At the beginning of her career, CIA agent Evelyn Salt (ANGELINA JOLIE) swore an oath to her honour and her country. But when a defector accuses Salt of being a Russian sleeper agent, she must flee. To avoid arrest, protect her husband’s life and remain one step ahead of her CIA colleagues, Salt must rely entirely on her skills and years of experience as an undercover operative.
The leading role in this contemporary spy thriller is played by none other than Angelina Jolie (“Changeling”, “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”). She is joined by Liev Schreiber (“Taking Woodstock”, “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”) and Chiwetel Ejiofor (“2012”, “Children of Men”). Phillip Noyce directed, and the screenplay was written by Kurt Wimmer and Brian Helgeland.
Cinema release: August 26, 2010
