An action-mystery about Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie), an American CIA officer accused of being a Russian spy. The CIA come to believe Salt is under orders to kill the President, so she goes on the run to clear her name and prove she's all-American. Using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative, she must elude capture and protect her husband or the world's most powerful forces will erase any trace of her existence. With a hot, ass-kicking, super spy on the run from officials, Salt is like a female-Bourne - but almost wasn't. The project started life as 'Edwin Salt' with Tom Cruise in talks to take the lead before the gender-switch.
