Alejandro G. Iñàrritu’s movie with Tom Cruise has assembled a murderers’ row cast. The four-time Oscar-winning filmmaker’s untitled movie for Warner Bros and Legendary Entertainment counts Oscar-nominated Anatomy of a Fall actress Sandra Hüller, Emmy winner John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Oscar nominee Jesse Plemons and Talk to Me actress Sophie Wilde. Oscar winner Riz Ahmed is in final negotiations to join the cast.
Deadline first told you back in February that Cruise was starring and he’s also producing the latest feature project from The Revenant and Birdman filmmaker. The Mission: Impossible franchise star, you’ll remember, has a strategic movie partnership at the Burbank lot.
Iñàrritu co-wrote the 2023 screenplay with Sabina Berman, Alexander Dinelaris and Nicolas Giacobone. The logline as we know it centers on the most powerful man in the world, who embarks on a frantic mission to prove he is humanity’s savior before the disaster he’s unleashed destroys everything.
