Jennifer Aniston reveals new career wish
The 52-year-old actress has been one of the most famous faces in Hollywood for decades and revealed that her next career goal is to tread the boards on The Great White Way but she would need to find the "right piece" before she committed to it.
She told PEOPLE: "I definitely want to do a Broadway play, That's on my bucket list but it's finding the time and finding the right piece, the right material.
"But I absolutely have to do a play on Broadway."
The Marley and Me star shot to fame in the late 1990s when she was cast as Rachel Green in Friends, and if she does make it to Broadway, she will become the second cast member to do so following David Schwimmer's 2006 appearance in the play The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial.
Other A-Listers to have starred on Broadway in more recent times include the likes of George Clooney - who was recently nominated for a Tony for his role in Good Night and Good Luck, whilst Succession star Sarah Snook was named Best Actress for The Picture of Dorian Gray.
Meanwhile, Jennifer - who starred in various Off-Broadway productions before she found global fame - recently admitted that it is only in more recent years that she has learned to "love" her body.
She told Allure: "We've got to love our bodies. It's doing the best it can. It's been with us since the day we started, so we can't be too hard on it.
"Of course, we're all going to grow older, but how can we thrive as we grow older? And that is about giving your body the attention that it deserves."
"For me personally, I loved my 30s, but my 20s were nothing. I was a nightmare.
"I didn't understand working out until my 30s and 40s."

I'm uninterested in media training, says Renee Rapp
Renee Rapp is "really uninterested" in media training. The 25-year-old star is well-known for being outspoken in media interviews, and Renee insists that she has no intention of changing her approach. During an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Renee explained: "There's such an adjustment to — what a 'pick me' thing to say, but there's such an adjustment to having cameras on you in your conversations and in your personal life in a way. It just inherently is an adjustment. "I was like, I am truly just doing what I would be doing and talking how I would be talking except for being filmed or doing something or putting it out there, putting it in a song, putting it in whatever. "And then to like see it back is really kind of confusing because then you start to perceive yourself in a way that like other people perceive you. However, you'll never be able to see yourself how other people see you." Renee's team have actively encouraged her to be more careful with her words in media interviews. However, the actress has no plans to change her ways. She said: "I feel like I feel like people have tried [to change her]. "They were trying to kind of coach me into, like, what to say and what not to say. And it was kind of like the second I realised it, I totally just tapped out and I was like, 'Oh, I'm really uninterested in hearing this.'" Meanwhile, Renee previously admitted to being "very sensitive" and "protective" of herself. The actress - who played Regina George in the Mean Girls Broadway musical - told InStyle: "My biggest fear is being misunderstood. I'm a very passionate person. I'm very sensitive. I am protective." Renee believes people often mistake her sensitive nature for her "just being a b****". The movie star said: "I think that sometimes people can construe that as me just being a b****. "I just have very big emotions and I feel very hard. It was really hard to live like that when I was a kid. It was very difficult. Living was exhausting."

Brad Pitt's mother dies aged 84
Brad Pitt's mother Jane Pitt has died. The retired school counsellor has passed away at the age of 84, People reports. Brad's niece, Sydney, has already taken to social media to pay a glowing tribute to Jane, explaining that she "cared deeply for everyone and everything". Alongside a series of throwback photographs, Sydney wrote: "My sweet Grammy, Jane Etta, we were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier. "If you knew Grammy, you knew she had the biggest heart. She cared deeply for everyone and everything, no questions asked. "She taught me how to paint, how to be strong, how to lead with kindness, to love Jesus through everything, and to find joy in the smallest things. She made up the silliest games just to make us laugh, and she believed in fairness, in putting others first, and doing good simply because it was the right thing to do. "Every year before school, she gave each of us grandkids a 'special day' which was a whole day to do whatever we wanted (and Papa had to go along with it… though I know he secretly loved it too). Mine usually started with banana splits for breakfast, hours of playing Trouble, a craft project obvi, riding every ride together at Silver Dollar City like the bada** she was, dinner at Olive Garden with Papa, mini golf where she'd make a V with her feet to help me aim… (and somehow still beat me) and ending the night watching Paulie until we feel asleep. "She could keep up with all 14 of us grandkids without missing a beat. There was no limit to the love she gave, and everyone who met her felt it. "I don't know how we move forward without her. But I know she's still here in every brushstroke, every kind gesture, every hummingbird. She was love in its purest form. "We were truly blessed to have her to love on growing up and I know she lives on through each of us (sic)" Brad has yet to make a public comment about his mom's passing. However, he recently gave a shout-out to his mom during an appearance on the Today show. He told anchor Savannah Guthrie: "I gotta say hi to my mom because she watches you every morning. To Jane Pitt. Love you, mom."

Jonathan Bailey hails 'extraordinary' Scarlett Johansson
Jonathan Bailey thinks Scarlett Johansson is "extraordinary". The 37-year-old actor starred alongside Scarlett, 40, in Jurassic World Rebirth, and Jonathan loved the experience of working with his showbiz pal. He told Extra: "She's one of my favourite people I've met. She's extraordinary." Jurassic World Rebirth was directed by Gareth Edwards and also starred the likes of Mahershala Ali, Rupert Friend, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, and Ed Skrein. Jonathan felt fortunate to work with such a talented group of people on the movie. He said: "We didn't actually talk about the script at all. But when you're going into something like this, it shows the sort of mercurial magic of, you know, putting people together, surrounding it with incredible special effects people, Gareth with his team and people he's worked with before." Jonathan jumped at the chance to become part of the Jurassic film franchise. The actor - who also stars the Wicked movies - shared: "When you're doing this, there's nothing to complain about, like at all! "You know, of course you wanna feel the heat, you wanna feel like you're about to pass out at points, but also, you know, like, wading through the mangroves in Thailand with a film crew. It's like..." Meanwhile, Scarlett recently revealed that she had to contend with some "extraordinary circumstances" on the set of Jurassic World Rebirth. The actress filmed the movie in places like Malta and Thailand, and Scarlett admitted that she found it to be an "insane" yet rewarding experience. Speaking to People, she shared: "We all laughed a lot, and we were thrown into such extraordinary circumstances physically. "Half our set would wash away, and then ten minutes later it would grow too large, and there's no continuity to anything because the sun was moving in. It was just insane." Scarlett actually recalled one particularly scary experience when they were filming in Thailand. The actress said: "When we first got to Thailand, we had to do a camera test of the full costume and all that stuff, and just putting all the pieces of the costume together and then standing in a mosquito-infested bush, I was like, 'This is really happening.'" In another scene, Scarlett wore a harness to navigate her way down a cliff. And the Hollywood star now admits that it was a painful experience. She said: "We wore harnesses under our actual harness. "You have a movie harness that looks like a harness, then you have an actual harness that's hooked up to a line, because you're not actually abseiling, you're on a stunt rig. "I was happy to say goodbye to the harness!"
