Paramount has preemptively bought an untitled contemporary love story pitch by writer Marc Klein as a starring vehicle for Tom Cruise and set it up with Paramount-based Cruise/Wagner, says Variety.

“We believe Marc Klein has come up with an original and very moving love story,” Cruise/Wagner executive Don Granger told the trade.

Cruise last appeared in War of the Worlds and stars in Mission: Impossible: III, opening on May 5. He hasn’t yet set his next acting gig.
