Odd, her name isn't mentioned among the cast. I think there's a picture with her in it with the Director, but that's it.

Ex-congressman's made-for-Hollywood story is to become a film
By Maria Recio
McClatchy Newspapers
Posted on Mon, Mar. 19, 2007

Charlie Wilson, a Texas congressman known for his foreign exploits,
love of beautiful women, fun-loving lifestyle and serious legislating,
always seemed to be a creation of Hollywood.

Now, he is.

The former Democratic lawmaker, who retired in 1996, is the main
character in "Charlie Wilson's War," a movie starring Oscar winners
Tom Hanks as Wilson, Julia Roberts as a connected Houston socialite
and Philip Seymour Hoffman as a shadowy CIA agent. The film, directed
by Mike Nichols, is nearly wrapped up for release on Christmas Day.

[...]

Different women in Wilson's world are at center stage in the movie.
One is Texas socialite Joanne Herring, played by Roberts, who
channeled Wilson's anti-Soviet energy.

But the audacity of Wilson taking his own belly dancer to Egypt to
perform for the minister of defense stands out.

That belly dancer, Carol Shannon, beguiled Wilson when he first saw
her dance at a Fort Worth, Texas, hotel.

"You don't expect to find really professional belly dancing in Fort
Worth," said Wilson, who recalled attending a political function and
going to a happy hour where Shannon was entertaining.

Wilson, something of a connoisseur of belly dancing, said, "I was
stunned that she was so good." Wilson and Shannon, both divorced, soon
started a yearlong romance that took her to Egypt, Israel, Pakistan
and the Khyber Pass.

Shannon's dancing in Egypt helped win over the defense minister, who
sold Wilson the arms he sought.

But filling Shannon's small but colorful role in the movie has been a
problem.

Nichols, according to Wilson and Shannon, wasn't happy with the
dancing scenes shot with Prince's ex-wife, Mayte Garcia, as Shannon,
so he's looking to re-shoot with another actress.

"That's a big scene in the movie," said Wilson, who visited the movie
sets in Morocco and California over the past year. He said the problem
has been finding a dancer as "exciting" as Shannon.

"Carol was spectacular," he said.

Latin singing diva Shakira, known for her swiveling hips, was
considered but couldn't work it into her schedule, Wilson said.
Nichols told Shannon that another prospect is Fergie, the pop star,
who has a background as a television and movie actress.

"I told Mike he needs to see me dance," said Shannon, who now works as
a flight attendant for Southwest Airlines but still performs
occasionally. She and a daughter, Shelley Leo, visited a California
set last year and met Hanks and Nichols.

Shannon, 66, hopes to teach her moves to whoever gets the role.

"I would love to be able to work with the woman who is going to play
me. I feel every woman has a little belly dancer inside of her,"
Shannon said during a layover in Tampa, Fla. "It lets you get your
free spirit out."
