OlderAngelina Jolie Replaces Tom Cruise in “Edwin A. Salt”
Angelina Jolie will be replacing Tom Cruise in the Columbia Pictures espionage thriller Edwin A. Salt.
Variety says Angie is “the rare female who is viable in an action genre that has been almost the exclusive domain of men.” No doubt!!!
Jolie would play the title character, a CIA officer who’s accused by a defector of being a Russian sleeper spy and must elude capture long enough to establish her innocence. Edwin A. Salt will be rewritten by the movie studios and will undergo a title change, obviously.
Tom had long been rumored to take the project but eventually bowed out because (reportedly) a $20 million salary wasn’t possible. The film will reunite Angie will her Bone Collector director, Philip Noyce.
Wow, who saw this one coming!? More spy chick Angie! Woo!!!!!

ALREADY, ANGIE? YOU JUST HAVE THE BABIES!
LOVE YOU, BTW
Sounds fun, just what she needs!
It’s in preproduction and sounds like it needs a script rewrite… it’ll be a long time before she films. Plenty of time to be with the lil ones.
Man, you are fast. It sounds like a great project in development for AJ. AJ is an in demand actress and can handle action roles as well as drama. I am looking forward to Changeling.
so tom wouldn’t do it b/c they wouldn’t pay him 20 million? is he out of his mind? he’s box-office poison! no one wants him these days…
Great angie is ALWAYS kick as s in these types of movies, you go girl.

Hanging out with hotties all in a day’s work for Adriana Barraza
You’ve worked with your share of hunks.
Gael García Bernal [in Babel and Perros] is a total pleasure. As for Brad Pitt in Babel, I mostly talk to him on the phone. I was in Miami, and he was in Marrakech. But I did get to meet him, and I have to say he is just as good-looking in person as he is on screen. Maybe more. You don’t realize how tall he is. He was very courteous, a gentleman.
…`that’s a lie, jared. a big fat lie! and you know it!
This confirms what Geyer Kosinski said about her clout in HW.
OMG OMG OMG FINALLY
….if it’s true
LEAD FEMALE ACTOR ROLE =) SHE CAN DO IT, IF ANYONE, AND NOT F*** IT UP
This confirms what Geyer Kosinski said about her clout in HW. Angelina Jolie is viable in an action genre.
It’ll be FOREVER before she starts, between RE-writing the script, picking new co-stars, picking location, etc. etc. so haters, back off.
Great news!!! I can’t wait
Angie is the greatest actress in Hollywood at the moment. GO ANGIE !!!
I love seeing AJ on the screen and I love spy movies.
Love Angelina Jolie.
WTG Angie. Awesome news. Thanks Jared. Bye bye Crazy Tom lol
Tom wanted 20 million. Is he crazy? No one will pay him that anymore.
But Angie in this will be fantastic. Much better than Tom could be! You rock Angie.
yay :D
love her
read this at the fraternity.
Wowee!!
I’d sooner see an Angelina movie before a Tom Cruise movie any day of the week! So this is good news
Great News. Its good to see Angelina take on these action movies (Lara Croft, Wanted) and make them her own, just like she takes on the crazy girl movies (girl interrupted and gia) and makes them her own, or just like she takes on the serious roles like Wallace, AMH and Changeling and makes them her own and other ones in between such as Jane Smith or Amelia and makes those roles her own.
Now let’s hear it from the crowd who says that she can only do crazy girl parts - heheheheheheheh
ohhh poor tom tom! tehehe
