Salt
特务间谍》(Salt)
July 23
北美上映时间：7月23日
The Pitch: Conceived as a vehicle for Tom Cruise to play CIA agent Edwin Salt, the movie now stars Angelina Jolie as Salt, now named Evelyn. British character actor Chiwetel Ejiofor ('Children of Men,' 'Dirty Pretty Things') assists a fellow CIA officer played by Liev Schreiber in trying to determine whether Salt is a double agent. Playing a mild-mannered desk jockey, Mr. Ejiofor says he was content to stay on the sidelines and let Ms. Jolie handle the stunts. He notes that the gender gap in action movies was always artificial, anyway. 'Once you understand that guys can't do that s- -- either, then there's really no barrier,' Mr. Ejiofor says.
看点：在《特务间谍》中，原本计划由汤姆•克鲁斯(Tom Cruise)饰演美国中央情报局(CIA)特工埃德温•绍特(Edwin Salt)，如今主演却变成了安吉丽娜•朱莉(Angelina Jolie)，主角的名字也变成了伊夫林(Evelyn)。曾出演过《人类之子》(Children of Men)、《Dirty Pretty Things》(美丽坏东西)的英国性格男演员奇维托•艾吉佛(Chiwetel Ejiofor)协助由里夫•施雷伯(Liev Schreiber)扮演的中情局同事，试图确定主角是否是个双重间谍。艾吉佛在影片中饰演一位举止温文尔雅的内勤人员，他说他很满意自己一直作为旁观者，由朱莉来完成各种特技。他说，无论如何，动作影片中的性别差距总是人为制造的。艾吉佛说，一旦你明白男人也有一些事情是做不了的，就没有什么（性别）障碍了。
The Prospects: Movies like 'Tomb Raider' showed that Ms. Jolie is well equipped to handle high-flying action sequences. With 'Salt,' she aims to add a layer of Bourne-esque ambiguity to the mix.
预期：《古墓丽影》(Tomb Raider)等影片显示出朱莉完全能够胜任高难度的动作戏。在《特务间谍》中，她试图添加一层《谍影重重》(Bourne)式的模糊色彩。
