This has been a rumor for a while now. ?Tom-boy has mentioned over the years that his favorite Marvel fella was always Iron Man. ?He still feels the same way. ?Cruise is reportedly working on a film adaptation of the old school comic book hero.

hmm...bit perculiar this one, on the one hand so many big names are being pulled in for marvel films that their good name is in threat of being labelled a massive money snathcer, on the other Tom Cruise seems like a actor of high status who would suit the marvel character of iron man (unlike others i can think of *cough cough Ben Affleck* cough cough) he can do sarcasm well and is a tad wooden, like tony stark. Right now he even has a similar raging mullet like the ironman used to have in the 90's cartoon series
tom cruise became iron man?

i think Tom Cruise would be good for the role of Iron Man. He's got the money like Iron Man, he's got the mustache (actually it's a gotea) but it still looks good, he's a lady's man just like Stark, he doesn't have the built though, he will definitaly have to work on that part. I see no reason why he shouldn't play Iron Man. You could put anybody behind a mask or helmet and tell them to play that hero, but you can't just put anybody to play their alter ego. Tom Cruise has the potential to play both. That's coming from a hardcore Marvel fan.
