ANGELINA JOLIE PUTS SEX APPEAL INTO 'BEOWULF

Angelina Jolie, seems to get more face time on the covers of magazine than any other beautiful actress of our times. Unfortunately, this is mainly because of her relationship with Brad Pitt, and that is only because the two were having an affair while Pitt was married to Jennifer Aniston. All of that tabloid crap aside, Jolie is one of Hollywood’s most talented actresses and has the awards and statue gold to prove it.

In her latest role, however, the actress didn’t have to work to hard to achieve an amazing performance. In BEOWULF, Jolie plays a water demon that is the mother to the monster Grendel, and functions as one part horror and one part sultry temptress. Jolie looked forward to playing the duality of the character and practically jumped at the chance to work with director Robert Zemeckis.

“I was excited I got a call that I was going to be working with Bob Zemeckis,” Jolie explains. “I was pretty much saying yes to anything. Then I was told I was going to be a lizard. Then I was brought into a room with Bob, with a bunch of pictures and examples. He showed me this picture of a woman half painted gold, and then a lizard. I have kids and I thought 'That's great, it's so bizarre, and I'm going to be this crazy reptilian person or creature.' I was very excited. I met with Crispin [Glover] and we had a great time, and just amazing scenes. Then I saw the poster and saw a few other things. [Laughs] I realized 'Oh, I'm not just a lizard.' But I'm very excited about it. It was just great. She's one of those fun characters. She's evil, she's temptation, and she's very fun to play. Again, we had a great time and I got to work with great actors.”
