A fat and bald Tom Cruise in TROPIC THUNDER

I wonder just how much Tom Cruise is getting paid for his cameo in the Ben Stiller directed comedy TROPIC THUNDER…

In the movie he will play an fat and bald studio mogul.

The film follows a group of actors who travel to shoot a B-Movie war picture where the actors themselves are actually forced to become the soldiers they are portraying.

Don’t ask me how that even makes sense, but that’s the plot that we keep hearing. There’s some funny guys in this let me remind you, so maybe it has a chance of being humorous..

Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr, Jack Black, Steve Coogan, Nick Nolte and many cameo’s with rumors suggesting Katie Holmes, Matthew McConaughey and Tobey Maguire along with the confirmed Cruise-meister pictured above.

The last time Cruise cameoed in a movie was AUSTIN POWERS: GOLDMEMBER. No details of how much he earned for that cameo but I’m thinking it was probably a tidy sum…

You have to admit, Tom Cruise was really funny in Goldmember even if he was poking fun at himself. I think whoever came up with that idea was really clever lol. anyways i hope for the upcoming comedy movie, tom cruises’ cameo and others’ are as entertaining and memorable. I do wonder though, why tom cruise would play the role of a fat and bald studio mogul, when he could very well play a spoofed version of himself as an actor. That would probably be better known not to mention would earn him some respect from some of those who don’t like tom cruise that all much.
Anyways, I know there isn’t much of a plot in this movie yet…and doesn’t make sense, but I’m interested. It’s got a good cast I’d say and so I will keep my eyes peeled for more on this.

sounds like a ‘Three Amigos’ remake for the modern day if you ask me

The GoToTheDoghouse website put the paparazzo in the Doghouse today for ruining the surprise! What happened to that old Hollywood magic?

It should be a real killer like basically all movies that tom has a part in. The guy is just good luck to have around.
