On Sunday, Yahoo! announced that Collins, who passed away over the weekend, wanted Jolie to play Lucky Santaneglo in a movie adaptation of her story because the character is a "kick-a-- woman." And with all of Jolie's accomplished goals in her personal and professional life, this might be the ideal role for her.
"Angelina Jolie could be Lucky," Collins had said. "She was crazy, into everything and now look at her six children and everything going for her."

The late author admitted that she grew up in a household where women weren't treated well, which made her appreciate powerful females more.
"I like strong women," she said. "It comes from the fact that I grew up in a rather chauvinistic household. My father [theatrical agent Joseph Collins] was always very chauvinistic and my mother [Elsa] was always very gentle and laid-back. I didn't like the inequality between them. I felt that she should have had more say in what was going on in the home."
Collins also pointed out how men and women are treated differently in the entertainment industry.
"The film industry is still run by men and a lot of them want to get laid," she said. "They just do these movies where they can coerce young girls into being in the movies. The casting couch is still alive and well in Hollywood. For actresses, it's really tough. You've got 35-year-old actresses playing grandmas. It's ridiculous!"
