Tom Cruise strikes again

The latest news is that Tom Cruise will be playing the role of IRON MAN... The interesting thing here is that Cruise has long been rumored to be interested in the role, and back in 2004 before Favreau came on board Tom was thought to be a lock for the part. Iron Man never really got going and Cruise’s name fell off the project. But it seems now that Favreau is pushing the thing forward, Cruise is interested again.

Here are a few shots of Tom at the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC in May this year.
