Tom Cruise has signed a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery to develop and produce theatrical films. The deal includes a mix of original productions and franchise films, and it is not exclusive, allowing Cruise to work with other studios in the future.
This marks Cruise’s return to Warner Bros. after more than a decade, with the last project being “Edge of Tomorrow” in 2014.
The deal was facilitated by Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group co-chairs and CEOs Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy, with David Zaslav also playing a key role. (Trending: Michelle Obama Admits Being ‘Terrified’ Ahead of 2024)
De Luca and Abdy said in a statement, “We are thrilled to be working with Tom, an absolute legend in the film industry.”
The executives explained, “Our vision, from day one, has been to rebuild this iconic studio to the heights of its glory days, and, in fact, when we first sat down with [Warner Bros. Discovery chief] David Zaslav to talk about joining the Warner Bros. Discovery team, he said to us, ‘We are on a mission to bring Warner Bros. back – we have the best resources, storytelling IP, and talent in the business – and we need to bring Tom Cruise back to Warner Bros!’”
“Today, that becomes a reality and we are one step closer to achieving our ambition. We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Tom back to Warner Bros. and look forward to bringing more of his genius to life on screen in the years ahead,” added the CEOs.
Cruise expressed his admiration for the team at Warner Bros. Discovery and their commitment to the theatrical experience.
