Angelina Jolie is set to replace Tom Cruise as the lead in the upcoming espionage thriller, Edwin A. Salt according to Variety.

The flick will be rewritten for Angie, who is set to play a CIA officer accused of being a Russian spy, who must dodge her fellow agents until she can prove her innocence. After doing films like Wanted, Tomb Raider, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith, this seems like the perfect role for my favorite female action star!

Obviously, the film will undergo a title change, and some technical adjustments, but it looks like neither Angie nor the studio will have to work too hard to make this movie kick some serious box office ass!
