Oscar-winning filmmaker Martin Scorsese had planned to make a film about Egypt’s Queen Cleopatra VII. Angelina Jolie had been finalized to play the title role in the film, which was named Cleopatra.
However, the project never came to fruition.
In a recent video interview, Scorsese revealed that Sony Pictures’ emails were hacked in 2014 amid a controversy involving North Korea over the film The Interview, starring actor Seth Rogen.
As a result, plans to make Cleopatra fell through. The hacked emails also revealed negative comments about Jolie.
