"What did you learn?" @MLauer asks #MarionCotillard about headlines generated during making of @AlliedMovie concerning her and #BradPitt
Marion Cotillard acknowledged rumors that she had an affair with her Allied costar Brad Pitt prior to the actor’s split from his estranged wife, Angelina Jolie, during an appearance on the Today show on Thursday, November 17.
The French actress, 41, told cohost Matt Lauer that the speculation about a possible romance with Pitt, 52, didn’t bother her in the least. “I never take anything personally when it doesn’t concern me,” Cotillard told Lauer, 58. “And so I didn’t take it personally because I had nothing to do with those rumors or situations.”
Asked if the rumors affected her experience in making the romantic thriller with Pitt, the Oscar winner replied, “No. No, I mean, I don’t give energy to this. It was a wonderful, wonderful experience working with such a visionairy director [Robert Zemeckis] and an amazing actor, so that’s all that matters, you know?”
Back in September, Cotillard’s onscreen chemistry with Pitt led to gossip that their close relationship had played a part in the Fight Club hunk’s split from Jolie, 41. (As previously reported, the Maleficent star filed for divorce on September 19, citing irreconcilable differences.)
In response, Cotillard put the rumors to rest — and revealed she is pregnant and expecting her second child with her longtime boyfriend, Guillaume Canet — in a lengthy September 21 Instagram post.
“Firstly, many years ago, I met the man of my life, father of our son and of the baby we are expecting. He is my love, my best friend, the only one that I need,” she wrote. “Finally, I do very much wish that Angelina and Brad, both whom I deeply respect, will find peace in this very tumultuous moment.”

Marion Cotillard admits she struggles to balance her professional and personal life

'It's about finding the right balance': Marion Cotillard admits she struggles to balance her professional and personal life...
French actress Marion Cotillard has admitted that she sometimes struggles to strike a healthy balance between her work life and her home life.
The 41-year-old - who co-stars opposite Brad Pitt in their new movie Allied - has revealed she can't help put mull over her on-screen characters even when she's not on the set of the film she's working on.
And this is a particularly tricky trait because she is typically drawn towards playing 'disturbed or dramatic people'.
She told the Sunday Times: 'It is about finding the right balance between work and coming home without anything from the character.
'And it's really hard because, when you spend two months on a project, you process in your dreams what you have lived during the day... and I have a tendency to choose disturbed or dramatic people.'
The film star also drew on her fears and the fears of other public figures, confessing that she finds it odd seeing herself age onscreen.
'When you see yourself ageing on screen, it's really weird,' she said. 'It's interesting to experience, and I guess it could be scary, as you have a magnifier on your evolution, what you become.
'It's going to mess you up, as sometimes you are not as strong as you should be. A lot of people live with poison in their head.
'Fear is the most effective poison in this world. Fear of ageing. Fear of the other. Of the unknown... Fear of tomorrow... Fear of death. Because it all ends there.'
In promoting Allied, Marion has faced a backlash as the movie's release has clashed unfortunately with the announcement of co-star Brad's separation from wife Angelia Jolie.
And while Marion's relationship with Brad is strictly professional, there has been a slew of negative press about their on-screen dalliances.
Marion though has turned her attention to welcoming her first child.
On Wednesday night she joined Brad on the red carpet at the Allied premiere in Los Angeles.
She gave maternitywear a red carpet makeover, deciding on a chic, navy blue gown that skimmed over her baby bump.
The sleeveless dress simply featured a neat, sweeping train and a high collar.
Marion confirmed her pregnancy with partner of eight years Guillaume Canet in September.
It was a simultaneous announcement, tainted by her denial about alleged relations with 52-year-old Brad, said to have taken place as they filmed the WWII drama.
'This is going to be my first and only reaction to the whirlwind news that broke 24 hours ago and that I was swept up into,' she said, referring to Angelina's decision to divorce Brad.
'I am not used to commenting on things like this nor taking them seriously but as this situation is spiraling and affecting people I love, I have to speak up'.
She went on: 'Many years ago, I met the man of my life, father of our son and of the baby we are expecting. He is my love, my best friend, the only one that I need.'
Marion went on to wish Brad and Angelina 'peace in this very tumultuous moment,' in her lengthy Instagram response.
Angelina, who has six children with partner-of-12-years Brad, filed for the divorce the day after an alleged altercation between Brad and their eldest son Maddox.
On the same day of the premiere, Brad was cleared for attacking the child on a private jet; an incident which was at the time thought to have prompted their separation in September.
In the film, he plays Canadian intelligence officer Max Vatan who meets and falls in love with French Resistance fighter Marianne Beausejour (played by Marion) during the second world war.
Max is torn when he is told that she is a Nazi spy and that he must kill her, and so their relationship is rocked by suspicion.
