Angelina Jolie plans to ‘drag’ ugly divorce from Brad Pitt out for 4 more years, until youngest kids turn 18: report


Former It couple Brangelina‘s ugly, yearslong divorce battle is far from over — and is on track to be one of the longest in Hollywood history.
Brad Pitt, 59, and Angelina Jolie, 48, announced their separation in 2016 after an allegedly violent argument on a plane that left Jolie and at least two of their six kids covered in alcohol.

And the “Maleficent” star doesn’t seem to be in a rush to settle, a new report claims.
“She is going to drag this divorce out until the twins (now 14) turn 18,” a friend of Pitt’s told NewsNation Now’s Paula Froelich. “Four more years.”

The warring couple share kids Maddox, 21; Pax, 19; Zahara, 18; Shiloh, 17; and twins Knox and Vivienne, 15.
Pitt has reportedly shelled out an estimated $14 million toward their split — including an $8 million “loan” for Jolie to nab a $24.5 million, six-bedroom, 10-bathroom home in Los Feliz, California, a friend of the “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” star told Froelich.

Pitt is also duking it out with Jolie and a billionaire Russian oligarch over Château Miraval, their former home and vineyard in France.
Jolie sold her half of the wine business to Yuri Shefler’s company Tenute del Mondo, which Pitt claimed was illegal as he did not approve of the sale.

According to court papers, viewed by Froelich, the once-power-couple said they would “never sell their respective interested in Miraval without the other’s consent.”
“At the same time Angelina was talking to [Shefler] about Miraval she was also negotiating in bad faith with Brad to sell him her share in the winery,” a friend told her.
“It’s in the original purchase agreement that if either want to sell they have to give each other the first right of refusal. She got angry because a judge awarded Brad 50/50 custody and — four months later — Brad finds out from the press she had sold her part of the business to the Russian!”
The couple bought the winery in 2008 for $27 million, but it is now worth more than $160 million, according to Wine Spectator.
Last year, Pitt demanded a trial over Jolie’s sale.
“The vineyard became Pitt’s passion — and a profitable one, as Miraval, under Pitt’s stewardship, has grown into a multimillion-dollar global business and one of the world’s most highly regarded producers of rosé wine,” the 2022 filing said.
“Jolie, meanwhile, contributed nothing to Miraval’s success. Instead, she allowed Pitt to pour money and sweat equity into the business in reliance on the consent right she owed him and a right of first refusal her business entity owed his.”
In the court filing, the “Bullet Train” star accuses Jolie of “purposely keeping Pitt in the dark, and knowingly violating Pitt’s contractual rights,” with the intent of hurting his growing business.
He claimed his ex-wife predicted Shefler would try to take control of the business.
“Pitt is an actor, not a winemaker. He deals in illusions, not dirt and grapes,” Shefler retalied in a court filing.
The couple bought the estate together before their marriage, with Pitt owning 60 percent and Jolie owning 40 percent.
The Hollywood couple brought in winemaker Marc Perrin, and it became one of the world’s most highly regarded producers of rosé.
The château, where the couple tied the knot in 2014, became Pitt’s “passion,” and he gifted Jolie an extra 10 percent as part of their wedding, making it a 50-50 asset when they split in 2016.
Pitt and Jolie aren’t the only ones whose divorce feuds linger — but Brangelina could take the top prize if Pitt’s friend is right.
Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger finalized their divorce in 2021 after separating 10 years earlier, according to Us Weekly.
“Real Housewives of New York City” alum Bethenny Frankel inked her split from Jason Hoppy in 2021, eight years after they went their separate ways, the outlet reported.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
