Angelina Jolie To Take Over For Tom Cruise In Action Film

 

Angelina Jolie is reportedly set to take on an action role originally thought to be going to Tom Cruise.

Several male actors were interested in the Edward A. Salt CIA drama but since Cruise dropped out it looks like the lead role will now go to a woman.

Variety reports that the script will be redrafted to accommodate a female lead after Jolie expressed her interest.

Edward A. Salt will also now have to undergo a title change.

The film tells the tale of a CIA officer who is accused by a defector of being a Russian sleeper spy and must elude capture long enough to establish their innocence.

For just having twins and having 6 children total, she sure is in talks with a lot of movies..
