Poster for Johnny Depp's 'The Tourist'

The first poster for Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck's thriller "The Tourist" is now online, and you can check it out below. In all honesty, it's not exactly an intriguing one-sheet at all. Quite boring, actually.

The film revolves around Frank (Johnny Depp), an American tourist visiting Italy to mend a broken heart. Elise (Angelina Jolie) is an extraordinary woman who deliberately crosses his path. Trouble begins...

"The Tourist" is a remake of France's “Anthony Zimmer," which I really enjoyed. The film opens Dec. 10, 2010. The trailer is definitely more promising than this poster, so check out the preview here.

Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie on 'Tourist' set

All hell is breaking loose in Venice, as Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie are trying to film "The Tourist." Fans, however, are making it hard for the actors and director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck. Some set photos have turned up online at Splash News (as you can see right in the middle of the still above), and while they are certainly not compelling, they give us a good look at Depp and Jolie in character. See above or check out more here.

Von Donnersmarck to direct 'The Tourist'

Von Donnersmarck wins Oscar

Will "The Tourist" ever get made? We've heard quite a lot about the project recently, and yet, it doesn't seem to get off the ground. Until now, because Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck is back to direct.

German filmmaker Von Donnersmarck ("The Lives of Others") was previously attached to the film a while ago, but he left the project because of creative differences. Variety now reports he's back to direct.

Casting issues plagued the film as well, but Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie are now starring in the remake of France's “Anthony Zimmer.” Christopher McQuarrie & Jeffrey Nachmanoff wrote the script.

The film centers on an American tourist (Depp) who faces great danger when a female Interpol agent (Jolie) tricks him into taking out a criminal she once had an affair with. The original film came out in 2005.
