Oil Spill Star?

He’s always had a huge place in his heart for New Orleans, and now that the Big Easy is threatened by the BP Oil Spill, Brad Pitt may be working on a film about the disaster.

The “Fight Club” stud has been rumored to be talking with film execs about a possible project, though the tragedy is still without a stand-out hero.

In addition, Pitt has his eye on the forthcoming sequel to the massively successful “Sherlock Holmes” film.

Despite the fact that director Guy Ritchie seems set on casting Daniel Day Lewis in the role of Professor Moriarty, Brad thinks he’d be a good pick for the part.
