Phillip Noyce picks up Salt
It’s a case of Hollywood swings and roundabouts today as a director and star that were planning to make one film together might just have jumped ship for another. And yes, we realise that stretches the roundabout metaphor.
The pair consists of Tom Cruise and director Phillip Noyce, who had been planning to make presidential thriller The 28th Amendment. Now Noyce is negotiating to helm Edwin A Salt, a spy drama that Cruise is seriously pondering starring in.
Edwin A Salt finds a CIA agent accused by a defector of being a Russian sleeper spy and the struggle he has to clear his name. It’s already had the likes of Peter Berg and Terry George attached, and Variety is keeping tabs on it.
