No more churches for Tom Hanks

It’s payback time for Vatican. After releasing the Davinci Code without its approval, it seems that for Tom Hanks and his former colleaguse it is a dead end.

The diocese of Rome has banned Angels and Demons from filming inside its churches because the movie “does not conform to our views,” says spokesman Monsignor Marco Fibbi.

Angels and Demons is a prequel to 2006’s Da Vinci Code – also starring Hanks and also based on a Dan Brown best-seller – which controversially claimed that Jesus Christ married Mary Magdalene and had children.

The producers’ request for filming in some churches was denied.( Rome’s historic churches, Santa Maria del Popolo and Santa Maria della Vittoria)

“It’s a film that treats religious issues in a way that contrasts with common religious sentiment,” Fibbi told the wire service. “Normally we read the script but this time it was not necessary. The name Dan Brown was enough.” 

But we souldn’t worry. Hollywood has its own ways to obtain whatever it wants, right?
