Angelina Jolie As Cleopatra?

Is Angelina Jolie who you picture when you imagine Cleopatra?

Angelina Jolie is reportedly considering playing Cleopatra. EmpireOnline has this to say:

Legendary Egyptian queen Cleopatra is one of those subjects that always seem to cause trouble whenever Hollywood dips her into the milky bath of filmmaking. Back in 1963, Joseph L Mankiewicz’ version all but emptied the coffers of 20th Century Fox and became more famous for its troubles than its release. More recently, Steven Soderbergh has been trying to get an epic musical version on its feet, going as far as locking in Hugh Jackman, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Ray Winstone to star with members of popular indie rock combo Guided By Voices linked to the score. But that’s been shoved aside in favour of the 17 other projects he’s juggling at the moment and seems no closer to making his To Do list just yet. So producer Scott Rudin will be hoping he has more luck with his own take on Cleo’s story, which he’s developing “for and with” Angelina Jolie.

While her 2007 portrayal of Marianne Pearl in a Mighty Heart earned good reviews, some eyebrows were raised at the choice of a white actress playing a multiracial character.
