Tom Cruise, from his Oscar nominated role in The Fourth of July to the highly successful Mission Impossible franchise, this Hollywood star continues to shine.

He made his film debut with a small part in Endless Love and from the outset exhibited an undeniable box office appeal to both male and female audiences. Though below average height and not particularly handsome in the traditional sense, within 5 years Tom Cruise was starring in some of the top grossing films of the decade including Top Gun; The Color of Money, Rain Man and Born on the Fourth of July. By the 1990s and 2000s he was one of the highest paid actors in the world earning an average 15 million dollars a picture in such blockbuster hits as Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles, Mission: Impossible, Mission: Impossible II, Mission: Impossible III, Vanilla Sky, Minority Report, The Last Samurai, Collateral, War of the Worlds, and Jerry Maguire - for which he received an Academy Award Nomination for best actor.

In November 2006, Cruise and Paula Wagner announced that they had taken over United Artists film studio. Cruise acts as a producer and star in films for United Artists, while Wagner serves as UA's chief executive. Production began in 2007 of Valkyrie, a thriller based on the July 20, 1944 assassination attempt against Adolf Hitler. The film was acquired in March 2007 by United Artists. On March 21, 2007 Cruise signed on to play Claus von Stauffenberg, the protagonist. This project marks the second production to be greenlighted since Cruise and Wagner took control of United Artists. The first was its inaugural film, Lions for Lambs, directed by Robert Redford and starring Redford, Meryl Streep and Cruise. Lambs was released on November 9, 2007, opening to unimpressive box office revenue and critical reception. In August 2008, Wagner stepped down from her position at United Artists; she retains her stake in UA, which combined with Cruise's share amounts to 30 percent of the studio.

In his latest screen appearance, Tom Cruise worked with Cameron Diaz in Knight and Day. Cameron Diaz's character, June Havens finds her everyday life tangled with that of a secret agent who has realized he isn't supposed to survive his latest mission... The film performed well at the US Box Office breaking past the $200 Million mark.
