Angelina Jolie Says Her Cleopatra Won't Be A Beauty Or Sex Symbol. Huh?

Angelina Jolie to play Cleopatra

"[Cleopatra] has been very misunderstood. I thought it was all about the glamour, but then I read about her and she was a very strong mother, she spoke five languages and she was a leader. My performance will never be as lovely as Elizabeth's. We are trying to get into a different truth about her as a pharaoh in history and not as a sex symbol, because she really wasn't. Even this idea of her having many lovers—it was possible that it was only two. She is very interesting, but she wasn't a great beauty."

Angelina Jolie talks about Cleopatra, the role Elizabeth Taylor made famous and that Angelina will be taking a stab at in an upcoming movie to be directed by "The Social Network"'s David Fincher. In the flick, Angelina claims the famous Pharaoh's romances will be toned down and that her diplomacy and intellect will be played up. But I dunno—by casting Angie, isn't it guaranteed the role will be sexy? [Huffington Post]
