Salt is allegedly getting ready for a sequel.
The rumor is that Columbia is getting all geared up to get the sequel rolling and that Angelina has final say on whether or not the script is to her liking.
Well of course she does, without Angelina, there will be no Salt 2.
Just like without Angelina, there is no Wanted 2.
Which is kinda funny.
Salt raked in $295,713,467 gross (so far) while Wanted pulled in $341,433,252 gross.
Yet Salt is the sequel that Angelina is interested in.
Was Salt that much of a better story?
Rotten Tomatoes gave Salt a 62% and says...
" Angelina Jolie gives it her all in the title role, and her seasoned performance is almost enough to save Salt from its predictable and ludicrous plot."
Rotten Tomatoes gives Wanted a 72% and says...
"Wanted is a fast-paced, crackling thrill ride tailor-made for the Summer audience."
As far as the fans go, Angelina won the People's Choice Award for Favorite Female Action Star and Angelina and Wanted were nominated for the MTV Movie Award for Best Female Performance, the MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss, the MTV Movie Award for Best WTF Moment, the National Movie Award for Best Performance – Female and the People's Choice Award for Favorite Female Movie Star
She and Salt in contrast only got nominated for the People's Choice Award for Favorite Action Star, the People's Choice Award for Favorite Female Movie Star and the Teen Choice Award for Choice Summer Movie Star – Female.
Does Angelina think that Salt is a better bet for a franchise?
Are we looking at Salt 2, 3, 4 etc?
Only time will tell, because we all know she could pull out of a Salt remake at the drop of the proverbial hat.
