Tom Cruise Goes Bowling With ‘Rock Of Ages’ Cast

The ‘midway’ wrap party for the film Rock of Ages was held at Lucky Strikes Bowling in Miami on Sunday and Tom Cruise came to celebrate with his coworkers.

Cruise, 49, plays the aging rocker Stacee Jaxx in the musical film and costar Malin Akerman says Tom’s voice was incredible.

“You will be shocked,” she said. “I kind of wasn’t that surprised, because when Tom does something he does it 150 percent. So he really just brought his f*****g game and he sounds like a rock star. I’m not kidding. He could be an opera singer if he wanted to. His voice is really powerful.”

Cruise and Akerman are part of a huge, all-star cast including Russell Brand, Bryan Cranston, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Alec Baldwin.

The film, directed by Adam Shankman, will be in theaters June 2012.

Awesome trailer, this is great for fans of the series, it feels fresh and loaded with the kinds of elements we love. I had forgotten that this was coming out this December, this was a pleasant surprise! Keep in mind this is just the teaser trailer, hopefully the full trailer is even better!

First Look: Shirtless Long Haired Tom Cruise in ‘Rock of Ages’ (Image)

Here’s the first image released for the upcoming movie Rock of Ages starring Tom Cruise. (Full image below)

He looks like a crazy rocker, Tom Cruise always takes his roles with passion. He looks almost younger in this picture than he did in the last two or three movies he did. It’s probably because most rockers are more physically run down than he looks in this movie. Rock of Ages will be in theaters on June 1st, 2012.

Tom Cruise May Get ‘One Shot’

Tom Cruise is in negotiations to play Jack Reacher in the upcoming book-to-movie adaptation One Shot.

Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions are negotiating with Tom Cruise to star this fall in One Shot, a thriller based on the Lee Child book series about former military policeman-turned-drifter Jack Reacher. Christopher McQuarrie will direct his script.

This project is something Cruise has been wanting to do for years so it’s just a matter of time. Unfortunately for fans of the books Tom Cruise doesn’t exactly fit the description of Jack Reacher who is about 6’5″ 250 pounds. Cruise is certainly good at action though and I’m sure he’ll absorb the essence of this character quite well.

Tom Cruise Goes ‘Super 8′ In LA

Tom Cruise walked the black carpet for the premiere of Super 8 at the Regency Village Theater in Los Angeles.

The 49 year-old actor was dressed casually in dark jeans and black shirt and hung with the flick’s director, J.J. Abrams who is also his Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol producer and screenwriter.

Cruise met up with Super 8 star Elle Fanning, the younger sister of Dakota. Cruise and Dakota teamed up for War of the Worlds with Steven Spielberg, also at the premiere.

Cruise, who’s been filming Rock of Ages in Miami, has signed on to star in Oblivion, the next project from director Joseph Kosinski of TRON: Legacy.

Photos of Tom and J.J. are below. (Read the article)

Tom Cruise to Star in ‘Oblivion’

Tom Cruise is officially starring in the upcoming big budget sci-fi movie Oblivion.

It takes place in an apocalyptic future where most of the population lives in clouds above an earth surface that has been rendered uninhabitable. Cruise will play a soldier who’s stuck alone on the planet, repairing the drones that patrol and destroy a savage alien life form. He encounters a beautiful woman who crashes in a craft, and their experience together forces him to question his world view. Disney allowed Kosinski to shop it because it didn’t fit its family-film mold and attempts to rein it in to a PG rating was creatively strangling the project. It will be PG-13.

This graphic novel based film sounds like it has a lot of potential to be good! They’ve hired the same director from Tron Legacy which I found pretty boring. I’m not too excited about that factor but hopefully it has a great and compelling script. I’m glad Cruise is taking on a sci-fi role again, he was great in Minority Report! I’ll keep you posted as details on this movie surface.

‘Top Gun’ Jetting Back to Theaters!

Top Gun is set to return to AMC theaters to celebrate it’s 25th anniversary!

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of singlehandedly winning the Cold War, Top Gun will make a victory buzz of the towers at select AMC theaters on Saturday, April 30 at 12:30 p.m. and another on Monday, May 2 at 7 p.m.

Here’s the special re-release trailer:

It’s been years since I’ve watched this movie, but I’m not going to be rushing out to pay for it. It’s obviously only going to have a couple of showings per theater because they know it will only sell to the true fans, or those who have still never seen it. 25th anniversary? I’m starting to feel old, I’m just glad it’s not a remake announcement! I get the feeling these few showings are going to do very well.

With his reputation in tatters, the pol retreats to his hometown to lick his wounds, repair relationships and confront his past.

This movie is still in early, early development so this is just basic info. Cruise definitely seems like a good fit for the part, he’s not too far off the character in real life. I’ll keep you posted as this story develops.
