Hollywood producer attacks Angelina Jolie as 'spoiled brat with rampaging ego'

In embarrassing emails leaked by Sony hackers Scott Rudin, producer of The Social Network and The Queen, claims the star's planned remake of Cleopatra will be an "ego bath"

An Oscar-winning Hollywood producer reportedly attacked Angelina Jolie as a "spoiled brat with a rampaging ego" in leaked emails.

Scott Rudin, who produced films including The Social Network, Notes on a Scandal, Moneyball, and The Queen, made the comments in what appear to be a series of angry exchanges with Amy Pascal, co-chair of Sony Pictures Entertainment.

The studio has been targeted by Guardians of the Peace, a hacking group with suspected links to North Korea, which has obtained and leaked vast amounts of information from Sony's computers.

The studio has not commented on whether the emails, which were dated in February and have been widely reported in the film media, were genuine.

According to the messages Rudin and Pascal began swearing at each other because Jolie wanted director David Fincher to oversee her planned remake of Cleopatra instead of a Steve Jobs biopic written by Aaron Sorkin.

Rudin, pushing the Jobs movie, wrote to Pascal: "There is no movie of Cleopatra to be made (and how that is a bad thing given the insanity and rampaging spoiled ego of this woman and the cost of the movie is beyond me)...I have zero appetite for the indulgence of spoiled brats and I will tell her this myself if you don't."

Jolie has been a known personality around Hollywood for years, why all the criticism all of a sudden?

I am really looking forward to seeing her Zamperini biography.

So basically she’s pretty much your average Hollywood star.

So it will be just like Taylor's version.

I can’t help but laugh at the fact that Arriana Grande needs to be carried like a baby when she’s tired. LOL

I think this is coming out because this information was in the hacked e-mails from the hacking of Sony’s systems.

I heard some private e-mails even had some less than flattering things to say about Obama................

That woman is one bat short of a full belfry. When she was married to Billie Bob Thornton, each carried a vial of each other’s blood around their neck.

As far as I’m concerned every single individual in showbiz today is a worthless,amoral piece of excrement.On reflection I understand that it’s unlikely that they’re *all* like that but to me it’s a case of the 98% giving the 2% a bad name.

Yes, I’m sure the MSM will enjoy cherry picking that info for months to come. Oh well.

I don't GET where this simpering bimbo rates such veneration.

Not one of them could do even MY dinky job with all the detail and accountability and all the demanding people I have to answer to.

Yet there they are... always propped up in front of us AS IF they are some kind of rarefied deities.

Really!?

Doing pretend in front of a camera MUST be easy as hell because whenever I hear one of them speaking OFF SCRIPT, they invariably give themselves away as worse than stupid and shallow.

The producers were probably turned away from her when they made sexual advances.

Perhaps because she fancies herself an auteur now, directing and producing etc. and thus encroaching on the sinecures of established studio types.

When their films bomb, they are sacked. When actresses’ films bomb, everyone but the actress is blamed.

I thought she was more conservative like her dad, Jon Voight.
