Angelina Jolie is certainly keeping busy these days! Along with caring for her family of six kids and partner Brad Pitt, she's been dashing around the set of new movie Salt in intense action scenes.

And now the lovely lady has already signed on for her next film, playing Dr. Kay Scarpetta, the heroine of Patricia Cornwall's crime novels, says EW.com's Hollywood Insider column.

The movie won't be focused on any specific novel within the series, but it sounds like Angie will have a lot on her hands portraying the beautiful medical examiner who solves crimes.
