Angelina Jolie Returns To Spying

What the heck has happened to Angelina Jolie? In the space of just a couple of years she’s gone from great actress and hottest woman on the planet to that emaciated scarecrow who keeps holding Brad Pitt back. She’s started to look like one of the starving kids she’s always championing. Just becase you’re in Ethiopia Angie doesn’t mean you have to eat like an Ethiopian. Grab a pizza or something, will ya?

It doesn’t help that her choices in movie roles have ranged from preachy and uninteresting to splashy and repetitive. Doesn’t look like that’s going to change either. Now she’s doing yet another spy movie. Variety says she’s set to star in an action thriller based on real life intelligence operative Kathi Lynn Austin for Paramount.

Austin has traveled the glob as an intelligence operative, most recently working under contract to the UN Security Council in Africa, Europe, Asia, and Central America. The film will have Angelina as Austin facing off against a fictional arms dealer also inspired by a real life figure, a Russian weapons trafficker named Victor Bout. It’s being described as similar in spirit to The Bourne Identity, which is putting the bar pretty high for Angelina’s movie.
