Angelina Jolie in Wanted! Angelina Jolie's new movie is "Wanted" where she plays a sexy dangerous assassin that fights to keep a world a better place by "killing one to save a thousand"...
It's an action movie and perfect for Angelina to show her sexy bad ass attitude, We don't think it's original and kinda sounds too much like "Mr. & Mrs. Smith", chases, guns and some poetic moral at the end that not every assassin is a brutal insensible murderer. Where did we hear that story before?
Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy are the other shinning stars in this movie, let's see how well it goes in the box office when it's released on June 27th, 2008.

Box Office:
Studio: Universal Pictures
Based upon Mark Millar's explosive graphic novel series and helmed by the stunning visualist director Timur Bekmambetov--creator of the most successful Russian film franchise in history, the "Night Watch" series--"Wanted" tells the story of one invisible drone's transformation into a dark avenger. In 2008, the world will be introduced to a superhero for a new millennium: Wesley Gibson.
25-year-old Wes (James McAvoy) was the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend ignored him routinely and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this disengaged slacker would amount to nothing. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die in his slow, clock-punching rut. Until he met a woman named Fox (Angelina Jolie).
After his estranged father is murdered, the deadly sexy Fox recruits Wes into the Fraternity, a secret society that trains Wes to avenge his dad's death by unlocking his dormant powers. As she teaches him how to develop lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, Wes discovers this team lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by fate itself.
Angelina & Brad rent French Chateau Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have signed a long-term lease for a chateau on the French Riviera, according to reports.
The couple, who have four children and two more on the way, signed a three-year lease on the 880-acre estate called Chateau Miraval, where neighbors will include Johnny Depp and David and Victoria Beckham, according to the French newspaper Nice Matin.
The estate, reportedly valued at $70 million, comes with its own vineyard, olive groves, lake, moat, 20 fountains and even a forest to help ensure privacy.
"They'll have total privacy, which is exactly what they're after," a source told E! Online. "No one will ever be able to get pictures of them relaxing at home, it's just impossible."
At the Cannes International Film Festival, Jolie, 32, who is expecting twins this summer, told reporters that she was thinking of giving birth in France, and that French is the "second language" in the family's home.
A rep for Pitt and Jolie had no comment on the estate.

Angelina Jolie's Cannes BuzzAngelina Jolie is leaving Cannes abuzz with talk of Oscar possibilities and her coming twins.
After a whirlwind week, the 32-year-old star of Changeling and Kung Fu Panda, which both premiered at the film festival, is back at Paul Allen's seaside villa with Brad Pitt, 44, and their growing brood. The couple is laying low to enjoy family time, and were spotted doing some shopping in Nice.
Jolie and director Clint Eastwood, 77, won glowing reviews for Changeling, which got standing ovations Tuesday and predictions of major awards for both the direction and what Variety called Jolie's "top-notch" performance.
Reviewer Todd McCarthy wrote, "Impressive as she may have been as the wife of Danny Pearl, her performance here hits home more directly."
The Los Angeles Times agreed. "Based on this powerful and searing performance, it would be a good bet she will again be in the hunt for the Best Actress nomination that eluded her for A Mighty Heart last year," reviewer Pete Hammond wrote.
The newspaper also called Eastwood's direction "flawless" and the response to the movie "rapturous."
"Angelina is fantastic in Changeling. She is an amazing actress," Clint Eastwood said, and when asked about the Oscar buzz added, "I don't want to think that far ahead."
As for the film's sensitive subject matter of a missing child, Eastwood said: "It was fun making it, but I am a little nervous for parents going to see it."
Jolie had previously debuted Kung Fu Panda with costar Jack Black, which garnered a different kind of attention.
Early word from festival-goers was that the animated Dreamworks flick is a pleasing, kid-friendly romp, but what really made news was Jolie's bountiful belly – it was confirmed during an early interview that she is carrying twins.
