13, and Pax, 10, walked their mom down the aisle; flower girls Zahara, 9, and Vivienne, 6, tossed petals gathered from the garden; and Shiloh, 8, and Knox, 6, served as ring bearers. The kids also helped write their parents’ vows. And Pax baked the cake!
“It was important to us that the day was relaxed and full of laughter,” Pitt, 50, and Jolie, 39, tell PEOPLE. “It was such a special day to share with our children and a very happy time for our family.”
Even Jolie’s dress was an expression of her kids’ creativity: Luigi Massi, the master tailor at Atelier Versace, sewed dozens of designs from her children’s drawings into the dress and veil.
“Luigi is like family to me and I couldn’t imagine anyone else making this dress,” says Jolie. “He knows and cares for the children and it was great fun putting it together.”
Pitt wore a suit from his closet ? with a tie borrowed from one of his sons because Pitt forgot to pack his. Zahara’s dress was designed by family friend Adama Kebe. Maddox, Pax, Shiloh, and Knox wore black suits (Shiloh’s included shorts and a top hat), and Vivienne wore a white dress from her closet. Jeweler Robert Procop, who designed Jolie’s engagement ring, created the couple’s wedding bands.
[From People]
I?m not disappointed with the kids at all, but THIS DRESS is a nightmare. I?m not even talking about the kids? drawings on the back, although the execution of that is? not very good. But the silhouette, the design, the style of the dress just doesn?t suit her. Angelina is good in streamlined clothes and I really don?t get the bust of this dress at all. Ugh! Oh well. It wasn?t my wedding. Everything else is fine, I guess. I?m just grumbling about the dress. (And Shiloh wore WEDDING SHORTS! Montenegro Style!)

They opted for a teeny-tiny wedding last weekend in France, but what Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's nuptials lacked in attendance, it made up for in elegance.
According to an E! News source, the ?Girl Interrupted? actress wore a white dress when she said ?I Do? with her ?Fight Club? hubby.
The bridal gown was ?very traditional, but very Angie. It was comfortable but plain white floor-length antique lace and silk.?
Ms. Jolie also "definitely wore something that once belonged to [her mother] Marcheline Bertrand- a small gold locket with a photo of her mom inside it. She also had a veil and when Brad lifted it [he] gasped because she looked so stunning."
As for the Jolie-Pitt kids, "The boys all wore tiny matching cream linen suits which were just like Brad's [tux] while the girls had each chosen a dress to match their own individual style and they had them specially made."

Um, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got married this weekend. They went for the weekend when everyone was concentrating on the Emmys and VMAs. THEY ARE MARRIED. THEY GOT MARRIED IN FRANCE.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were married Saturday in Chateau Miraval, France, says a spokesman for the couple.
Jolie and Pitt wed Saturday in a small chapel in a private ceremony attended by family and friends. In advance of the nondenominational civil ceremony, Pitt and Jolie also obtained a marriage license from a local California judge. The judge also conducted the ceremony in France.
The couple’s children took part in the wedding. Jolie walked the aisle with her eldest sons Maddox and Pax. Zahara and Vivienne threw petals. Shiloh and Knox served as ring bearers, the spokesman says.

The Associated Press confirmed the news on Twitter as well. This is not a drill. THIS IS HAPPENING. How did they manage to keep it so undercover?

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt had one of their rare date nights on Saturday in West Hollywood. They went out to Ago, an Italian joint owned by Robert DeNiro. I?m sure they didn?t go to the place because it?s owned by DeNiro, although Angelina does have some connection to him ? Robert DeNiro cast her in The Good Shepherd back in 2005 and he praised her a great deal during the promotion of the film. She filmed that movie when she was pregnant with Shiloh. Just a little Brangelina History for you. So many connections!
Anyway, I?m guessing they were able to have a date night now because they?ve been on the move a lot over the past few months, with Angelina promoting Maleficent stateside and overseas ? she just got back from Japan a few days ago! ? and co-hosting the Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict. Angelina gets to take a break, sort of, for the rest of the summer. And by that I mean Unbroken is in post-production, so she?s probably still editing it and doing sound, music, all of that. But that?s quiet studio work for the most part and I?m hoping the Jolie-Pitt family lays low for the rest of the summer. Then, in the fall and winter, the Oscar Campaign will happen. I wonder how it will go.
Meanwhile, I?ve been sort of wondering about Brad?s big (Oscar-bait?) film, Fury. Fury comes out this winter as well and it could conceivably be another strong, quiet Oscar contender. But then there?s Shia Labeouf. The Beef is probably going to mess with the film promotion. A lot. Bedhead and I were chatting about how it would go if The Beef is still acting crazy and Bedhead theorized that Brad will simply cut Shia out of the promotion altogether and put the focus on some of the other actors, like Logan Lerman, Scott Eastwood and Michael Pena. Wouldn?t be the worst idea.

