With Angelina Jolie, looks could kill. At least that's what director Ridley Scott is hoping. He's tapped Jolie to play a femme fatale in his new drama about the murder of Maurizio Gucci and general decadence of the Gucci clan. The movie currently has a 2010 start date. Jolie would play Patrizia Reggiano, who was sentenced to 29 years for plotting the 1995 murder of ex-husband Maurizio Gucci, the grandson of founder Guccio Gucci, who won the power struggle to run the family fashion business. Jolie is likely to have a busy year or two—she's also slated to play medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta in an adaption of the Patricia Cornwell novel series, and will star opposite Sam Worthington in the thriller The Tourist.
