Hollywood is abuzz with reports that Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston could be reuniting for a romantic comedy, marking their first big-screen project together since their headline-making split in 2005.
Aniston has been keeping details about her upcoming film under wraps, and sources suggest it’s because Pitt is attached to the project.
"Brad has been pitching ideas to Jen for years, but she always resisted," an insider revealed. "Now that his divorce from Angelina Jolie is finalized, and both could use a box office hit, she’s finally considering it."
With the resurgence of rom-coms in Hollywood—especially after the success of ‘Bridget Jones 4’—the timing seems perfect for Pitt and Aniston to make their long-awaited return to the genre.
Powerful names in the industry are eager to be part of the project. David Fincher, a longtime Pitt collaborator, is reportedly interested in directing, while Jimmy Kimmel has allegedly contributed to the script. "It’s going to be pure box office gold," the source added.
Not everyone is excited about this potential reunion. Brad’s current girlfriend, Ines de Ramon, is reportedly uneasy about his close ties to Aniston.
"Brad has always spoken highly of Jen. She was never criticized, unlike Angelina," a source said. "But seeing them act in a romantic comedy together might be unsettling for Ines."
Despite the concerns, insiders say this project is moving forward, and for Pitt, it could be the career revival he needs after his last few films underperformed at the box office.
Fans have been eager to see Pitt and Aniston share the screen since their 2020 virtual table read of ‘Fast Times at Ridgemont High’, where their chemistry was undeniable.
Now, with Hollywood backing the project and audiences ready for a nostalgic reunion, this could be the most talked-about rom-com of the decade.
