Actress Ayelet Zurer has landed the coveted role of Vittoria Vetra in Sony Pictures` upcoming "Da Vinci Code" prequel entitled "Angels & Demons."

While the studio won`t confirm, sources close to the production tell Entertainment Weekly that the Israeli actress, who played Eric Bana`s wife in "Munich" and was last seen in "Vantage Point," has been cast opposite Tom Hanks in the Ron Howard-directed film. The actress was chosen over more well-known stars, including Naomi Watts, who had been in talks for the role, according to previous reports.

Zurer`s character is the daughter of CERN physicist Leonardo Vetra. Following her father`s death, Vittoria pairs with Robert Langdon (Hanks) on a journey to uncover the mystery behind her father`s murder and stop a terrorist plot. Sony has yet to cast the roles of Maximilian Kohler (director of CERN) and Camerlengo Carlo Ventresca (aide to the Pope).
