Dressed in a sixties-inspired red dress and sipping a Pepsi NEXT, Paula Patton invited fans to try the new product at its launch held at The Grove in Los Angeles on Monday (April 9).

 The brunette-beauty was all smiles as she posed with Pepsi’s new offering that prides itself on using 60-percent less sugar while keeping its “real cola taste”. The cola-company simply says that you need to “drink it to believe it.”

Meanwhile, it was just announced that the “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol” star was offered a role in the new flick, “2 Guns” opposite Denzel Washington. He and Mark Wahlberg will lead the film, which will be directed by “Contraband” director, Baltasar Kormakur. 

The film is inspired by Steven Grant’s graphic novel of the same name, which centers around a DEA agent and a Naval Intelligence officer who plan on robbing a bank that is believed to be the front for a mob. 

There’s a twist. Neither knows the other is a cop and, once they pull off the crime, it’s discovered that they robbed the CIA not the mob. The plot continues to unwind revealing endless twists and turns.
