JOHN TRAVOLTA: FROM SCIENTOLOGY KINGPIN TO MAFIA DON

Against all odds, that John Gotti movie about gangster father and son, that’s been talked about for SO MANY years is actually being made! The new title is The Life and Death of John Gotti. And it’s a family affair – John Travolta is starring as the flamboyant mobster, his wife Kelly Preston is playing his movie wife Victoria Gotti, and their daughter Ella Bleu, 16, is playing the Gotti’s daughter Angel. Sounds weird, but back in 2011, Lindsay Lohan ALMOST had the role of Victoria and Ben Foster was asked to play John Gotti Jr! After years of script, director, and money problems, the film is full steam ahead – shooting in Manhattan. (Entourage’s Kevin Connolly is directing!) Travolta IS getting into character (above) and we love his new hair – he should keep it that way. We can’t help thinking about the similarities between Scientology and the Mafia….

    Entertaining actor sometimes. Big scientology cult member which sucks.

    I can’t believe he is still with Preston after all of his boyfriends.

    he’s a great actor. this should be good.

    Agree, he needs to keep the new hair, even the grey much better than when he does the pitch black do.

    This must be his new ‘look’. His hair and facial expression were exactly the same in the OJ Simpson series when he played Robert Shapiro.

    p.s. Janet, we are long overdue for a new blind item 😉

    The whole Gotti thing is so played out. This will be in the walmart $1 dvd bin as soon as it’s released
