Has Tom Cruise officially become a burden at the box office?
Thursday, November 15, 2007
Tom Cruise's politically-charged 'Lions for Lambs' opened very weakly last weekend, and MSNBC is reporting that industry insiders think his upcoming movie may share the same fate. The MSNBC source claims that Cruise "isn't making money in the theaters anymore, and considering that just about every penny that a movie makes has to go back to the actor, it makes it really tough for any films to make any money."
'Valkyrie,' Cruise's film about a Nazi officer who plots to kill Adolf Hitler, had its trailer leak on the Internet last week, and it has been met with less-than-stellar buzz.
