Angelina Jolie: wanted again!


Timur Bekmambetov seems prepared to defy all sense of consistency in order to enable Angelina Jolie to revive her role as Fox for the sequel to "Wanted". Viewers of the first film will no doubt remember the beautiful actress' rather spectacular death right at the end. She took a bullet to the head in broad daylight. However, Bekmambetov, who is directing again, has told MTV that he and his scriptwriters have "found the reason for her to come back" and that it will involve the baths of wax seen in episode one.

Anyway, is it strictly necessary for the laws of plausibility to be adhered to for a film like "Wanted 2"? For people who liked the original, it was probably less down to the depth of the script and more for the depiction of violence and, to be fair, the high visual quality. For those who didn't like it, no doubt they will abstain from the sequel anyway, with or without Angelina!
