Angelina Jolie Ever wondered just who could fill Tom Cruise's shoes?

If you were thinking someone with brawn and balls, think again.

Try brains, beauty and a buff bod in the form of Angelina Jolie.

According to IMDB, Ange is in talks to take the lead role in the thriller Edwin A Salt, a job initially said to be heading Tom's way.

Insiders say the script was orginally written for a male lead but that Ange has shown an interest.

Apparently the mother of six is close to signing on the dotted line to play the lead character.

We wonder what new name they'll come up with for her character instead?

How does Edwina Salt sound?

Not bad, we say.

However, seeing as how neither Tom nor Ange's peeps have confirmed anything, we'll have to sit tight before sending in our ideas to the head honchos at the movie studios.
