Angelina Jolie reportedly wants Mariane Pearl to be her bridesmaid. The actress - who is believed to be marrying partner Brad Pitt this summer - struck up a close friendship with the French journalist when she played her in 2007 movie 'A Mighty Heart'.

A source close to the star said: "Angelina really wants Mariane to be there when she marries Brad. She has become a very important part of her life."

Angelina's brother, James Haven is expected to be the best man. It has also been reported that Angelina wants her estranged father, actor Jon Voigt, to give her away.

Brad and Angelina are believed to be marrying in June on Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen's yacht. The couple and their four children are currently staying at Paul's villa in France while they find a home of their own in the country, ready for Angelina to give birth.

'A Mighty Heart' told the story of Mariane's husband, Wall Street reporter Daniel Pearl, who was kidnapped and beheaded by Islamic extremists six years ago.
