James McAvoy or Tom Cruise To Climb ‘The Mountains of Madness?’

Paula Patton To Take On A Mission That’s, Well, Impossible

Paula Patton To Take On A Mission That’s, Well, Impossible


Paula Patton has been given a mission, should she choose to accept it. And, apparently, she has, landing the female lead in Mission: Impossible IV, which is now a pseudo-reboot kind of starring Tom Cruise, but also Jeremy Renner. We already have details on the Brad Bird film, which seem to be up to date with all of the recent narrative changes. [Deadline]

Patton, who’s been on the fringes of stardom for the last 5 years (from Hitch to Deja Vu to an impressive turn in Precious), is in good company here. Cruise and J.J. Abrams are working with Paramount on a $140 million budget.

What’s funny about all of this is that although Paramount was apparently looking to stray from depending on Cruise’s star power after the semi-disaster that was Knight and Day, Renner and Patton add about zilch in terms of box office dollars, begging the question: what?

Was Justin Bieber not available?

Are you interested in seeing M:I IV? How much of a difference will Patton and Renner?

[Review] Knight and Day


Knight and Day is fun. That’s it. There’s not much more to it. It runs with the formula we’ve seen countless times and does it well enough to be enjoyable. The main reason why it works though: Tom Cruise. The fact of the matter is, he’s extremely likable and charming. He always has been and hopefully this will get him back on the mainstream’s good side.
