It's clear in the Academy Award-winning actress' body language and facial gesture that she wasn't happy about producer Scott Rudin's remarks on her as the "minimally talented spoiled brat" during an email conversation between Pascal and Rudin.
The two's email exchange has been exposed in the controversial Sony hack.
Rudin, whose volcanic temper has earned him both the rave and the ire of his colleagues, aired his ill-feelings when he accused Jolie of luring David Fincher, who was supposed to direct the Steve Jobs biopic, to direct the re-make of Cleopatra, who will be portrayed by the Maleficent star.
Rudin hit Jolie in her email exchange with Pascal, calling her "a minimally talented spoiled brat," telling Pascal to shelve Cleopatra.
Pascal, meanwhile, tried to calm Rudin.
"This doesn't need to get crazy," Pascal told Rudin.
The Jobs biopic was eventually dropped by Sony, only to be picked up by Universal.
Rudin then sniped mad at Pascal, telling her she has "behaved abominably, and it will be a very, very long time before I forget what you did."
According to New York Times Pascal then told one of her execs to "get rid of him," referring to the deal with Rudin.
Pascal did not grant any interview to clarify the issue.
On the other hand, Jolie, whose latest film Unbroken, is slated for release on Christmas Day, has not issued any statement.
Unbroken is Jolie's first big-budget directorial gig.
