Johnny Depp is reportedly in talks to join Angelina Jolie in the thriller The Tourist, according to Variety. Depp would play an American tourist, while Jolie would take on the role of an Interpol agent who involves Depp in her quest to find a criminal who was once her lover. Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, who directed the Oscar-winning The Lives of Others, was attached to direct with Sam Worthington starring, but both reportedly left the project over creative differences. Now Children of Men director Alfonso Cuarón is rumored to be in the running to take the helm. The movie, which is a remake of the 2005 French film Anthony Zimmer, is scheduled to begin production in February. A spokeswoman for Graham King, whose GK Films is producing, told EW that she could not confirm the Depp news.

wow this project seems cursed, next month they will have an all new cast
I’ll reserve any real judgement until I hear more but just from this description this movie looks like a turkey.
Wow, a one-shtick actor and a walking set of boobs & lips. yay. Sign me up.
I like it just for the fact that Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp would be together in the same movie. They seem like a perfect match. One I had never thought of before.
I thought Johnny Depp and Marion Cotillard had really good chemistry and I could see it being the same between Johnny and Angelina at least in terms of ‘looks’.
Oh god no! Don’t do it Johnny!
Johnny Depp is sooooo overhyped!!
that is the mooooooost original thing comment about Depp!
Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, and Alfonso Cuaron sounds awesome. I will, however be devastated if Cuaron leaves.
that’s a great duo.
I want this to happen. I will be the first in line to see the movie.
Johnny Depp in another remake, way to disappoint, at least Burton is not involved in this one
