After a decade of making independent films with personal and political points Salt director Phillip Noyce (Dead Calm, Patriot Games, Rabit-Proof Fence, Quiet American) has returned to the big screen with a sleeper-spy action film. See if it's spiced up his career.
Noyce reflects on his long-time interest in spy stories, the amazing timing of the recent US-Russia spy swap, the impact of growing up in a small Australian town, and working with Angelina Jolie for the first time in ten years. He also reveals that his next project, Dirt Music (a love story and musical) was to have starred Heath Ledger, but has been rewritten for Russell Crowe.
