Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have announced they are developing a television show chronicling the lives of international aid workers in dangerous zones. The project will be the first joint producing effort between Pitt and Jolie. Scott Burns, who co-wrote The Bourne Ultimatum and produced An Inconvenient Truth, is writing the series.
Charitable Works
Pitt and Jolie have been together since 2005, and are both very active in humanitarian efforts worldwide. The projects they support include AIDS research, relief work for refugees and conservation efforts in Cambodia. After Hurricane Katrina, Pitt started the Make It Right project, an effort to build sustainable, affordable housing for victims of the hurricane in New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward. In 2005, for her work as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie was given the United Nations Global Humanitarian Action Award.
