It seems it's been awhile since Triumph has gotten one of their bikes into films. They have a history of supplying bikes to Hollywood, particularly for action movies. This summer, Triumph is coming back in Salt. Angelina Jolie, actress, hottie and motorcyclist, rides a matte graphite Street Triple R in this latest spy thriller. According to rumor, she asked for this bike specifically and had four on set.
I may have to go see it and it features my bike, in my color! And of course the movie and Angelina both look good.
(Short bike clips start at 1:42.)
Here is Eunice Huthart, Angelina's stunt double, doing some of the riding. I'm not sure what parts Eunice was needed for, as Jolie should be a pretty accomplished rider, considering that her and her hubby built their own private motorcycle race track at their home in France. What a gal - it makes you wonder if Jolie has a Street Triple R of her own at home.
