Billy Bob Thornton, Angelina Jolie's ex-husband, has expressed his openness to work with Brad Pitt in the future -- after the divorce proceedings, that is. Will there be an impending partnership up between the two exes? Billy Bob named Brad Pitt as the actor he wants to team up with in a movie.
Working With Angelina Jolie's Ex Not A Problem For Billy Bob
Billy Bob wants to partner with Brad and not with Angelina. Thornton clearly has no problem working with someone who's also been married to his ex, because he says he wants to team up with Brad Pitt for a film. A Pitt/Thornton movie? Fans would want to watch that.
Everything seems to be going well even now that they are going through the process of the divorce, as Brad still gets to see their six children. Brad Pitt, 52, and Angelina Jolie, 41, ended their blissfully happy ten-year relationship and two-year marriage after she accused him of cheating with his co-star Marion Cotillard.
Billy Bob Thornton, Angelina Jolie Remained Friends Over The Years
"This might surprise people, but I'd love to do a movie with Brad Pitt," Billy Bob tells Playboy. "I think we'd be great together. We'd play a couple of Southern guys." "Angie and I are still friends," he adds. "That won't ever go away. We don't connect on a regular basis; sometimes I won't see her for five years. She's a great person. And she's one of the people who didn't abandon me. She never has."
They were married in 2000 divorced 3 years after. The two remained friends and, according to Billy Bob, he has stayed close to her over the years.
Hollywood Life says no plans have been confirmed yet for Brad and Billy Bob to actually get into a project together, but they'd clearly have a lot in common to talk about if they ever do. Unluckily, the 61-year-old may have to wait some time before he gets what he wishes because Brad has two huge movies coming out in 2017.
