Everyone says the movie musical is dead, but don’t tell that to the people who made ‘Rock of Ages,’ the new movie based on the hit stage musical.
This one has an amazing all-star cast, including Alec Baldwin, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Paul Giamatti, Mary J. Blige, Russell Brand, Julianne Hough and many others. And oh yeah, Tom Cruise with long hair and no shirt on.
When Tom Cruise arrived in India on Saturday to promote ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol’ he was greeted enthusiastically by 200 fans.
However, according to reports in the Indian press, the crowd wasn’t in a frenzy because they were in the presence of Hollywood royalty, but rather because the had been paid about three dollars and given a free lunch to cheer Cruise.
This was no movie stunt.
Tom Cruise got to test drive a race car at a track in California this week, where the actor did 24 laps in the Red Bull F1 car. Former driver and 13-time Grand Prix winner David Coulthard instructed the ‘Days of Thunder’ star before he let Cruise take hold of the wheel of the 850-horsepower car, reaching speeds of 181 mph.
