Angelina Jolie was suppose to act as Kay Scarpetta (2009) but fans of Patricia Cornwell's bestselling crime novels were not happy. This is because they perceive Angelina Jolie as too glamous and exotic looking compare to All-American beauty, Kay Scarpetta.
Kay Scarpetta is the character in Patricia Cornwell's novel, who is based on former Virginia Chief Medical Examiner Marcella Fierro, married psychologist Benton Wesley in the 2008 installment.
Apart from that, Jolie is too young at that time to act as 40s.
Jodie Foster was approached to play the role but she rejected and many rooted for Elizabeth Mitchell.
Patricia Cornwell met with Jolie on the set on her last film Salt to talk about the role and she shared,"Angelina had pithy things to say about what she wanted to do'".
"She was direct and goal-oriented. She waited on everyone, getting them their lunch, while her own staff was seated. She was aware intuitively how other people were feeling and wanted to make them comfortable. It was not typical for people of her stature."
