Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper reportedly dating -- hear the sizzle?

Zoe Saldana? Hottie. Bradley Cooper? Hottie. And if the two are dating, as was reported Wednesday, that's going to be one hot gene pool for us celebrity voyeurs to wade in.

Over the summer, Saldana worked with Cooper, this year's People Sexiest Man Alive, on "The Words," a big-screen thriller expected to open next year.

Last month, the "Avatar" actress and Keith Britton, her entrepreneur beau of 11 years, announced they'd broken off their engagement. Cooper and Rene Zellweger split up in March after less than two years together; there was a gossipy stir in September when he and Jennifer Lopez had dinner together, reportedly to discuss a project.

Cooper and Saldana are "totally dating," an unnamed source told E! News exclusively, earning our love immediately with the passionate use of "totally." According to E!, the two were telling friends they intended to go skiing together in the Rockies over the holidays.

Saldana's rep could not be reached for comment.
