E! News is reporting that the studio and director behind the sequel to Wanted are thinking of having Kristen Stewart follow in Angelina Jolie's footsteps as the female lead, starring alongside James McAvoy.
Their Insider says Kristen was approached and met with Timur Bekmambetov, the director of the series. Bekmambetov said that he would bring back Jolie's character in some capacity since she was killed in the first movie. Jolie dropped out of the sequel because of money and scheduling issues.
Neither Bekmambetov nor a rep for Stewart responded to E!'s request for comment.
