Tom Cruise Reuniting With Doug Liman on ‘Scary’ Movie Deeper

Rumors of a Tom Cruise scary movie project have turned out to be true, as director Doug Liman recently confirmed that he and Cruise are working on a horror project, the first in the genre for either.

During a screening of the documentary Gaucho Gaucho last week, Liman spoke to Showbiz 411, where he confirmed that he and Cruise are planning to make a “scary” movie together. He didn’t expand much upon the project, but noted that it would be both he and Cruise’s first time tackling this kind of movie.

“I have never done one,” said Liman. “And neither has Tom Cruise.”

What do we know about Tom Cruise’s scary movie project?

Rumors of a Tom Cruise-led scary movie have been floating around for nearly the entire year. In August, movie insider Daniel Richtman mentioned that the pair were in talks to make the film, with Warner Bros. Discovery producing the project. At the time of the report, the project was known as Deeper, although it’s unknown if the name will stick.

Deeper has been around for nearly a full decade, and was initially a script written by Max Landis. Multiple stars have been attached to the project since, including Idris Elba, Bradley Cooper, and Gal Gadot. The project also had two separate directors, Kornel Mundruczo and Baltasar Kormakur, attached to direct the film at some point.

It’s currently unclear if the film’s script will remain the same, or be changed in any way. No other information about the project is known. Liman and Cruise have worked together several times in their Hollywood careers, most notably on the 2014 sci-fi film Edge of Tomorrow, as well as 2017’s action movie American Made.
