Comic book scribe Mark Millar’s “Wanted” comic book is finally seeing the light of day as a big screen movie, and it’s got Angelina Jolie attached to star. How about them apples? Via Variety: “Universal Pictures has set Angelina Jolie to star alongside James McAvoy and Morgan Freeman in “Wanted,” an action film based on a graphic novel that Timur Bekmambetov (”Day Watch”) will direct. McAvoy will play a young man who discovers his father is an assassin, only to learn shortly thereafter that his dad has been murdered. The youth is drafted to follow in his father’s footsteps. Jolie will play an assassin who teaches the ropes to the wannabe killer.”

Go figure. And here I thought Jolie had given up movies altogether in order to adopt every kid in the world.
