In their continued effort to sever all ties with Tom Cruise, Paramount is apparently planning to move forward with the MISSION IMPOSSIBLE franchise with Angelina
Jolie-impregnator himself Brad Pitt as head honcho IMF superagent managing a special ops team who create masks so advanced, they even manipulate a person's body
type. According to a report on ThisIsLondon.co.uk, Paramount is so desperate to land Pitt, they're willing to shell out more money than any studio's ever given any
actor ever (close to 40 million duckets) and if that doesn't seal the deal, they're willing to offer every Paramount executives' first born child and a dowry of orphans to
help supplement the Pitt-Jolie clan and ensure an African country's name gets at least a cursory mention on every page of the script. Of course, chances are this is a
wildly outlandish rumor (and if it is true, there doesn't seem like a very high chance Pitt would take this role) but if isn't, what do you guys think about it?
In related Tom Cruise news, after only a few ass-kissing sessions, Dan Snyder, the Washington Redskins owner financially backing Cruise' independent production shingle,
has agreed to front 200 million dollars for Cruise' future
films.
Extra Tidbit:
The original "Mission: Impossible" series ran from 1966 to 1973 and then came back for a three-year run from 1988 to 1990.
