Angelina Jolie Told To Gain 28 Pounds for The Thomas Crown Affiar 2

July 24th, 2008 | Category: All Celebrities

Angelina Jolie doesn’t need to be in a rush to lose all the pregnancy weight that instance. The producers of her next movie The Thomas Crown Affair 2 have told her she needs to gain 28 pounds from her normal weight of about 90 pounds. Apparently the weight she lost while she was grieving after her mother’s death last year caused her to pass out a lot while filming her last action movie, Wanted.

A source said: “Ideally they want Angelina to put on 28lbs for the role. It is going to be very physically demanding, which is

why they want her to carry the additional weight. They don’t want a reprise of what happened with ‘Wanted’, where she was fainting and they had to take her costumes in. She was additionally slated for being too skinny to portray an action woman, and for ‘Thomas Crown’ they want a convincing female lead.”

Oh and whether you were wondering, Pierce Bronson will be reprising his role as the dashing billionaire art thief Thomas Crown. Yummy. And P.S. Thomas Crown bosses…why 28 pounds? Why not 25 or 30? That bothers me.
