Johnny Depp in talks for The Tourist with Angelina Jolie

“The Tourist” is set for a 2011 release date, but it’s still collecting cast members at this point.

The latest word is that Johnny Depp is in talks to sign, replacing Sam Worthington, who replaced Tom Cruise. If it’s a go, Depp will play an American tourist who’s used by an Interpol agent to flush out a criminal with whom she once had an affair.

The agent will be played by Angelina Jolie, which would make for an awesome pairing with Depp. I’m trying to think if they’ve ever done a movie, and nothing comes to mind. If not, it’s time!

Any thoughts on this pairing?
