If it involves the world’s most beautiful woman, then it’s more than a little newsworthy here at Rotten Tomatoes: Jennifer Connelly has a new gig! She’ll be starring alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Edward Zwick‘s dramatic thriller "The Blood Diamond."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film "centers on a poor African farmer who gets caught up in a conflict between an American diamond smuggler (DiCaprio) and the syndicate that controls the local diamond mining industry.

The story is by Charles Leavitt and C. Gaby Mitchell, with a screenplay by Leavitt and Zwick & Marshall Herskovitz."

And yes, Jennifer Connelly is absolutely the world’s most beautiful woman. It’s been proven by scientists at M.I.T. and NASA.
