Britney Spears and Mel Gibson got together for a dinner at Russian restaurant Romanov in Hollywood on Saturday. While it’s unclear what the celebrities, both of whom are no stranger to controversy, discussed as they dined on filet mignon and water, new reports claim a new gig for Britney could be in the works. We hear fifty-two year old Mel wants to offer Britney the role of Joan of Arc in his upcoming film The Passion of Joan of Arc, a remake of the 1928 movie of the same name.

Mel believes Britster has all the crazy stuff it takes to play the French holy martyr.

“She will particularly empathise with Joan in the scene where she shaves her hair off, after hearing God inside her head.”
