Angelina Jolie May Replace Tom Cruise in a Spy Movie

Angelina Jolie may be taking over Tom Cruise's role in the new spy thriller, "Edwin A. Salt."

The part of a CIA agent that must prove he is not a Russian sleeper spy out to assassinate the president was originally intended for Tom Cruise, but he decided not to take it.  Then when they heard that Angelina was interested, the studio had screenwriter Kurt Wimmer rewrite the role for a woman.  The movie's title will also change, but Phillip Noyce will remain as director.

It didn't take Jolie long to get back to work.  She just gave birth to twins, Vivienne and Knox, on July 13th and already has two movies in the works.  She is set to star in the drama "Atlas Shrugged" and is negotiations with "Edwin A. Salt."  A role that I think will be better played by Jolie.
