Alejandro G. Iñárritu ropes in Tom Cruise for new Warner Bros movie

While specifics of the plot remain shrouded in secrecy, whispers abound online about negotiations between Warner Bros. and Legendary to secure this project, as per Deadline reports. Iñárritu’s return to English-language cinema after nearly a decade promises an intriguing cinematic experience, especially with Cruise onboard, known primarily for his adrenaline-pumping roles in films like Top Gun: Maverick and the Mission: Impossible series.

However, what we do know is that Iñárritu has crafted a new original story, drawing select A-listers into confidential meetings. Cruise, eager for his next venture, swiftly secured a meeting with Iñárritu upon learning of the director’s new endeavour. Following their meeting, Cruise eagerly jumped on board.

What does the new movie mean for Tom Cruise and Alejandro Iñárritu?

This venture aligns seamlessly with Cruise’s recent strategic partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav and WB studio heads Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy. The vision: to create original content destined for the grandest screens across the globe.

For Iñárritu, this marks his first major studio endeavour since the monumental success of The Revenant, a movie that not only grossed over USD 500 million worldwide but also clinched him his second consecutive Best Director Oscar (and earned Leonardo DiCaprio his first acting Oscar). 

After a well-deserved hiatus post-Birdman (2014), Iñárritu redirected his focus to his passion project, Bardo, with Netflix. Now, the legend returns, ready to captivate audiences once more.

With Cruise and Iñárritu at the helm, this upcoming collaboration promises an unparalleled cinematic spectacle, one that ignites imaginations and sets hearts racing.
