Actress Angelina Jolie will not star in the remake of Murder on the Orient Express.
 
The 41-year-old Oscar-winning actress, who was reported as being in early talks and was in negotiations to join the cast, never signed a deal to appear in Kenneth Branagh-directed movie, reported Variety.
 
The makers are now trying to interest a number of other big stars, with Charlize Theron among the actresses being considered. Kenneth will also star as detective Hercule Poirot.
 
 
Blade Runner 2 fame Michael Green is writing the screenplay based on Agatha Christie's novel, with Steve Asbell overseeing the production for Fox Studios.
