His name may be inked on Angelina Jolie's arm, but Billy Bob Thornton himself is all over Patricia Arquette's lap.

Patricia and Billy Bob are filiming the thriller Sun. Patricia plays Scarlett the Stripper and Billy Bob is a poduck-junction police officer. Storyline is quite simple: transsexual is murdered and the town's higher officials are, of course, involved in the cover-up. Billy Bob and Scarlett are determined to expose the truth. They film hasn't started filming yet, but by next month Angelina will be practicing her pole dancing as well.
