This was released today from Red Founder, Jim Jannard:

"Director Timur Bekmambetov of Bazlevs Film in Moscow, has chosen the RED ONE digital camera for all the digital cinematography used in Universal Pictures', "WANTED", staring Angelia Jolie, Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy. Though the body of the movie will be shot in film, there is a substantial digital component to the filming which will be used by Bekmambetov's VFX and production company in Russia. Wanted begins shooting in Prague in April, 2007."

*edit: As of the release time of "Wanted" it has been mentioned that because of editing choices, the footaqe shot on RED prototype cameras may not have made the final cut. Perhaps we will get to see it in the Directors cut if that is the case.

Timur Bekmambetov's IMDB Credits:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0067457/

Bekmambetov is best known for his directorial work on Dnevnoy dozor (Night Watch), the highest grossing feature in Russian history.

Perhaps he will feel right at home shooting with Red prototypes "Boris and Natasha"?

Jon Farhat, VFX Supervisor for the Feature, "Wanted", currently shooting in Prague, had this to say recently about their experience with the RED Camera:

"We're shooting RED side by side film. We scanned the film 4k and took both into the Baselight, compared them and then did a filmout of both. When we screened side by side, we literally could not tell the difference. In fact, most people picked the RED footage as film because of a greater dynamic range in the highlights than in the 5218. It's not enough to say it is the best digital image out there. The fact is, finally, we can intercut digital with film. It looked remarkably better than the filmed images. I thought I would never be able to say that"
