Angelina Jolie To Direct For First Time

Angelina Jolie, 35, is a busy woman these days – she’s a mother  of nine, a UN goodwill ambassador to Bosnia and star of the summer blockbuster Salt. Now Jolie is adding a new title to her resume – director. Jolie plans to start shooting her directorial debut in Bosnia this fall, casting people of all ethnicities from the former Yugoslavia. The film will center around two people who meet before the 1992-1995 Bosnian war and will follow their relationship as it is affected by the surrounding conditions.  Jolie has recently visited Bosnia to talk with officials about the problems that face the displaced men and women in the country. This was her second visit this year.  “It is a love story, not a political statement,” the actress said of the film. –SAM VANDEVER
