Johnny Depp to Replace Sam Worthington in The Tourist

The musical chairs on one high-profile project keep going, as more replacements are under way. According to The Hollywood Reporter, star Sam Worthington and director Florian von Donnersmark have left the film The Tourist, and there are already some top names in line to replace them.

It was reported that Johnny Depp was in negotiations to replace Worthington, while director Alfonso Cuaron is in talks to replace von Donnersmarck. This isn't the first time The Tourist has seen cast and crew replacements. Tom Cruise was originally set to star alongside Charlize Theron with Bharat Nalluri to direct. Angelina Jolie, who took over for Theron, is still attached to star.

It was said that Depp was eager to get another film off the ground soon, and this film, which will begin production early next year, seems an ideal candidate. The film centers on a female Interpol agent who manages to ensnare an American tourist in Paris to help her track down an elusive criminal, who was also her former lover.

The Tourist was released December 10th, 2010 and stars Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Rufus Sewell, Clément Sibony, Timothy Dalton, Julien Baumgartner, Bruno Wolkowitch, François Vincentelli. The film is directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck.
