Hip hop star, Common, and headline dominatrix, Angelina Jolie, are currently filming the movie Wanted based on the comic book of the same name. Common reports that his character in the film is called “the Gunsmith”, who is, as he describes, “a master at shooting guns. I’m training this gentleman that’s coming in, who really has certain abilities but doesn’t know it; I’m training him on how to be what he should be.” Wanted, the comic book written by Mark Millar and illustrated by J.G. Jones, follows the life of Wesley Gibson as he attempts to become a supervillian under the wing of a jewel thief called Fox. The movie is being filmed in Prague, and also co-stars Morgan Freeman.
