NAOMI WATTS - WATTS TO STAR IN DA VINCI CODE PREQUEL

WATTS TO STAR IN DA VINCI CODE PREQUEL

Actress NAOMI WATTS has been lined up to appear in THE DA VINCI CODE prequel alongside TOM HANKS. The King Kong star will play the female lead in the Ron Howard-directed Angels And Demons, reports New York gossip column PageSix. But filming on the movie has been postponed until February (08), as a direct result of the Hollywood writer's strike. Sources claim Oscar-winning screenwriter Akiva Goldman's script still needs work, and he is on strike with his Writers Guild of America brethren. The film bosses have also put the movie's release date back from the end of 2008 to 2009.
