JENNIFER Aniston‘s romance with Justin Theroux seems to have gotten the thumbs down from his cousin Louis Theroux.

Louis — a documentary maker in the UK — says Justin probably finds the interest in his romance with Jennifer “odd”.

“She’s used to it, she’s been world famous for a good 15 years. This is a different thing for him. He wasn’t massively famous – not like now,” Louis told British magazine Grazia.

“They live in LA so I don’t know a great deal about their lives, but I think it must be quite odd for him.”

“The heart wants what it wants, so I think it would be a bit mean of me to begrudge the happiness that he has found,” Louis added.

Meanwhile, it’s been claimed that Aniston is letting Theroux in on her business empire.

“He wants to turn her into a shrewder business-woman and expand her empire,” a source told the National Enquirer.

“Justin is coming off a major career setback since Rock of Ages and Wanderlust tanked, and he’s already talking about sinking her money into another collaboration.

“She trusts Justin 100 percent.”

Aniston is said to be tired of her lackluster movie career, so has taken BFF Courteney Cox‘s advice to land a top-notch TV project – prob­ably for HBO or Showtime – where she can reinvent herself as she makes the transition to mature leading lady

“Jennifer’s looking for an edgy, character-driven show along the lines of Edie Falco’s Nurse Jackie, Mary- Louise Parker in Weeds or Glenn Close in Damages,” a source said.

“She’s tired of so-so film scripts, bad movie reviews and disappointing box-office sales. She also thinks she’s getting too old to star in big-screen romantic come­dies.

“So after a heart-to-heart with Courteney, she made up her mind to reinvent herself as a serious actress back on TV where she got her start.

“”She joked she’ll even play a one-legged, crack-addicted prostitute as long as it’s a believable role.

“Jen hasn’t had a great movie re­view since The Good Girl way back in 2002. She’s hoping a dramatic TV role can win her the praise she’s been lacking from her recent films.”
