Angelina Jolie interview: "Wanted"

Angelina Jolie talked at length with Entertainment Weekly about her new role as a foxy assassin in the new action “Wanted“.

When told that the plot of Wanted sounded like “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” Angelina added that it’s really Mrs. Smith after she killed Mr. Smith, “went into depression and got very, very, very moody“. Well, Angelina wanted got the role because she was looking for something physical, where she can play being aggressive and get out of herself a little. This was right after her mom died and she had a baby. But her character Fox is someone who doesn’t get a thrill killing people, but does it because “she doesn’t have a life outside of (killing)”. With Angelina’s complex personality, she seems to be playing Fox very well.

Wanted comes to theaters June 27, 2008 and also stars James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, Konstantin Khabensky. The film is directed by Timur Bekmambetov for Universal.
