Washington, April 14 : Angelina Jolie has given her surety to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) that the fur she used in her new movie Salt was fake.

The `Changeling' actress was snapped sporting a full-length chinchilla poncho along with a matching Russian style winter fur hat as she plays the role of Evelyn Salt, an outed Russian sleeper spy, in the upcoming thriller.

But her representatives confirmed to the animal activists that the fur used was not authentic.

"The chinchilla is actually synchilla," Contactmusic quoted a PETA spokeswoman as saying. (ANI)
