FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have arranged to meet with Pope Francis at the Vatican.

First the Queen and now the Pope ... it seems that Brangelina are headed for the Vatican.

According to a report in US Weekly,Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have a scheduled "VIP meet-and-greet at the Vatican with Pope Francis" in early January.

Despite Pitt rejecting his Baptist upbringing, a source told the magazine the couple "like the Pope's message" and "admire" him.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in 2012, Pitt, 51, said, "I grew up very religious, and I don't have a great relationship with religion."

"I oscillate between agnosticism and atheism," he said.

The actor also said he wouldn't get married until gay marriage is legalised for everyone.

"We made this declaration some time ago that we weren't going to do it untileveryone can. But I don't think we'll be able to hold out. It means so much to my kids, and they ask a lot. And it means something to me, too, to make that kind of commitment," he said.

Perhaps Pope Francis' stance on gay marriage has led Pitt to have a change of heart.
