Tom Cruise’s Mission to Save Himself
Last week, Tom Cruise met with former boss Sumner Redstone of Paramount Pictures, who decided not to renew Tom’s contract in 2006.
According to FoxNews.com, “The fact that Cruise groveled in public with Redstone would indicate that the actor knows just how bad “Valkyrie” is and that he’s trying to shore up his future before the eye patch hits the fan this fall. Certainly, a signed $20 million contract from Paramount would be insurance against this unavoidable disaster destroying his career.”
“More importantly, if Redstone allows Cruise back, he will be returning after the release this fall of “Valkyrie,” in which he plays Col. Claus von Stauffenberg, the real-life would-be assassin of Adolf Hitler, with an eye patch, a withered limb and — according to the $100 million film’s trailer — a California accent reminiscent of Jerry Maguire.”
Valkyrie, directed by Bryan Singer (X-Men, Superman Returns), is set to be released this coming October, and follows Tom’s recent box-office blunder, Lions for Lambs.

Seems like they unleashed a bunch of Koolaid drinker from the slave ship today…and when pray tell has roger friedman been cnosidered stupid other than by scicnetologist..which tells me he is VERY VERY clever adn the first to question the wierdos on holmes dissapearance…
The lunatic needs to get on his medication fast and stop the niacin trips//
tom has so many wonderful fans, i think its great that all of you are showing your love and support for him.
t.i.c.k.s forever!
“California accent”?!$#%#^%$^$#&^&(*)
Oh. Bomb.
#24, when was the last time that Cruise actually sued anybody? Esecially in the past three years where jokes and rumors about the star ran rampant?
This story isn’t true (and Mission: Impossible 3 wasn’t a flop)
Buy. Buy. Buy.
You. Followers.
Buy. The. Fcuking. Tickets.
LOL.
I’m still looking forward to watch Valkyrie, too bad it’s coming till October! And I was thinking it would be before the summer!
So apparently you were away when Morton’s book was first published. The whole TC\Scieno legal machine claimed that they are going to sue the author and whoever publishes or distributes the book.
Also when TC’s lunatic videos first leaked to the internet, didn’t the lawyers at Scieno tried to sue the Gawker? You didn’t remember any of those “rumors”?
Well, good for you.
Go Tom,
Can’t wait to see trophic thunder & valkyrie!!!!
Wow fox news? truly the last bastion of truth and impartiality. I could almost watch it for entertainment if it didnt scare me so much that some people take it at face value. Anyway that was a bit OT! i find it hard to see tom as a character in movies now he’s in the media so much..
Suri is coming!

FREEK….
Hahaha. No one could be more out of the loop than some moron at Fox News. I don’t care how loony he seems, Tom Cruise is easily a bankable star and necessary for Hollywood. Also, Valkyrie looks awesome. Seriously, what a dumb ass.
The only thing that is right in this stupid artcle is the accent thing.
Come on people, a movie about Nazis with Tom Cruise and a bunch of British actors ? They’re not even attempting a German accent for ****’s sake !
Tom’s life is a disaster!!!!
He is bizarre.
Intelligen critical think learn to analyze news from different sources…
I read and watch all kindd of news irrespective of my affilitions, it helps to let you know what others are thinking even if you have different view point,..I detest scientology , yet I read their site to learn more about them
You do yourself a disservice by stikcing your head in the sand and ignoring all media that you disagree with.,.learn to read critically is all..
Amazing, how the same people keep coming back to defend Cruise. He is a complete jackass, who is a major player in a cult that KILLS people and he is certifiably nuts. His defenders are most likely lower tier dumbo Scientologist minions told to scour the web and debunk any bad stuff about their “star”. Your star is now a black hole and your “religion” has been exposed for the cult that it is. Tom Cruise is burnt toast and his “comeback” will happen right after your phony E.T., Xenu comes back to the planet. TOM CRUISE SUCKS AND SO DOES SCIENTOLOGY.

fcuktard!

stupid airhead wife too.
Friedman never says anything nice about anyone in Hollywood.
Lions for Lambs earned big and got its budget back unlike
the rest of the anti war films. BTW Stop Loss flopped too by actor
Ryan Phillippe. Americans dont care for anti war films.
Go Tom Cruise.
FOX NEWS HATES HOLLYWOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
So hilarious because this is bogus. Many actors and insiders as well as critics say Cruise will rock on Tropic Thunder and Valkyrie.
Google Redstone wants to be friends with Tom Cruise and People magazine has the full news of Redstone desperate to be friends with Tom since 2007. Redstone is also dying to patch things up with his daughter also Geffen and Spielberg of Dreamworks.
Read Wall Street Journal, CNN Business and Time magazine not
Gossip by Roger Friedman.
God bless you Tom & your family.
Roger Friedman holds a grudge on Tom and Katie because they will never do an exclusive interview on him which he’s dying to. He kisses a$$ to them in person then backstabs them because his wish was not granted. He disses on People,Vanity Fair,Instyle,Harpers Bazzaar,Diane Sawyer,Larry King, Barbara Walters because Cruise grants them interviews but not him.
Jared, Im really shocked that you plug Roger Friedman when this man insults your idols Brad and Angelina Jolie. This man called Mighty Heart and Brad’s film FLOPS. Same man who contacts another tabloid US weekly aka trash paper and promises the public to keep digging on Heath Ledger’s past and dirt.
Friendman also calls your Brad and Angie bad parents and Bill O’Reilly keeps agreeing with his analysis.
This sleaze is equivalent to the Globe and National enquirer,Jared.
EEEECKKKKKK
And lastly, Jared Friendman and Fox news calls your idols Brangelina mental and unstable because of their United Nations family that keeps growing.
I cant wait for Tom to win the Oscars. He is a good man and extremely talented. Most of all he loves his family and fans.
Ok magazine will showcase many pics of Suri and Tom hanging out together.
Eversince Roger Friedman and Fox made fun of Cruise and said why is he wearing an eyepatch ? goes to show they know nothing about the Germany World War 2 history nor have heard of General Stauffenberg.
Ignorance displayed.
For the latecomers and in need of real news (play catch up since 2007)
Redstone on Tom Cruise ” he wants to be friends with him again”
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20013941,00.html
Redstone not in good terms with his own family and Dreamworks
guys Spielberg and Geffen.

@ miapocca : Sorry, I think you are right. You never said the word “dumb”, I interpreted that way. (On KH thread).
@911, Graf von Stauffenberg was not a general. He was a colonel. And surely, he did not have californian (american) accent! Follow your own advice, read the history of 2nd WW better.
And of course, who does not want to be remembered as the one who tried to kill Hitler (even in virtual)? But do we buy it? Even as hard as TC tried to sell his image as Herr Graf, I still see TC. A try-so-hard-to be a good actor-with-american-accent-speaking-Graf-von-s
Stauffenberg-Wannabee. And I simply can not buy it.
