Angelina Jolie Wants a Role In The Fifty Shades Movies

Hollywood femme-fatal Angelina Jolie is hardly who we think of when the discussion comes up about the casting for the role of Anastasia Steele in the Fifty Shades of Grey movies. Anastasia Steele is a shy, 21-year-old college student who also happens to be a virgin. Not exactly a part made for the 39-year-old sex goddess. Angelina Jolie's name has been floating around the Fifty Shades of Grey rumour mill, from allegations that she'll be directing the movie herself to playing a part in it. One thing we can be sure of is that Angelina definitely wants to be involved in the project. She's been quoted to say that she'd "love a part" in the movie adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey, and has been spotted reading the book on the set of her latest film Maleficent. Angelina Jolie has a lot of experience with success and already knows the movie is "bound to be a huge hit."

Casting a mature and worldly actress like Ms. Jolie in the part of Ana would certainly be controversial casting, but it's probably unlikely that Angelina would be cast as virginal Ms. Steele. One character that might suit Angelina would be the role of "Mrs. Robinson," the sexy and older lady who corrupted and seduced a very young Christian Grey. At the moment, the role of Anastasia Steele is still uncertain. Universal Pictures and Focus Features have acquired to rights to the books, and Mike De Luca and Dana Brunetti from The Social Network are on board to produce the movie, but so far considerations being made about who'll write the screenplay and direct the movie rather than on casting. However, plenty of actresses want in on the Fifty Shades franchise. Many fans too have their own idea of Anastasia Steele and the Internet is rife with discussion as to who'll play Christian Grey's other half. Actresses who are candidates for the role include Kristen Stewart of the Twilight series, Lily Collins, Alexis Bledel, Nina Dobrev, Amanda Seyfried and Emilia Clarke from A Game of Thrones. Scarlett Johansson is another actress whose name has come up in association with the movie, and while her big name can't hurt the box office sales, she might be a little too worldly in the part of the clumsy, innocent girl who is drawn into Christian Grey's red room of pain. It's also more likely an unknown or less-well known actress will get the part. Right now it's a matter of wait and see!

The Coolest Animated Movies Of All Time

1. Fantasia - This Disney classic was ambitious and because of the outbreak of World War Two during its production it lost the large European market essential to its breaking even. It was in its rerelease in 1969 to a new generation of music lovers that it first made a financial profit.

2. Pinocchio - Disney pulled the stops out for this one having geared up by producing Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs. It is the film considered by most old time Disney animators as Disney's masterpiece.

3. Bambi - This soft, lyrical film used impressionistic back ground paintings and realistic animal characters. Realistic looking, they were still anamorphic and it's still a little disturbing to hear the owl called "friend owl" by his potential food source.

4. Allegro Non Troppo - This movie was made in 1976 by the Italian animator Bruno Bozzetto and is a spoof of Fantasia. The animation sequences are sometimes a little more modern not only in theme but also in the use of using photo collage and some live action footage and the sequences of the animator animating the film "live" as a cheesy little orchestra of enslaved women play the soundtrack is a whole lot more fun than Deems Taylor.

5. Akira - Katsuhiro Otomo's sci fi fantasy is the opposite of the kind of bed time story fairy tale American audiences were used to. It's the sort of story to keep you awake at night, even if you're an adul

6. The Iron Giant - This film seems to use the character design style of MAD Magazine and has a 1950s science fiction vibe. Futuristic Retro is a term that could be applied to this Brad Bird directed under-rated cult film.

7. Rocktasia - This obscure cult favorite was, like Allegro Non Troppo, a take off on Disney's Fantasia but instead of animation done to Classical music its soundtrack featured hits from the Classic Rock era of the 60s and early 70s. The art style was based on the poster artists whose work was popular at the time and ranged from Peter Max, Frank Frazetta and Rick Griffen to Maxfield Parrish, M.C. Escher and Hieronymus Bosch.

8. Howl's Moving Castle - A fantasy along the lines of The Wizard of Oz and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, this is one trippy film. A little less head scratching than some other excellent Japanese imports, it is still from another land if not world.

9. The Lion King - This Disney masterpiece has the formula that makes for a successful animated movie; realistic animal designs acting like animals in a natural world devoid of humans. And great songs, this time from Elton John.

10. An American Tale - This movie helped launch Don Bluth as the first real competitor to Disney since the age of the Fleischer Brothers. A poignant story of prejudice and oppression it is a little disturbing if the viewer is aware of the Nazi propaganda which depicted Jews as vermin to be exterminated.
