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!!!!!

You would think seeing she doesn’t need the money and now has all those kids, she’d take some more time off and be a mother.

Idiot, she’s doing that as we speak. NEXT.

Thank you

I can’t even tell what she’s wearing on that cover. It looks like they cut up some curtains and just draped them around her. And it looks like someone took a machete to her head. They should fire Wintour behind this.

The top doesn’t match the bottom, ugliest pieces from high-fashion collections, and her hair looks like she cut it in the dark with wrong-handed kiddy scissors.

Mind your business.
Adam @ 08/12/2008 at 12:10 am
So you are not a mom if you are working?
How silly can one be.
Angie’s strength is definitely with action flicks. Good choice.

Sorry, no, many of us have been simply celebrating Angelina.
Lyn, Tom is a good actor who is just having a career crisis right now like everyone does at some point in their lives. That is not hating, that is just reality.

I am a mom and if I could be home with my young kids I most certainly would, I have tried every thing I know other than going on welfare to stay at home for a couple years - just until they start preschool. I hate being gone the 8.5 hours a day I am now let alone for months at a time. I dont see how some of these moms do it.

Hey Jared. The studio long since debunked the budget dispute rumors.
Also, Noyce also left the project. He’s working on a remake of some pirate movie.
It sounds like Cruise left on his own accord. Either because Noyce left or the project was taking so long.

That’s good…i’m fine too
just watching the Olympics like crazy…i think i’m addicted…lol
Yeah. Bone Collector. The funny thing about that film is, if you take every scene in that film that has Angelina in it and leave out the rest, you’d have a great film….
Angie was really great in that film She was so good, supposedly Denzel was jealous.

==================================================
i can’t imagine denzel being jealous. he seems far too professional, gracious, and confident for that sort of behavior.
