From Paris, With Travolta

Nov 10, 2008 at 2:29pm

Looks like you’re really getting your locks off, John Travolta.

The Pulp Fiction actor is sporting a Mr. Clean look as he films the Pierre Morel-directed action-thriller From Paris With Love with co-star Jonathan Rhys Meyers (of The Tudors fame).

The film, scheduled for a March 2009 release, involves a young embassy worker who hooks up with an American spy in the French capital—with spine-tingling results!

Production has already resulted in some hairy situations. In October, filming was temporarily halted when the flick’s producers refused to pay a local gang protection money, and ten stunt cars were set on fire.

Maybe that accounts for Travolta’s shorn-scalp look.  He might be trying to shield his identity and avoid further trouble from the local ruffians. It wouldn’t be the first time that he’s donned a disguise to get a movie done.
