The 23-year-old has landed her first role in a feature film, called Every Time I Go To Staten Island Something Bad Happens.

“It’s a great opportunity for her, she will be starring in a major movie and making good money,” a source close to former Jersey Shore star told RadarOnline.com.

Although the hit MTV series Jersey Shore touted the cast as Jersey natives, Angelina was actually born and grew up in Staten Island, New York, so it’s no coincidence that she’s been offered a movie about the island.
