Assistant FBI Director Mike Kortan is flaming mad over Clint Eastwood and Leonardo DiCaprio's portrayal of former FBI director J. Edgar Hoover as gay in their new movie, J. Edgar, reports USA Today.
Kortan says Eastwood and DiCaprio came to him for information on Hoover, and they were told, "Vague rumors and fabrications have cropped up from time to time, but there is no evidence in the historical record."
Former agents have campaigned against the depiction of the rumored relationship between Hoover and his top aide, Clyde Tolson (Armie Hammer in the film.)
William Branon, chairman of The J. Edgar Hoover Foundation, said:
"There is no basis in fact for such a portrayal of Mr. Hoover. It would be a grave injustice and monumental distortion to proceed with such a depiction ..."
It's currently unclear how far the film takes the idea of a homosexual relationship between Hoover and Tolson, though the trailer (above) shows them holding hands.
Beyonce may be heading to the big screen with Clint Eastwood for an updated version of the 1937 classic A Star Is Born.
Warner Bros. has confirmed that the two stars are currently in negotiations to be a part of the remake with Beyonce starring in the film and Eastwood directing.
A Star Is Born was remade back in 1954 starring Judy Garland and James Mason ... then again in 1976 featuring Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
A male lead has not yet been cast, however Warner Bros. is reportedly eyeing Will Smith for the role. If Mr. Smith is indeed in the running, he better start warming up those vocal cords!
We thought everyone in the universe had heard the good news about Angelina Jolie being pregnant with twins - until we spoke to Clint Eastwood last night, that is!
The legendary actor/director was chatting amicably with the paps on his way back to his car last night when our cameraman asked him for a comment about Angie's imminent due date. Much to everyone's surprised, Clint claimed ignorance, declaring that he's "not an OB man" and that he'd be waiting to read about it "in the papers".
Perhaps Clint might want to start checking X17Online instead - we'll have the news way before the papers do!
Here's Angelina Jolie, who looks ready to burst, at the Cannes red carpet premiere of Changeling with director Clint Eastwood - the two (along with Brad Pitt and Mick Jagger) dined out together at Tetou last night.
Angie's positively glowing! Maybe due to all that k-i-s-s-i-n-g with Brad?
Check out these de-lish pictures of a preggers Angelina Jolie and babydaddy Brad Pitt having dinner at Tetou with director Clint Eastwood - not to mention Mick Jagger! - last night. And it looks like we caught them in an intimate moment... Angie even leaned in for a little kiss!
With two movies showing and her pregnancy, of course, Ms. Jolie really is the Queen of Cannes!
How would you have liked to have been at that dinner table?
Preggers Brangelina sat down to dinner with Angie's Changeling director Clint Eastwood as well as rock legend Mick Jagger (with girlfriend L'Wren Scott.)
They caused quite a stir outside the Tetou Restaurant, in Cannes, where Brad paused to give an autograph to one of his littlest fans!
Baby bump on full display in a tight black t-shirt, Angelina changed up her look for a photo call yesterday in France.
The mom-to-be has pretty much stuck to dresses during both of her pregnancies but yesterday she tried out a form-fitting black number and, as usual, without doubt, of course, as always -- she looked great!
Clint may be an old pro, but one thing he can't get used to is having his picture taken!
Extremely apologetic to one fan who said he came all the way from Seattle, Clint wouldn't break his stride to his car after dining at Madeo, even keeping his cool when one photog found himself on the ground trying to keep up with Dirty Harry!
Clint may be 77, but he apparently can still dodge the paps with the best of them!
