The Hollywood couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are planning to do a film together, reported E! News.
At the Oscars red carpet on Sunday, Jolie told E! about a possible collaboration: "We're talking about it. We have an idea."
The couple met on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith in 2005.
Jolie insisted, however, that the new film will not be a romantic comedy.
"We don't know how funny we are," Jolie said. "And you never know what you want to see an actual couple do. Sometimes it's better if they're not a couple."

"I hope to send the odd pic from along the way if I can work out how to use my phone without taking my gloves off!"
