Mr Smith & Mrs Brewster?

“Fast and the Furious” star linked to TV pilot


Casting director Joseph Middleton does it again.

The veteran star plucker – you’ll remember him from TVs ‘Project Greenlight’ – has chosen Jordana Brewster (one of the most in-demand actresses at the moment) to star in the “Mr & Mrs Smith” pilot.

Assumingly, she’ll wear the skirt previously occupied by Angelina Jolie in the film.

The pilot, which is set to start shooting over the next couple of months, picks up about six months after the end of the film, and follows our typical suburban married couple – who just happen to be undercover assassins on the side – as they struggle to keep the spark in their marriage going, even as they try to save the world.

Brewster, best known for her roles in the films “The Fast and the Furious” and “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre : The Beginning”, has been in talks for quite a few pilots this year – but this is obviously the one that took her interest the most (and probably has the best chance of survival).
