Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp - The Tourist Updates

The debut poster for Columbia Pictures comedy-drama -thriller "The Tourist" was released this week.
The poster has a close up of Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, and carries the tag line, "It all started when he met a woman,".
The film is was directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck and is a remake of the French film by Anthony Zimmer.



Interestingly, Tom Cruise was once set to play Frank (Johnny Depp's character), but he pulled out, was replaced by Sam Worthington, and then Johnny Depp
You may recall that Cruise was originally supposed to be the lead character in "Salt" and when he pulled out, Angelina took over the role.

Angelina Jolie, Salt and Cleopatra

So just a few weeks before Angelina Jolie's movie "Salt" comes out, the FBI busts 11 alleged Russian spies.
Coincidence?
A PR agents dream?
Are my conspiracy buddies right and Hollywood really IS part of the "Shadow Government"?

Well who really knows, but what I thought may have started out as great PR for the film looks like it may be falling kinda flat as the FBI desperately tries to keep their case from looking like a joke.

After all...Salt isn't a comedy.

Too bad they don't have time for a re-write and work Anna Chapman in.
Oh well.

If you haven't visited the official Salt site yet, here it is...

But even if Salt can't cash in on the retro Cold War feel, Angelina still has several projects in the pipeline.

Of course the next one up is The Tourist with Johnny Depp.
Then she'll be reprising the voice of Master Tigress in the sequel to Kung Fu Panda, titled Kung Fu Panda 2: The Kaboom of Doom.
Following that, she'll start work on Queen of the Nile, Cleopatra: A Life, based on the book by Stacy Schiff, in which Angelina will play Cleopatra.

Angelina Jolie Takes a Break From The Tourist

Even though the tabloids have been saying that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are on the rocks (when haven't they?) Brangelina somehow managed to fly down to Bosnia over the weekend.
I guess the nay-sayers will come out with an explanation for that.
As you probably know, Angelina is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations (she has been since 2001), and she has done a lot of work for them.
But now Brad is going with her.
And Angelina actually took a break from the six kids, and working on "The Tourist" (with Johnny Depp) in Venice, Italy to fly down.
Or is it fly over?
Anyway, Brad and Angelina weren't there for the publicity, because they tried to avoid the spotlight as much as possible.
Well as much as a couple that famous can at least.

And in other news, Columbia Pictures released the full theatrical version movie trailer for Angelina's upcoming film "Salt".
And of course Screamingangie1 has it, and you can see it here:
