From Comingsoon.net, "With Sony Pictures' The Da Vinci Code earning a massive $224 million worldwide its first weekend, Times Online is reporting that the studio is already looking towards a possible follow-up.According to Jeff Blake, vice chairman of Sony Pictures, the studio is hoping to bring another novel by Dan Brown, Angels and Demons, to the big screen:
Tom Hanks could return to star as the Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon, who appeared in the book and will be the hero of Brown's next novel. Mr Blake said: "We are very interested in filming Angels and Demons. We hope that the relationship with Dan Brown will be a long one. That could be the next project."
Angels and Demons was the reclusive author's third novel after he gave up his job as an English teacher. It tells the story of Langdon's brush with a shadowy secret society, the Illuminati, and his frantic quest for the world's most powerful energy source, in the company of a beautiful Italian physicist whose father, a brilliant physicist, has been murdered.
"The Da Vinci Code" was Brown's fourth book."

What's that? Another excuse to post a photo of Audrey Tautou? Ohhhh, okay.
I read Angels and Demons and, while it was a page turner, a lot about it annoyed me. One thing I did like was that it was all set in Rome, a lot of it in places that I'd hit during the few days that I was there myself. Which brings up a sticky point: you know they're not going to let them film in the Vatican after Da Vinci Code, they might even block them from filming in the city.
