Brad Pitt announcement
Brad Pitt doesn't want to play a Washington reporter after all. Universal Pictures announced that the blond half of Brangelina has dropped out of the Beltway-based political drama "State of Play." Pitt abruptly quit early yesterday after two weeks of battling director Kevin Macdonald ("Last King of Scotland") over the script, sources say. Filming was scheduled to start last week, and an elaborate newsroom set was completed when Pitt pulled a very expensive plug. brad pitt announcement
