Angelina Jolie pregnant?


Los Angeles - Angelina Jolie is reportedly pregnant.

The Changeling star has sparked rumours she is expecting another child with partner Brad Pitt after she asked for daring stunt scenes in her forthcoming movie Salt to be cut back.

"There is still some exciting action stuff - most notably when Angelina's character is chased by snipers over the rooftops," a source said.

"But there's no back-flips on speeding trains and it's all more face close-ups than action sequences.

"Early versions of Salt could not be shot with a woman in the early stages of pregnancy, but the draft they're shooting now can."

Refused a stunt double

Fuelling the baby rumours is the fact Angelina - who already has six children with Brad, including three adopted kids - usually does her own stunts.

In Wanted, Tomb Raider and Mr and Mrs Smith she refused to use a stunt double for the more extreme action sequences.

"It doesn't look as real. I think the best stunts are when an audience watches it and can understand everything that's going on and feel like they're in the middle of the action. I love practicing stunts to get them right," said the 33-year-old actor.

Angelina's role in Salt has already been dramatically altered since the first scripts were written.

Her part as Eveline Salt - a CIA agent who must evade capture after being framed as a Russian spy - was originally set to be played by Tom Cruise, but the role was changed to suit a woman when the Valkyrie star pulled out

The Brad Pitt Defense: Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston



Despite the very public split with Jennifer Aniston for Brad Pitt, over the past few years, Brad and Angelina Jolie have cultivated an image as loving parents. In fact, during a Jan. 10 photo shoot at LA's Smashbox Studios, Brad told Life & Style about his 6-month twins, Vivienne and Knox, according to a report in the magazine. "They're doing just great," he said. "They're getting bigger every day. We're just amazed by how quickly they are growing!"

But Angelina's recent admission that she and Brad fell in love while he was still married to Jennifer Aniston seemed to remind people that Angie may have split up America's onetime golden couple. The implication upset Brad, who's now leaped to Angie's defense, the report notes.

The report follows up with the interview in February's W magazine, Brad, 45, and claims "clearly attempts to backtrack, claiming that he filmed Mr & Mrs. Smith with Angie, 33, for a whole year, which meant the cameras were still rolling after he and Jen called it quits."

Brad, say an insider, felt he had no choice to speak out. "He's exasperated - he was touched by Angelina's interview when she talked about falling in love with him, and he was surprised by the backlash," the insider says. "Brad says he's weary of the whole drama, but he can't stand by and let Angie get bashed.