SACK SLEEVES. That?s how Angelina Jolie?s need for sackiness has manifested itself today. A beautiful charcoal grey suit which would have fit her like a dream, save for the sack sleeves. Angelina is so funny. Anyway, these are some photos from Day 4 of the Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict, with Brad Pitt joining Jolie for the second day in a row. Superficial comment: I don?t like her hairstyle here. Too ?old? and mumsy. Also: I know some people will start yelling about how she looks exhausted. I imagine she IS exhausted. Plus, she?s been crying a lot during the summit. She probably cried off all of her makeup.
Yesterday, Angelina was invited to Clarence House where she met Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall. They had a nice chat:
Camilla and the Oscar winning actress met at Clarence House to discuss their separate campaigns to aid rape victims. The two women have worked in recent years to highlight the issue of sexual violence and they were joined by Foreign Secretary William Hague.
The discussions covered the common ground between the women’s campaigns, with the pair sharing ideas. Camilla, 66, has visited rape crisis centres across the UK and spearheaded a scheme to provide victims with toiletries after undergoing forensic examinations. The Duchess of Cornwall came up with the idea of providing rape survivors with toiletries after speaking to women during a visit to a rape crisis centre in Derbyshire. Last year she said she hoped the project would help people feel better at a traumatic time in their lives. The two-year pilot scheme will see shower and bath products donated by firms collected into wash bags and given to victims.

On one side, I?m happy to see that at least one member of the royal family thought it would be a good idea to participate in the Global Summit. On the other side? how is this an issue that only ONE member of the royal family can get behind? It would have been great to see Prince Harry, William, Kate, Charles, or the York princesses get involved too. It?s not like being against rape is a controversial position.

Brad Pitt spent most of last Fall in England filming the World War II movie Fury. Personally, I?m kind of ?over? Hollywood?s insistence on making WWII films and glorifying that historical era, but just when I think that, I get caught up in a Band of Brothers marathon and I?m thinking, ?I wish they would make more stuff like this.? Seriously, Band of Brothers is amazing. One of the best miniseries ever.
Anyway, it really seemed like the production of Fury dragged on and on ? for the first time ever, Brad and Angelina were working on separate continents for months while she filmed Unbroken in Australia, and it seemed like that wasn?t supposed to be the plan. I kind of wondered if Fury was a mess, that we were going to get a repeat of the clusterwhoops that went down during World War Z?s production, and whether Pitt could weather another storm like that. So? I guess I?m glad to see that Fury seems to have come together reasonably well in post-production. Sony just revealed the first footage from Fury at the LA gaming expo E3.
It looks good. A character study set in WWII? Sure. The set up seems to be a bit like Saving Private Ryan, only they?re not searching for Private Ryan, they?re just fighting in the war. I guess that would make Brad the Tom Hanks character? And I?m fine with that. Brad does look good in fatigues and he?s a better actor than most people think. Will The Beef be the weak link? You never know. Also: LOVE Michael Pena.
Fury will be released on November 14th. Oscar contender?

