Angelina Jolie is reportedly being lined up to play Nigella Lawson in a new biopic about the TV chef’s life.
The actress is the top choice for the role of Lawson in the movie, which would chart her turbulent life.
A source told The Sun: ‘Angie had planned to take a lot of time off next year but this role is very tempting.
‘She has been gripped like everyone else by all the drama surrounding Nigella these past few months and thinks she is a remarkable woman.
‘The story has got it all – and she’s as intrigued as anyone else by it.’
Nigella recently divorced from husband Charles Saatchi and admitted taking cocaine during a fraud trial against two former assistants.
The film would center on the court case against Elisabetta and Francesca Grillo along with the drug allegations.
Nigella’s second husband John Diamond died of throat cancer in 2001.
