Angelina Jolie Snags Jennifer Aniston’s Oscar Role

Hollywood insiders expected Jennifer Aniston to play the widow of slain Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in an upcoming biopic.

Aniston apparently thought she would too.

But now the former “Friends” star is reportedly fuming over ex-hubby Brad Pitt’s latest casting decision.

Pitt has chosen to give the movie role to his present squeeze Angelina Jolie.

It was Aniston who had convinced Pearl's wife to grant the film rights to Pitt and Aniston’s production company, Plan B, in the first place.

Ironically, Aniston had agreed to give Brad the ownership of the company as part of their divorce settlement.

A source told the UK Sun, "She's horrified that Brad has handed the role meant for her to Angelina.

It appears as though Jolie not only appropriated Aniston’s spouse, she managed to obtain a role that had previously been viewed as a potential Oscar shot for Aniston.
