Charlize Theron was originally cast for the lead female role in The Tourist but passed and so in stepped Angeina Jolie who is currently filming the movie in Venice.
The film is about a tourist used by an Interpol agent to try and find a criminal.
Miss Jolie will play the interpol agent with Johnny Depp playing the tourist.
The film is being directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck which is difficult to type but even more of a mouthful to say.
Donnersmarck previously directed Dobermann and The Lives Of others.
Julian Fellowes, Jeffrey Nachmanoff, Jerome Salle and Christopher McQuarrie have written the screenplay with William Wheeler working on revisions.
Fellowes previously wrote Gosford Park and Vanity Fair while McQuarrie wrote Valkyrie and The Usual Suspects and also directed The Way Of The Gun.
Cinematography is by John Seale who has worked on many films including Witness, Gorilla's In The Mist, Rain Man, Dead Poets Society, The Perfect Storm and Cold Mountain and he also won an Oscar for The English Patient so i expect a beautiful looking movie if nothing else.
Johnny Depp is a busy guy as he is also preparing to set sail again as Jack Sparrow in Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Angelina Jolie will be seen this year in the spy thriller Salt.
The Tourist is one to watch out for and i think it should be pretty good with such talent involved and it's coming to a cinema near you in 2011.
