Paramount Move Toward Tom Cruise’s ‘Our Name is Adam’

Looks like another movie project for Tom. Still not confirmed whether Tom is starring on it or just producing.

There’s some great intuition on my part. When, last night, I wrote about Tom Cruise‘s ever-so-recent attachment to a sci-fi project titled Our Name Is Adam, the presence of producer Mary Parent‘s Disruptor Entertainment led me — and, it should be admitted, several others — to think Paramount Pictures would end up distributing.

Lo and behold, Deadline now claim the studio is working to bring T.S. Nowlin‘s screenplay under their command, going so far as to “[do] everything they can to make the numbers work before their first look expires and others get a shot at it.” Taking that into account, expect this one to come together in the very near future.

And, though previously held close to the chest, Deadline claim Our Name Is Adam Adam happens to be — should this be true, the title makes a whole lot more sense — “a Back to the Future-style tale in which Cruise goes back in time and meets his former self.” That’s still not a huge amount to know, but, sure, I can go with that.
