Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu’s tentatively titled “Judy,” starring Tom Cruise, started filming/rehearsing in November, and will restart shooting in January. Warner Bros has just dated it for October 2, 2026 release.
Cruise, who plays the lead role, is part of an ensemble cast that includes Sandra Hüller, Riz Ahmed, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jesse Plemons and Sophie Wilde.
Not much is known in terms of plot details, but it’s clear that Cruise is the lead. As far as we’ve learned, Iñàrritu’s film centers “on the most powerful man in the world, who embarks on a frantic mission to prove he is humanity’s savior before the disaster he’s unleashed destroys everything.”
Inarritu co-wrote the script in 2023 with “Birdman” writers Nicolas Giacobone and Alexander Dinelaris, along with Sabina Berman. This will be Cruise’s first film since signing with Warner Bros. Discovery in January. His last project with the studio was 2014’s “Edge of Tomorrow.”
