If you follow the production of films you will soon become aware that many changes often take place on the journey from script to celluloid.
But even by those standards, The Tourist has gone through a surprising number of cast and crew members coming and going.
The latest to arrive through the project's revolving door is Johnny Depp, who is now in talks to play the lead role, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Initially, Bharat Nalluri was on board to direct the thriller, with Tom Cruise in the lead. Charlize Theron was set to co-star.
But then Cruise left and Sam Worthington was brought in as a replacement.
After that, Charlize Theron departed and in came Angelina Jolie. Bharat Nalluri dropped out and the studio brought in German director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck.
Following that, Sam Worthington dropped out and von Donnersmarck moved on. Alfonso Cuaron is now heading for the director's chair. »
