Tom Cruise Wants Jack Reacher "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. The talks going on right now is for Cruise to make the movie before he stars in the Joseph Kosinski-directed Oblivion at Universal, which starts in January. Making a Cruise deal is always tricky, and if the One Shot deal takes awhile to come together, it would happen after Oblivion shoots next year. Paramount will co-finance the film with Skydance Productions, whose principal David Ellison also co-financed Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol . Fans of the Reacher book will have to absorb this development, because Cruise is very different physically from the bruising tough guy who has created mayhem over 15 bestselling novels that have sold 40 million copies. In the books, Reacher is 6'5," about 250 pounds, a

Last July, DreamWorks Animation paraded Will Ferrell, Tina Fey and other members of the “ Megamind ” cast through the convention. This year? Warner’s main studio operation is bringing nothing. Ditto Disney and DreamWorks. The Weinstein Company, a perennial presence, will also sit this one out. Even Marvel Entertainment, whose panel for “ The Avengers ” was a highlight of Comic-Con 2010, is on the fence about whether it will mount a major presentation. Comic-Con, as a growing number of movie marketers are realizing, has turned into a treacherous place. Studios come seeking buzz, but the Comic-Con effect can be more negative than positive.
