Paramount Pictures has got some good tastes. Not only have they picked up what looks to be a cool action thriller, but the project comes packaged with Angelina Jolie.

Angelina Jolie Teams With Paramount for Thriller

Paramount Pictures has acquired life rights to intelligence operative Kathi Lynn Austin, whose adventures in arms trafficking and terrorism will inspire an action thriller vehicle with Angelina Jolie already onboard to star.

Austin, who has most recently worked on contract for the U.N. Security Council, has undertaken field missions in Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia and Central America. The drama will focus on a fictional arms dealer inspired by Victor Bout, the shadowy Russian who is considered one of the world's most prolific dealers in illegal munitions.

What is this? I thought the biggest arms dealer was Yuri Orlov. You know, Lord of War. (Great film by the way)

Austin's stories offer franchise potential for Paramount.


Angelina is currently filming The Changeling for Clint Eastwood and Universal. She and the rest of her curves can be seen in theaters with Beowulf. She may be in CG, but she still looks great.
