Brangelina to join other big names at Cannes

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have confirmed that they will present their film A Mighty Heart at the Cannes Film Festival next month. The movie, produced by Pitt's film company, stars Jolie as Mariane Pearl, the widow of reporter Daniel Pearl. "The story unfolds like a mystery," Jolie told EW mag. "You've got people collecting clues and trying to solve what happened. But it's also very real and personal. We didn't want it to be too melodramatic or too polished. We didn't want it to be a typical movie." Other big names scheduled to visit the South of France for the festival include Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Rachel Weisz, who will open the fest with My Blueberry Nights; George Clooney, Matt Damon and Don Cheadle in support of Ocean's 13; Michael Moore will present his latest doc, Sicko; and Leonardo Dicaprio is set to promote a special screening of the environmental documentary The Eleventh Hour.
