Brad Pitt & Madonna to be Extras

Reports say that Brad Pitt and Madonna have both signed on to appear on Ricky Gervais' show, Extras. They will join a long list of A-list actors who have appeared on the comedy including Ben Stiller, Samuel L. Jackson, and Kate Winslet.

If you have HBO and haven't yet checked out Extras, you should. It's a really funny show centered around the failed career of a wannabe actor (Ricky Gervais) who fulfills his dreams by appearing as an extra on various films. The show also stars Ashley Jensen and Stephen Merchant, who along with Gervais co-created Extras and The Office.
