Who will play Anthony to Jolies Cleopatra?

Everyone knows that Angelina Jolie has been controversially cast to play Cleopatra, the ancient queen that the world’s best ever casino slot was based on. Many argued that Jolie was a bad choice for the queen as she no doubt would have been of different ethnicity to the top Hollywood actress, thus creating an incorrect image of history. Whether people like it or not it looks like she will definitely be acting as Cleopatra in this new movie, but who will play her leading man, Marc Antony?

Well, many might argue that Brad Pitt is ideal for the role as there is already a romantic link here, as he is Jolie’s husband, many in the media claim that there are cracks appearing in their marriage with Pitt moving to England, leaving Jolie in France with their six children. Johnny Depp certainly has the Hollywood currency to play Antony, however we think he is of too slight build to play a Roman would-be-emperor with military aspirations and that the casting studios would probably look for a heavier actor for the role. This leads us on to look at the square jawed George Clooney who certainly has the looks to play the Roman, but is he too long in the tooth to represent the young Antony?

One thing is for sure and that’s we’re not going to find out soon. Many people are speculating on who’s going to play Antony, but we’re beginning to think that all the hype over this film might be completely unjustified, because some critics think that the best version of this story has already been made with Elizabeth Taylor, one of Hollywood’s greatest ever queens.

Let’s hope life is not as complicated, when we are deciding which one of our favourite cleopatra slots to play.
