‘Tourist’ Star Angelina Jolie Talks Catwoman, Working With Brad Pitt

During our rapid-fire questions, MTV News also asks about Lady Gaga, ‘American Idol’ and retirement. By Eric Ditzian, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Angelina Jolie Photo: MTV News It’s time to play “Address That Rumor” with Angelina Jolie! Interviews with the Oscar winner don’t come along every day, and when you actually have the opportunity to chat with her, you’ve got to maximize your time. Thus, when MTV News sat down with Jolie in Paris while she was promoting “The Tourist,” we took the opportunity to throw out some rapid-fire questions about upcoming projects, persistent rumors and pop-culture preferences. OK, Angie, let’s get down to business! Rumor has it that your husband, Brad Pitt, is going to have a cameo in your directorial debut, a drama set during the Bosnian war. True or false? Jolie: “Possibly.” Cryptic! Moving on: There’s another Jolie/Pitt rumor floating around the Web, this one that you guys will reunite onscreen for “The Tiger,” possibly directed by “Black Swan” helmer Darren Aronofsky. Yes or no? Jolie: “I don’t really know much about that, but I love Darren Aronofsky.” Fair enough. Christopher Nolan is hard at work on his third “Batman” film, “The Dark Knight Rises,” and the Internet has decided you’d be perfect to play Catwoman. Whatcha think? Jolie: “I haven’t heard anything about it, but I thought they did it.” Well, yes — once with Michelle Pfeiffer in Tim Burton’s “Batman Returns” and again with Halle Berry in 2004’s “Catwoman” — but never in Nolan’s version of the franchise. Jolie: “I see. Thank you. Flattering.” Enough with rumors, Miss Jolie. Let’s talk about leisure-time activities: Do you prefer “American Idol” or “The X Factor”? Jolie: “I’m not really familiar with both. I would assume ‘X Factor’? But I’m not sure what I’m saying!” Oh, awkward. We promise we’re almost done! Lady Gaga or Kanye West? Jolie: “Ask my kids!” Lame! And finally, when it comes down to it, will you ever retire or will you act to the bitter end? Jolie: “Retirement. Certainly not act to the bitter end. I’d like to think I’d do other things.” Check out everything we’ve got on “The Tourist.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Dr. Sandeep Kapoor: I Didn’t Kill Anna Nicole!

One of the shady doctors charged in the Anna Nicole Smith drug case claims prosecutors have no evidence he conspired to pump her full of drugs. As a result of this “misunderstanding,” Dr. Sandeep Kapoor wants the judge to throw out some charges he faces in the late model’s 2007 death. Kapoor’s lawyer, Ellyn Garofalo, filed legal papers asking the judge to reject the prosecution’s claim that Kapoor teamed up with Howard K. Stern. The accusation: Kapoor, Stern and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich made a conscious effort to fuel Anna Nicole Smith with drugs that ultimately killed her. As usual, it’s a very fine line and difficult to prove. IN SANDEEP $H!T : Dr. Kapoor allegedly broke many laws . Dr. Sandeep Kapoor claims he prescribed drugs for Anna before he met Eroshevich, even refusing to fill a prescription list Eroshevich faxed him. Kapoor also challenges authorities’ allegations of his obtaining Anna’s ‘scripts by “fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation,” according to the filing. In the court papers, Kapoor acknowledges filling a prescription for Anna under a pseudonym, but he claims he only did so to protect her privacy. Not, as prosecutors say, to “divert drugs for illegal sale or use.” Of course, the long list of felonies he’s charged with is unlikely to be fully tossed. Three years have passed since Smith’s death, and more may follow before this case – making the Dr. Conrad Murray case seem simple – is resolved.
