Jessica Alba and Tom Cruise Team-Up

In a recent press release, Jessica Alba is reported to be set to star in a new horror movie produced by none other than Tom Cruise.

The lovely Ms. Alba is rumored to have signed a $4 million deal with Tom’s company. With low interest loans available, it would not be surprising if Tom borrowed to get the actress signed right away.

The film is called ‘The Eye’ and will be a Hollywood remake of the 2002 Hong Kong film Jian Gui where Allison, to be played by Jessica, receives an eye transplant which allows her to see into the supernatural world.

The horror movie, which will be filmed in Albuquerque, New Mexico, will be produced by Cruise/Wagner productions, according to World Entertainment News Network.

Signing onto this project will make 2007 an even busier year for an already strapped Alba.

She is currently working on a number of movies including the sequels to Sin City and Fantastic Four. Along with these, her new thriller, Awake, which sees her star alongside Hayden Christensen will also be released this year.

It is still unknown whether Tom will be starring in the film alongside Jessica. He has been known to take the lead roles in a number of his productions including the Mission Impossible series, War of the Worlds and Minority Report.

We’ll have to wait and see, but it is difficult to believe that any man would pass up the chance to work side-by-side with Jessica Alba.
