Angelina Jolie - Salt Trailer Officially Released

The Trailer of Angelina Jolie's new film Salt has finally been released. Salt stars Angelina Jolie, and if the Salt trailer is any indication of what the film is about, this could put Jolie back into the genre that has treated her so well. Angelina Jolie really showed that she could play an action oriented character well in Wanted, and with her role in Salt she is bringing that familiar flavor. Salt could really turn into one of the bigger action films of 2010, and the first trailer was released a bit early to create some buzz and excitement way in advance.

From the looks of the first trailer for Salt, it looks like Jolie is playing a character that is at first caught out of her element, but is soon forced to defend herself against accusations from a Russian spy. Her character works for the CIA and as Evelyn Salt, serves as an interrogator early on in the preview. When something is revealed that questions her job at the CIA, Evelyn Salt is forced to react quickly, and it appears that this sets up a cat and mouse game full of intrigue and a lot of action that will let Angelina Jolie really fight her way out of the situation on screen.

Angelina Jolie was very entertaining in the film Wanted, and it seems that she will get to do many stunts in Salt as well. That's a good thing, because even back in the Tomb Raider movies, Jolie was always good in the action sequences. Those films fell short because of their stories, not because of Jolie, and it’s really nice to see her embracing the action genre once again.

Salt will hit theaters on July 23rd, 2010, and it looks safe to assume that Angelina Jolie could have another hit on her hands with Salt.
