Brad Pitt In Video Game Adap ‘Dark Void’?
Brad Pitt (who I’m informed has been cured of that bizarre reverse ageing thing David Fincher documented) is potentially developing a big screen adaptation of the forthcoming shoot ‘em up Dark Void. The video game is about a pilot who crashes in the Bermuda Triangle, only to discover a parallel universe and a plot to take over the world. According to E!Online the pilot and his crew “end up fighting aliens that were previously presumed to be extinct”. Um, presumed to be extinct? So this is a world where aliens have not only existed, but died out…? Weird.
If he were to star the movie would be something of a departure for Pitt, who hasn’t really appeared in out-and-out Science Fiction, though he has circled several projects, including Aronofsky’s The Fountain (which was eventually made without him) and a sci-fi version of Homer’s Odyssey. Pitt of course had a memorable turn in Terry Gilliam’s wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey movie Twelve Monkeys as a batshit insane dude, though it’s unlikely a videogame will feature a central character that interesting. You know it’s true.
With more and more videogames headed to the big screen chances are that one will eventually be good, could it be Dark Void? The fact that it was optioned before the game is even out says they’re confident about the concept at least…And the trailer is pure awesome:
Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt’s Night at the Museum
ET has a candid look at Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as they joined their celebrity peers at the Museum of Contemporary Art's (MOCA) 30th Anniversary Gala in Los Angeles, Calif. on Saturday night.
The couple had some laughs as they followed their tour guide through the museum.
"It's going to be an amazing night to look at the art," actor Neil Patrick Harris said prior to the event. "And Lady Gaga is dancing with ballet people so that will be kind of crazy."
Watch the video for more inside glimpses into Brad and Angie's date night and for more artsy moments from the other stars who attended, including James Franco and Eva Mendes.
Brad Pittt’s inglourious bike crash
When Brad Pitt dumped his badass new bike in Hollywood traffic on Saturday, it went down not with a bang but a whimper. After all, an accident that occurs when a vehicle is barely moving is bound to be inglourious at best.
TMZ reports that Pitt was trying to negotiate between a car stopped at a light (on his left) and a parked car on his right, when his handlebars clipped the parked car. He lost control of the bike and it skidded out from under him (see video).
He wasn't injured, nor did he seem upset. Charming as ever, he stood around and shot the breeze with fans while he waited for his bike to be towed, according to a Radar Online report..
The next day he was seen sporting a new Camaro. (His dedication to skin care products obviously doesn't stop him from being a manly man.)
Here's the accident video:
