'Salt,' starring Angelina Jolie, Liev Schreiber and Chiwetel Ejiofor, began local shooting at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Wednesday morning.

Upcoming shoot locations over the six days of filming include L'Enfant Plaza, the Navy Memorial and along Pennsylvania Avenue near the White House. The D.C. government expects the production to bring in close to $1 million dollars to the local economy.

Meanwhile, Angelina's other half, also known as Brad Pitt, is already in town. According to the Perez Hilton gossip site, Pitt was spotted leaving an office building on K Street through the back entrance.

He'll probably use the back entrance again on Thursday afternoon, as he meets with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The two will discuss "Make it Right," a project to construct affordable housing for New Orleans residents who lost their homes in Hurricane Katrina.
