“Angelina has met many billionaires during her career as an actress, but her friendship with Salma over the past few years is completely different and really elevates Angelina’s power in the business,” the insider told the weekly outlet.

“Her next project is Angelina’s film, Without Blood , which will hit the festival circuit this year, but the reality is that this was a pandemic-conceived project for Angelina that she had been quietly working on for the past three years and which she directed before starring in the Maria Callas biopic, which is releasing this year,” the insider shared.
“Angelina and Salma have a deep, ongoing collaboration that has continued since they shot Eternals together almost six years ago.”
How Salma can help Jolie against Pitt
Salma Hayek, who has a net worth of over $200 million, is married to François-Henri Pinault, a billionaire luxury-brand owner whose net worth is estimated at around $7 billion. “Salma and her husband have a level of expertise and contacts in the Europe-based luxury world that matches and surpasses the resources Brad has used in his battle with Angelina. You can bet Angelina is going to lean on that support as she seeks some sort of resolution to her and Brad’s conflict,” the source said.
The insider also added that it could be Jolie’s wishful thinking to outshine the Bullet Train star.
