Short description
As a CIA officer, Evelyn Salt swore an oath to duty, honor and country. Her loyalty will be tested when a defector accuses her of being a Russian spy. Salt goes on the run, using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative to elude capture. Salt's efforts to prove her innocence only serve to cast doubt on her motives, as the hunt to uncover the truth behind her identity continues and the question remains: "Who is Salt?"
What's left behind the scenes
- Tom Cruise was originally slated to star in the film, but he was replaced by Jolie. The script was then rewritten.
- During the story of Evelyn Salt's childhood and her upbringing in a special school located on the grounds of an old monastery, the film shows the Zeltovodsky Makariev Monastery, situated on the banks of the Volga River in the Nizhny Novgorod region.
- Three alternate versions for Blu-ray and DVD include a number of plot changes. The overall length of the film is increased by four minutes. There are more flashbacks, and scenes of violence are more pronounced. The ending of the film is also changed. While in the bunker, Winter kills the President of the United States along with everyone else, and in the final scene, the media reports that the new President of the United States, Joseph Steven, has announced that with Salt's death, the terrorist group she was involved with has been completely destroyed. The President made this announcement during a peace visit to Moscow, where he laid flowers at the site of the plane crash in which his parents and sister died during a visit to Russia in 1974. The final words of the film are a hint that the new President of the United States is one of those who was trained by Orlov as a child. In the extended version of the film, the length is increased by another minute. In the finale, Salt arrives in Russia, where she kills Orlov (the scene of his death on a barge is absent in this version) and destroys the camp where children were trained for future espionage.
- At the beginning of the film, Salt, while fleeing from a pursuit in the CIA building, drops her shoes on one of the staircases, which fall almost on top of each other. In the next shot, when she is being monitored on screens, the shoes are at least half a meter apart.
