Angelina Jolie And Brad Pitt Engaged

‘It is a promise for the future and their kids are very happy,’ Pitt’s manager tells People. By Jocelyn Vena Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Photo: Kevin Mazur/ WireImage Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are engaged, Pitt’s manager confirmed Friday (April 13). “Yes, it’s confirmed,” Cynthia Pett-Dante told People. “It is a promise for the future and their kids are very happy. There’s no date set at this time.” Click here to see photos of Brangelina It’s being reported that Robert Procop worked with Pitt to design a ring for his longtime love. A statement from the jewelry designer to The Hollywood Reporter, which originally reported the engagement, read: “I can confirm that, yes, Robert Procop did indeed design an engagement ring for Angelina Jolie, designed in collaboration with Brad Pitt.” People also obtained a statement from the designer: “Brad had a specific vision for this ring, which he realized over a yearlong collaboration with Robert. He wanted every aspect of it to be perfect, so Robert was able to locate a diamond of the finest quality and cut it to an exact custom size and shape to suit Angelina’s hand.” Procop, who works with Jolie on her “The Style of Jolie” jewelry line, added, “Brad was always heavily involved, overseeing every aspect of the creative design evolution. The side diamonds are specially cut to encircle her finger. Each diamond is of the highest gem quality.” Rumors of an engagement originated when Jolie — along with Pitt and their son Pax — was spotted with a whopping piece of bling on her finger. The family was photographed at a private viewing at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art’s Chinese Galleries on Wednesday. The pair got together in 2005 after meeting on the set of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” when Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston. They have six kids together, who frequently travel with the couple across the globe. The twosome have been pretty vocal over the years about not getting married until everyone has the right to marry, but in an interview earlier this year with THR, Pitt seemed to be warming up to the idea, mostly because of their kids. “We’d actually like to,” he said of his seven-year partner, Jolie, “and it seems to mean more and more to our kids. We made this declaration some time ago that we weren’t going to do it till everyone can. But I don’t think we’ll be able to hold out. It means so much to my kids, and they ask a lot. And it means something to me, too, to make that kind of commitment.” He added, “I’m not going to go any further. But to be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.” Related Photos Lovebirds: Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie

‘Eastbound & Down’: The Best F—ing Show On HBO

As Kenny Powers (presumably) rides off into the sunset this Sunday night, we pay homage to HBO’s best-kept secret. By James Montgomery Danny McBride in “Eastbound and Down” Photo: HBO “Stevie, you weak mother—-er, you listen to me right now. You have made an ass-ton of stupid choices in Myrtle Beach; this is the moment of truth. Now is not the time to lay on the ground like a bald f—ing baby. Now is the time to be a f—ing man.” That was Kenny Powers on last Sunday’s penultimate episode of “

CG Monsters, Villains Star in Slightly More Coherent Wrath of the Titans Trailer

Forget John Carter ‘s controversial budget woes and terrible tracking for a minute; Wrath of the Titans has been threatening to be the first big biff of 2012 since it was announced, thanks largely to its poorly received predecessor, Clash of the Titans . The sequel’s initial Marilyn Manson-themed trailer didn’t help, either, but Warner Bros. have thankfully tightened things (and stopped lingering on Sam Worthington’s Kenny Powers ‘do) for a new trailer that actually promises some fantastic CG creature work. Bring on the lava monster thingy! Wrath of the Titans picks up ten years after the events of Clash , with Perseus (Worthington) tapped once again by Zeus to save the world, this time from the nefarious Titans and Olympian plotters we glimpsed in Immortals . (Thanks for that primer, Tarsem!) This time around Rosamund Pike is along for the ride as the warrior queen Andromeda, as well as folks like Toby Kebbell and Bill Nighy. This trailer tightens things up a bit, explaining the set up (Liam Neeson’s Zeus is under attack!) and packing a ton of CG creature looks into the span of a minute and a half. Honestly, that’s shaping up to be the draw of this Jonathan Liebesman-helmed sequel. All I want to see is some believable lava smoke monster giant action. The movies never get those guys quite right. Wrath of the Titans will debut March 30. [via ComingSoon ]

Kenny Powers Gets a Gun in the Trailer for Eastbound & Down

“A man who has seen the things I’ve seen; experienced the loss and pain that I’ve experienced… I transcend race, hombre.” So says Kenny Powers at the beginning of the first real trailer for the second season of HBO’ s Eastbound & Down . That the disgraced former Major Leaguer — who escaped to Mexico during the season one finale — has a wicked set of cornrows should come as no surprise to anyone who has seen a subway ad or billboard promoting the Sept. 26 premiere. That Powers has a collection of firearms, however, might.

Marilyn Manson ‘Obsessed’ With ‘Eastbound And Down,’ Director Says

Photograph in Interview magazine shows Manson dressed as character Kenny Powers. By Jocelyn Vena Marilyn Manson as Kenny Powers for Interview magazine Photo: Interview Magazine Marilyn Manson has made a career out of creating creepy music, so it might come as a surprise to many that he has a funny side and is in fact a huge fan of the HBO series “Eastbound and Down,” starring Danny McBride as Kenny Powers. Interview magazine spoke to the director of the hilarious series and learned about Manson’s obsession with the show. “Yeah, Marilyn Manson, he’s f—ing obsessed with the show,” David Gordon Green explained. “He goes so far as to dress up like Kenny.” “I think David’s actually frightened for Danny,” said director Adam Bhala Lough, who is working with Manson on the flick “Splatter Sisters,” due out next year. “Because Manson wants to kidnap Danny on some King of Comedy sh–. Danny should be scared. “Whenever I see Manson, he’s repeating entire chunks of dialogue and dressed like Kenny,” Lough continued. “He just walks around dressed like this and f—s with people on the street. If a waiter or valet tells him, ‘Have a nice day,’ he’ll respond, ‘Don’t tell me what to do.’ Stuff like that. He’s even dressed like this when I’m at his house watching B
