But only on $15m a film, less than hubby Brad Pitt ($20m) makes according to the Hollywood Reporter. Top male star Will Smith can command $25m. Still it's good to know that the Pitt, or is Jolie, household can get by in these straightened times. Angelina's $15m puts her ahead of Julia Roberts and Reese Witherspoon with Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman dropping out of the $10m a film list. Actually these sums aren't so great when you consider what basketball and football stars can earn these days, let alone clueless Wall Street bankers. And Jolie is most definitely a star. Mind you even Angelina has her limits. When asked recently what the nicest thing his wife cooked for him was Brad Pitt offered: "cereal." Hope for his sake he was joking otherwise we might have a real life rerun of Mr and Mrs Smith (see story below).
