Actress Angelina Jolie will retire from acting after her final starring role as Queen Cleopatra.
Angelina Jolie has planned her retirement and "Cleopatra" is at the end of the line. In a new interview, the "Maleficent" star confirmed the long-rumored project about the Egyptian beauty that she has been attached to for years.
"For Cleopatra, we've been working on it," Jolie told BBC radio. "There's been lots of different ideas of directors and a lot of different discussions. The script has been written by Eric Roth, who is a dear friend and a brilliant writer."
Talking about the role, the 38-year-old said, "She's complicated, it's complicated to get this one right. She's complicated. But I think we're getting there. It's very close. So if we can pull it off...I imagine that the preparation for it is going to be big."
Hinting at retirement, Jolie said, "It's one of those [roles] you feel like maybe that's the one you put everything into and that's where you end it. That's where you finish, in a great way. You kind of go, 'What could you do beyond that one?' Put it all into that one."
Jolie previously revealed her intention to put her acting career to rest to focus on her humanitarian work and directing. She currently serves as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees campaigning against sexual violence in conflict.Jacked from Ace Showbiz

And yet, they still will not cast a black woman for a role that is and insprired by a black woman. I'll pass. I'm so sick of hollywood stealing our legacy and perverting it into their own. FOHWTBS
i'd be more upset if it was nefertiti she was playing. but, cleopatra was supposedly greek, iirc. idk much about egyptian history, sad to say.

Cleopatra was not black.
This movie will tank, all these women were black why do hollyweird insist on portraying all these Nubian women as pale ugly ass cacaszoids.

LMBAO I see another one who is indoctrinated into his-stories. you people are hysterical in your delusions. this pos will tank just like when Elizabeth played the same, yt women will never be able to pull off these roles, they are cartoon characters playing real life historical figures. jews in hollyweird has done a good job misrepresenting historical accounts considering they are also frauds in their stolen lineages as the so called "chosen of god" the hilarity of these continued delusions lol
She's been retiring for years.

Well if there were ever a white women that should play Cleopatra, then it should be her. By the way, Modern day Egyptian don't identify as black nor do they associate with anyone black. If you have ever seen a travel brochure to Africa, it usually says come visit Egyptian and Africa as if they are two separate continents. In the words of Kanye, Egypt don't like black people.
Hisorically Egypt was not inhabited by black people as a majority. I don't understand why negroes (who are mainly WEST African descent) still want to claim something that A. they don't know anything about and B. hardly isn't theirs.
Cleopatra was black, you're the fools who don't know history. Modern day Egyptians have whitewashed history but if you ever visit Egypt, Ghana, Ethiopia they cannot deny the ancient depictions of Cleopatra that clearly show her dark skin. Just like if you visit Greece or Italy, they are ancient depictions of Jesus(real name Yasua, they were no J's in his language) with dark skin and a fro. You're the fools
1:37 have you visited the Pyramids, cannot deny what is seen with the naked eye all hieroglyphics show dark black and brown people that do not resemble modern day Egyptians. Maoism had his armies knock off the noses th house their black features. Tippy clearly have no idea what you're talking about modern Egyptians are a mix of Greek and Kemetians. Why do tippy thing Europeans only speak of Egypt? Greeks and Romans attended university in Ethiopia, then went back and claimed they started math and other knowledge that they learned in Kemet. Try visiting Africa and you'll learn European history is just made up but you probably pay to a Jesus anyway with your slave mentality history. Trying to preach, take your ass to Africa and have them laugh x at your lack of knowledge, even in Europe they know the truth

Yet another icon of color being portrayed by this strung-out heroin addict. When you're too old and overly exposed to the point where people stop going to your films, that's not retirement. That's the sound of roles drying up and only getting offers to play someone's mom. Gollum, you are no longer pretty, and you playing Cleopatra will be one of the biggest box office bombs of all time.
