Tom Cruise Signs Deal With Warner Bros. to Develop and Produce Original and Franchise Films


Tom Cruise has a new deal with Warner Bros. to develop more franchise movies and original films that will be released theatrically.

It’s a coup for Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy, who took over as co-chairs and CEOs of Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group in 2022, and who have been working to reinvigorate the studio, as well as for David Zaslav, the man who hired them. The actor can make movies at other companies, but the hope is that he will be able to generate the kind of globally appealing blockbusters that could spawn sequels and enhance Warner Bros.’ bottom line. Warner Bros. also gave Cruise his breakout role in “Risky Business,” the teen sex comedy that saw the star memorably rock out to Bob Seger in his underwear.
