Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt quietly rekindled their relationship several months ago, and not it appears the pair are ready to make it official.
A report from The Sun has claimed the former lovers are ‘seriously’ considering starring together in a new romantic comedy.
‘As well as being back in touch as friends, suddenly an opportunity has cropped up that would put Brad and Jen in a major movie together for the first time – and they’re seriously considering it,’ a source told Heat magazine.
Although, the roles would not see the pair play lovers. They would need to interact on screen though.
‘It’s not like they would be playing lovers or anything, but the project is in the romantic comedy genre and their characters would cross paths. The movie producers are really excited and feel this would be dynamite casting,’ the source continued.
Brad and Jen have only ever appeared on screen together once, in 2001 when the actor made an appearance on Friends.
The couple wed in 2000 only to divorce five years later in 2005.

Earlier this year, it was revealed that Pitt and Aniston were ‘back together’ with the help of George Clooney – seemingly confirming New Idea’s exclusive report that he had engineered the couple’s reunion.
According to Star, when Angelina Jolie left Brad’s life, party-loving George was excited to return, having allegedly been shunted out of the actor’s life by a disapproving Ange. And he reportedly relished the opportunity to facilitate a thawing between Brad and his ex-wife Jen.
‘They’ve been secretly getting together for late night hook ups, and it’s all because of George,’ a source told Star.
‘George was the first person to call him when his marriage to Angie imploded. After Jen and Justin Theroux announced their split, he encouraged Brad to reach out and give their relationship another chance.’
Just last week, reports surfaced that the couple had ‘recommitted’ to each other, 18-years after they first got married.
Multiple sources revealed that they decided to ‘take a leap of faith’ and pledged their commitment to each other all over again.
‘It’s been the blockbuster news that everyone’s been hoping for since Brad and Jen got divorced,’ says a friend. ‘They were recently married in a commitment ceremony.
‘They just didn’t want to wait any longer when it came to the next phase of their lives together.’
