There's no such thing as a sure thing – apparently in Hollywood, too. Only days before Brad Pitt's new movie, the $50-million-plus baseball drama Moneyball, was due to get rolling, Columbia Pictures pulled the plug on the production, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The trade paper says that studio head Amy Pascal switched on the red light Friday after several changes had been made to the script since it was first approved.

They're between film shoots, but Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have kept busy.
First, it was the creation of the Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Center, named after Brad's mother, in his hometown of Springfield, Mo. And Wednesday, in support of Jolie's eight-year relationship with the UN Refugee Agency, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation gave $1 million to help displaced people in Pakistan, a country she has visited three times.
The head of the agency, António Guterres, thanked the foundation for its assistance, calling Pakistan's plight "the most challenging humanitarian crisis of the past decade," as more than 2 million people are currently displaced in the country.

Brad Pitt Buys $1 Million Painting
Originally posted 06/11/2009 11:35AM
It wasn't his first choice, but Brad Pitt still decided to spend a reported $960,000 on a painting by German artist Neo Rauch during a visit to Art Basel, the annual contemporary art fair in Switzerland.
According to a representative of the artist's Berlin gallery, Pitt had his eye on another painting by Rauch, but that one was already reserved for museum. Rauch, 46, has works that hang, among other places, in New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Pitt's purchase, a rainbow-colored racetrack painting titled Etappe (which refers to a leg of a race), was described by New York's David Zwirner Gallery as an "enigmatic and dreamlike" representation of a racecar being tuned up in the middle of a competition, according to the Wall Street Journal.

After months of breathless tabloid reports about Brad Pitt's get-together with ex Jennifer Aniston, how he and Angelina Jolie have separate bedrooms – and how the pair fought constantly during the Cannes Film Festival – what is going on with Hollywood's golden couple?
PEOPLE not only reveals the answers in its latest cover story, on sale Friday, but also finds out what fanned the gossip in the first place.
While the pair have rarely been snapped out together in recent months, there have been sightings. On June 5, PEOPLE reports, Pitt showed up on the Long Island set of Angelina's thriller Salt for a belated celebration of Angelina's 34th birthday one day before. Brad "took one of the little birthday cakes and smushed it into her face," says an eyewitness. "It was really funny."
