SALT is a big summer thriller that really, REALLY wants to be the next BOURNE franchise and nearly succeeds in doing so until a completely brain-dead third act derails the entire film. Fortunately, the movie is entertaining enough to warrant a big screen viewing and star Angelina Jolie does her absolute best with the material at hand, so all is not lost.

Turns out, SALT (hitting theaters this Friday) might have gone pretty heavily under the knife to get that coveted PG-13 rating. According to a pretty informative Q&A with director Phillip Noyce and producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura over at CinemaBlend (click HERE to read the full piece), SALT was originally more of an R-rated affair that even featured (shock!) a sex scene between star Angelina Jolie and her on-screen husband August Diehl. However, during the cutting of the movie, the sex scene (briefly glimpsed in the original trailer) and a good deal of backstory for Jolie’s character got dumped by the wayside. Hold on, scratch that, not a good deal of backstory, ALL OF IT got dumped.

Not sure how reliable you want to consider this next bit of info, but E! Online is reporting that Kristen Stewart is in talks to star in WANTED 2. As you might remember, Angelina Jolie was up to return for the sequel (not sure how that would have worked considering her character’s fate in WANTED), but then she dropped out of the project propelling into development hell.

Psyched for WANTED 2? Well, you might have to wait a little bit longer, as in “it may never happen now”. Angelina Jolie has bailed on the sequel (her involvement in which never made much sense) in favor of the sci-fi drama GRAVITY. Click on the pic for the full story…

For months now, WANTED director Timur Bekmambetov has been talking up the fact that Angelina Joline’s character from the original was being written into the sequel. Of course, anyone who’s seen WANTED has probably been wondering exactly how that was going to happen.
