Tourist Trap

The upcoming spy thriller The Tourist continues to have its share of troubles...

A remake of the 2005 French film Anthony Zimmer, Johnny Depp is in talks to replace Australian actor Sam Worthington says Variety.

Worthington replaced the one time attached Tom Cruise...

Depp would play an American tourist drawn into a web of intrigue by a female Interpol agent (Angelina Jolie who stepped in after Charlize Theron left the pic) who is attempting to locate a criminal who was once her lover.

Jolie remains attached but both Worthington original director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck have left the project over creative differences. Children of Men director Alfonso Cuaron is in talks to replace him.

Julian Fellowes wrote the original script which Christopher McQuarrie and Jeffrey Nachmanoff then polished.

Despite the changes, filming remains scheduled to kick off in February
