Dan Fogelman (CARS 2) seems to be the toast of Hollywood at the moment selling his latest UNCOMPLETED script for an undisclosed seven figure sum. Not just that but Tom Cruise has even signed on.
Deadline broke the story where Warner Bros has bought the unwritten script about a disgraced politician:
Tom Cruise [is] attached to play a politician who gets caught in an affair. With his reputation in tatters, the pol retreats to his hometown to lick his wounds, repair relationships and confront his past.
So far the above are the only facts released by the Warner’s at this point but it must be a stinker of a film if five studios got into a bidding war over the script and ponying up $2-3 million and being happy to play Cruise’s bill which is big. In the meanwhile Fogelman has a film out the 2nd September 2011 called CRAZY, STUPID, LOVE, click here for the trailer.
