The Oscar-winning star is one of five actresses to appear on the calendar's 33rd edition, due out in November.
Naomi Watts, Penelope Cruz, Hilary Swank and France's Lou Doillon will also appear, according to reports.
She is quoted by the BBC as saying "[I] had a lot of fun, like a young girl." Pirelli has denied reports she has been photographed nude.
