Angelina Jolie to be Unforgiven
Just this past weekend it was announced the queen of Hollywood Angelina Jolie was going to make her directorial debut with a Bosnian set love story, now word from Toldya! is that she may have lined up her next acting gig, an adaption of the ITV British drama Unforgiven, the most exciting part? Christopher McQuarrie is writing it.
The original was a mini series that aired in the UK in 2009, the story revolves around Ruth Slater who serves 15 years in jail for the murder of two cops, upon her release she looks to reconnect with her younger sister but is targeted for revenge by the sons of one of her victims.
This is not the first time Hollywood has looked to British mini series' for adaption, last year we saw the classy thriller "State of Play" and this year was the turn of the less successful "Edge of Darkness."
I've not seen the original "Unforgiven" mini series but it was highly acclaimed and from what I've read it's not surprising the role appeals to Jolie, especially with McQuarrie writing.
