Angelina Jolie might have found her next big role while promoting her directorial debut “In the Land of Blood and Honey” at the Golden Globes this weekend. While there, Jolie prodded Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar to work on a film with her.

ANGELINA JOLIE HAD ‘COMPLETE EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWN’
Both Almodóvar and Jolie were nominated in the category of Best Foreign Language Film — Jolie for her Bosnian war love story and Almodóvar for his grisly plastic surgery film, “The Skin I Live In.” While both directors were at a Globes foreign-language film seminar on Saturday, Jolie joked to a Spanish reporter that she was nonplussed with Almodóvar for never having cast her in a film.
“I am right here,” Jolie said, speaking to Almodóvar. “Yes, because you have never given me a job.”
“Oh my God,” Almodóvar responded, according to the Huffington Post. “No, no don’t worry, you are joining now. Absolutely.”
“So one day, when all these cameras are gone, we find a film together?” Jolie asked.
The Spanish director nodded in conclusion.
Perhaps their collaboration will be nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 2013 Golden Globe Awards, as both Jolie and Almodóvar’s films lost this year to the Iranian film, “A Separation.”
