The tourist marked the first collaboration between Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp but the bad relationship between the two ended up making it their last. Find out all the details below.
When The Tourist premiered in 2010, audiences were very excited to see Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp together on screen. The thriller and romance film was directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck and follows Frank (Depp), an American tourist who travels to Italy to recover from a failed love affair. On board a train, he meets Elise (Jolie), a mysterious woman with whom he falls in love, but who quickly leads him into a dangerous chase.
Before its release, the film had generated a lot of expectations, as everyone wanted to finally see these two famous actors together. Furthermore, its premise made it extremely interesting, so when it was released, it became a box-office success, despite negative comments from critics.
And although Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp formed a very seductive and captivating duo, the truth is that the chemistry did not manage to transfer to the screen, since it is rumored that the performers had a bad relationship during the filming of the film. This surprised many people because, at the same time, there were rumors that the actors had even fallen in love.
Still, the true story seems to have been more bitter, since Angelina and Johnny hardly developed a relationship while filming The Tourist. Apparently, the performers did not get along and Angelina tolerated the actor less and less. “The chemistry between the two was supposed to fly through the air, but they are not getting along,” revealed a source close to the production.
Furthermore, everything indicates that the feeling was mutual since apparently the Pirates of the Caribbean actor could not tolerate his co-star either, which led him to seclude himself in his dressing room until he was needed to continue filming more scenes. “He thinks she is very conceited,” added the same source.
The truth is that after the premiere of The Tourist, Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp proved to be very professional, as they did not hesitate to pose together and participate in different interviews together. In addition, they praised each other several times, something that led us to wonder if the rumors of a bad relationship were real or, in fact, just rumors.
Even so, this film marked the last project of both, as Angelina dedicated herself to exploring other areas in the world of cinema, while Johnny's career began to decline due to all the controversies that surrounded him. Currently, the 59-year-old performer is looking to fix his image while he slowly returns to the screen.
