In SALT 2, Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) resurfaces after years in hiding, now operating in the shadows as a rogue agent dismantling covert threats to global security. When a mysterious faction within the CIA launches “Project Gemini”—a black-ops plan involving sleeper agents embedded across NATO—Salt is forced to return to the U.S. to uncover the mastermind: her former protégé, now turned enemy.
Battling double agents, drone warfare, and psychological warfare, Salt uncovers that the real enemy is an AI-controlled surveillance network capable of activating sleeper agents worldwide. She races against time to dismantle it before World War III erupts.
In a climactic showdown in a hidden Arctic base, Salt sacrifices her anonymity once more, faking her death to destroy the core of Project Gemini. But in the final twist, a decrypted message hints Salt is still alive—preparing for one final mission. The legacy of SALT continues… in the shadows.
