Naomi Watts Joins the Cast of Angels and Demons

Naomi Watts has landed a major role opposite Tom Hanks in Angels and Demons, according to The New York Post.

The prequel to the The Da Vinci Code, which will also be directed by Ron Howard, has had its production start pushed back due to the writers' strike.

"It's been put off at least until February," said one insider to the newspaper.

Angels and Demons arrives in theatres in 2009.

Angels & Demons was released May 15th, 2009 and stars Tom Hanks, Ewan McGregor, Ayelet Zurer, Stellan SkarsgÄrd, Pierfrancesco Favino, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Thure Lindhardt. The film is directed by Ron Howard.

    well i will have to see how this works. She is supposed to be Italian if im not mistaken. I will have to get my book back out and make sure but I think they made a mistake this time. You guys got to get everything right. I like Watts, but she is...well not Italian.

    The character is supposed to be a sexy Italian chick (Lupo - Town called Eureka), this is a poor choice of casting.
    I enjoyed The Davinci code big time :o)

    I liked The Davinci Code, I thought it was a good mystery movie (if you can be impartial, put aside religeon, and understand it is fiction). I look forward to seeing this movie as well, and hope it's at least as entertaining as I found The Davinci code.

    Isn't the character meant to be European? Naomi is as Anglo as they come. Sick of this style of casting, but its typical. I can't believe how much I'd like to burn Hollywood to the ground. And, really, did you see what they did to the last film (DaVinci Code)? No-one with any taste whatsoever can say that that was good. Bah Humbug!

    She will be a great Vittoria Vetra. I hope the movie will be as interesting as the book. You don't have to believe what's in the book, it's just fiction.
