The 36-year-old, who made her directorial debut with the film In the Land of Blood and Honey, said she is in no rush to helm another movie even though she has been working on the script set in the Asian country, reported Aceshowbiz. “I have actually half-wrote another script about Afghanistan though nobody has read it. I don’t even think it’s good. Maybe I’ll dig it out, but I don’t have the confidence yet to start even thinking in that way,” Jolie said.
After directing Blood and Honey, the actress is set to star in several upcoming films, including Ridley Scott-produced Gertrude Bell, David Fincher’s Cleopatra, and Luc Besson’s yet untitled big scale thriller. — PTI

Sunday on Kourtney & Kim Take New York, Kim's Spin Crowd BFF Jonathan Cheban is (supposedly) planning to sell her out with write a tell-all book about her life.
Meanwhile, Kris Humphries decides to throw a party and invite random girls while the Kardashian sisters are out of town, and Scott Disick dabbles in Judaism.
At least the story editors and writers thought up some new angles this week.
What did Kris say about the big party? Is Scott serious? Was Jonathan really planning to blindside Kim? THG breaks down Sunday evening's drama, +/- style:
Kris Jenner tells Kim about Cheban's scheme to shop a tell-all about her. She's, like, devastated. Naturally, she found out from her mother of all people. Plus 5.
Kim worries that Jonathan is using her like everyone else. Kim, you use everybody else to make millions. 'Memba the wedding? It's a vicious circle. Minus 23.
Maturely, Kim starts a Twitter war with Cheban. Plus 6, as that may be how Kim Kardashian, or at least her professional Tweet writer, actually settles konflict.
Wouldn't you know it, Kim learns it's not a tell-all, but a guide to becoming an "it girl" using her as an example. NOW she feels BAD! Good one, E! Minus 71.
Jonathan hangs up on her after her attempt to apologize. Plus 15.
To make amends, Kim pens the foreward for Jonathan's book, sent over via Kris, obviously. He is touched. They make up, ending the snooze fest. Minus 8.
Seriously, why would Jonathan Cheban sabotage his BFF AND CLIENT? He may be a douche but the man's not an idiot. Minus 40 for expecting us to buy this.
Plus 20 for Jonathan being an inspiration though. He certainly didn't become an L.A. PR heavyweight based on physical attractiveness. Just saying.
Kris, the most mellow guy ever, decides to throw a party in their suite while Kim and Kourtney were in L.A. Totally of his own volition, we're sure. Plus 14.
Things got a little out of control after more people than Kris expected showed up. To a party thrown by an NBA star AND reality star? Stunner there. Plus 9.
Scott warns that the girls will find out. Of course they will, it's on tape! STOP TRYING TO PRETEND THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE AND NON-CELEBRITIES! Minus 2,500.
Kris says he should be allowed to have friends over to his own home. Plus 6, because no matter who he married, you can't argue with the man on that point.
Crazily, pics of the party are sent to K&K! What are the odds! Minus 7.
Scott steps up and takes the blame, saying he had work friends over and things got out of hand. Plus 20, because that was a nice, fake move of the guy.
Kris feels guilty and spills the truth. He feels bad, for no reason at all, and promises his plastic bride that he will never, ever do it again. Weak. Minus 10.
