Carla Bruni, who married Nicolas Sarkozy shortly after he became French President in 2007, has reportedly accepted director Woody Allen’s offer to appear in a currently untitled movie he’s planning to make next year. Woody stated last year he would offer Carla “any role she liked” in one of his films. He said:
I would like to work with Carla Bruni. I’m sure she would be wonderful. She has charisma and she performs, so she’s not unknown to an audience, and I would cast her in many different ways.
She is an accomplished artist, she is very beautiful and I am sure she would have a gift for comedy.
I can assure people it would cause no problems with President Sarkozy, or with the image of France.
Carla, 41, has only ever held a few small film roles in the past, most notably in Robert Altman’s 1994 satire Pret-a-Porter.
Woody’s latest, also untitled, project is currently filming in London and stars Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto,Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas and Naomi Watts.
