Musical drama from writer of Rock Of Ages picks up a odd mix for its leads

With Jack Reacher hitting cinemas this Winter, it’s only right we honor the crazy stunt-monster himself. Say what you like about his personal life, but Tom Cruise is undeniably a fantastic screen presence. Whether you’re watching him mixing drinks (Cocktail) or drinking drinks (The Last Samurai) or demanding drinks (Tropic Thunder) or getting his eyeballs removed (Minority Report), there’s a jolly good reason for everyone to toast our favourite psychopath!

There’s no denying that the ‘size zero’ culture has taken over the entertainment industry, and there is now an increasingly huge amount of pressure on film and TV stars to conform to Hollywood’s idea of perfection.

Not content with getting us all in a flutter with Top Gun 2 news, our favourite scientologst (and seriously, that’s top of a big list) has set the film world a-flame once again with rumours that he’ll be appearing in musical Rock Of Ages. Singing? Dancing? Presumably platform disco shoes? We’re pretty much in.

After years of being stuck in pre-production, rumour mills and the yarns of old wives, it could be that finally, the Alan Partridge film is actually going to get made.
