Jamie Oliver Wants Brad Pitt to Play Him in 'Food Fight'

"I want Brad Pitt to play me," Oliver told TODAY.com in London. "He’s the only guy I want. It’d be a good job for Brad to get — I think it’d be good for him to get into some serious cooking."

Oliver always dreams big, and he admits, "My sights are set high." But as one of the best, most attractive actors in Hollywood, Pitt is in high demand. According to Oliver, if Pitt is too busy to jump on the Food Fight bandwagon, Matt Damon would be next in line.
