Filming began over a year ago on Bryan Singer’s next movie, his WW-II thriller Valkyrie but he hasn’t finished shooting everything he wanted just yet.

Variety’s Peter Bart has informed us on his blog that Tom Cruise has donned his eye patch once more and returned to film three extra days of shooting. No word on why there was a delay…

Cruise will be shooting three scenes in North Africa within the next three weeks. In one, his character, Col. Claus Von Stauffenberg, is badly injured but survives, a key moment in the film’s first act.

Bart goes on to tell us that people he trusts who have seen Valkyrie in it’s current form claim it’s “a superb thriller”.

He also notes that Cruise is adamant on releasing the movie through his U.A. on Friday 13th February 2009.