Ten years ago, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were finishing the first phase of filming for Mr. & Mrs. Smith. They would spend the summer apart (as Angelina traveled around with Maddox, while Brad filmed Oceans 12 in Europe while Jennifer Aniston came along for the ride), then return to LA in the Fall of 2004 to complete filming on MAMS. That film changed everything, at least gossip-wise. It was also the biggest film of both of their careers at that point ? it made the most money, it debuted at #1, and it was a well-needed hit for both of them. But it also made them a couple.
Ten years later? they?re still together, they?ve got six kids, they?ve accumulated Oscars and other blockbuster films and they?ve managed to do it all without ever working (on screen) together ever again. Unless you count A Mighty Heart, which Brad produced and Angelina starred in. They were supposed to do Ridley Scott?s The Counselor together, but Angelina dropped out (probably because she was undergoing a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery). Still, it?s unusual that they haven?t managed to find a project that they could do together in all this time. So, of course, Angelina wrote something for both of them.
Here is a film that instantly becomes the one every studio will want on their slate. Angelina Jolie is in early talks to star with Brad Pitt in an original script that she has written. It?s in the early talking stages and nothing is solidified, but I hear it?s happening. I don?t know a lot more at this point.
The film hasn?t locked distribution, but it will team Jolie and Pitt together for the first time since 2005?s Mr. And Mrs. Smith. That film displayed an intense chemistry onscreen, and this was before they became a couple offscreen. Jolie is working on post-production on Unbroken, the adaptation she directed of the Laura Hillenbrand book. Universal has set a December 25 release for the harrowing survival tale of Olympic track prodigy-turned-WWII POW Lou Zamperini. It?s expected to be right in the Oscar mix. Unbroken was a hotly contested directing project, and Jolie won the job with a presentation that wowed the studio, where Donna Langley also was very impressed with her directorial debut, In The Land Of Blood And Honey. She next stars in Disney?s Maleficent, which opens May 30 with Jolie playing the title character in the revisionist version of the fairy tale.
Will reveal more when I know it. Pitt is coming off 12 Years A Slave and most recently wrapped the David Ayer-directed WWII tank movie Fury, which QED produced and Sony is releasing. Stay tuned. She is repped by UTA and Media Talent Group Pitt by CAA and Brillstein Entertainment.
[From Deadline]
I need to know the plot. Is it a romance? A comedy? Doubtful. While I polish my Brangeloonie badges regularly, I don?t think it?s a Brangeloonie Catastrophe to suggest that Angelina probably can?t write comedies. So, it?s probably a drama, maybe something with some romance. Maybe it?s about war and refugees and?? God knows. But I am glad that they?re going to work together again. It?s sweet.

Over the past few weeks, there?s been a flurry of activity with Oscar-winner Brad Pitt and his future projects as a producer and actor. Allegedly, he?s circling a World War II-era romantic thriller, and he?s planning to produce a film about the hacker at the center of the Steubenville rape case. As a producer, Brad (to his credit) has always been attracted to smaller passion projects and unconventional stuff, and I?ve been looking forward to seeing how he parlays his Oscar win into more interesting producing and starring projects. And here?s the big one I was waiting for: Brad has signed on to play General Stanley McChrystal, the former commander of the Afghanistan war.
Brad Pitt is locking in yet another war flick on his list of films. Angelina Jolie’s handsome significant other is going to star as Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former commanding general of international and U.S. forces in Afghanistan, in the upcoming movie The Operators, according to The Los Angeles Times.
The military drama will be written and directed by Australian director David Michod, who was behind the indie film Animal Kingdom a few ago, and will be based off of journalist Michael Hastings? 2012 book The Operators: The Wild and Terrifying Inside Story of America’s War in Afghanistan.
McChrystal made headlines when he was fired in 2010 after making some controversial remarks in a Rolling Stone profile by the late Michael Hastings, in which General McChrystal and his staff criticized administration officials, the president and his advisers.
President Barack Obama let his top Afghanistan war commander go after only a brief meeting in the Oval Office, according to a report by The New York Times, replacing McChrystal with his boss and mentor, Gen. David H. Petraeus, and sending a clear signal that the current war strategy will continue despite setbacks and growing public doubts.
[From E! News]
McChrystal?s Rolling Stone interview was and is a pinnacle of modern journalism and further evidence that great profiles and interviews are still possible in the American media. Rolling Stone?s Michael Hastings spent weeks with McChrystal in Afghanistan and Paris, trailing him for so long that McChrystal basically forgot he was there and let down his guard enough to say some fascinating, insulting things. From my memory, it?s not like Pres. Obama fired McChrystal outright ? when the RS piece came out, McChrystal knew he was out of a job and I think the conversation was basically ?should Obama let him resign or should he be fired for cause??
When most people think of McChrystal, they think of that interview but he was (and presumably is) a brilliant strategic mind and it will be fascinating to see Brad Pitt play him. The idea of this is kind of fascinating. This is a really good part for Brad.
