Tom Cruise to play the president in upcoming film

Those of you hoping and praying that Tom Cruise's mentally unbalanced antics would lead to his eventual banishment from Hollywood are going to be sorely disappointed. It seems that Tom's temporary time in the naughty corner is over, and he's back to big budget films again. He's been cast in director Phillip Noyce upcoming film '28th Amendment.'

Never has this become more blindingly clear than in his new film, The 28th Amendment where Tommy plays the President of the United States of America.

President Cruise. Seems eerie when you say it out loud, doesn't it? Tales to frighten children with… 'Did I ever tell you kids about the legend of President Cruise?'
