Brad Pitt's Ladies Battle it Out To Be Next 007 Babe

Jennifer Aniston's dream to become a Bond girl may be put on hold if arch nemesis Angelina Jolie has her way.

According to new casting rumors, butt-kicking Tomb Raider star Angelina is in talks with producers to reunite with Daniel Craig as his leading lady in the next installment of the spy franchise.

Foiled again, Jen!

Aniston recently begged for a shot at playing Craig's Bond babe in the next 007 film in Elle magazine and is rumored to have done a screen test for the part.

Angelina was reportedly favored for the part of Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale but dropped out of negotiations due to scheduling and her then pregnancy with twin messiahs Knox and Vivienne.

A source tells The Insider that Jolie is reconsidering taking a role in the franchise, as long as it's not a one-time gig. With Angelina lookalike Megan Fox the odds-on favorite to don the short shorts in the revamped Raider series and getting killed off in Wanted, Angelina wants to play a recurring character in the film series, as it will provide a stable income for her ever growing family.

But both Jen and Angelina may face competition from a Hollywood upstart. Slumdog Millionaire "It" girl Freida Pinto is also said to be in the running for the gun-touting spot.

We say, let Jennifer, Freida and Angelina take it to the mattress for the part. Freida's got scrappy moves but would be out in round one, leaving Jennifer and femme fatale Angelina to have at it.

Our money's on Angelina, but Jen's pent-up rage over the breakup that she will NOT stop talking about, a series of "He's Just Not That Into You" romances, and her barren womb might fuel her to victory. The Oscar Committee could bid for the rights to sponsor the "Red Carpet Rematch" on pay per view.
