Angels and Demons re-teams director Ron Howard and star Tom Hanks for the sequel to their international blockbuster adaptation of Dan Brown's novel The Da Vinci Code. Although the book Angels and Demons was written before the novel The Da Vinci Code, the movie transpires after the events of the earlier movie. Hanks stars as professor Robert Langdon, the most respected symbologist in the United States, who uses his knowledge in order to decode a symbol on the skin of a murder victim. The clues put him on the trail of an international conspiracy involving the Catholic Church. Ewan McGregor and Ayelet Zurer also star in the Sony Pictures production.

Re: Angels and Demons
Brown's latest Vatican thriller is top film.
Dan Brown's first Vatican thriller "Angels and Demons" shot to the top of the box office with one of the highest opening weekend takes this year, according to Screen International on Tuesday. Skip related content
With "Da Vinci Code" director Ron Howard again in charge and Tom Hanks as Harvard professor Robert Langdon -- this time on the trail of kidnappers and an anti-matter bomb -- the film took just over 6 million pounds.
That beats last week's chart-topper "Star Trek" which took 5.9 million pounds but still falls short of the X-Men prequel of Wolverine which took 6.6 million pounds at the start of May.
Star Trek, the remake of the classic 1960s TV series, was down in second spot while spooky animated movie "Coraline," slipped one place to third.
Razor-clawed Hugh Jackman in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," was down at four from three with the early secrets of the sideburned mutant, just above Disney's "Hannah Montana: The Movie," starring Miley Cyrus, which was down a place at five.
Set in the New York City underworld of bare-knuckle boxing, "Fighting" was new at six.
Matthew McConaughey in romantic comedy "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" was down two at seven while political thriller "State of Play" fell to eight from six with Russell Crowe exposing corruption as an investigative reporter.
Three-D blockbuster "Monsters Vs Aliens" slipped a place to nine while teen comedy "17 Again" fell three to 10th spot with Matthew Perry as a middle-aged man morphing into Zac Efron as his former 17-year-old self.
