Tom Cruise is about to be back in action in a mysterious new film set to begin shooting soon. The Mission Impossible actor recently signed a contract deal with Warner Bros. Discovery to star in and produce original and franchise films.

The first Cruise film of the contract, produced and directed by Birdman's Alejandro Gonzlez Irritu, is set to begin filming in the U.K. as early as next month, according to Variety. Irritu co-wrote the script for the film in 2023 with the writers of Birdman, Nicolas Giacobone and Alexander Dinelaris, as well as screenwriter Sabina Berman.

The Canadian comedy was renewed earlier this year for a new 13-part run at public broadcaster CBC and principal photography is now underway in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

Barbie didn't have a spectacular night at the British Academy of Film and Awards, aka the BAFTAs, putting doubt on its chances to win any Academy Awards.

On Sunday, the 77th BAFTAs took place in London, and it came with a bit of a one-sided "Barbenheimer" rematch. Oppenheimer had the most nominations, as it was up for 13 awards, and it also took in the most wins, nabbing seven of those noms. It was a different story with Barbie, which had five separate nominations and did not pick up a single win. Like the Oscars, the film also failed to get nominations for Best Director for Greta Gerwig, though Margot Robbie nabbed a Best Actress nomination. Barbie was also excluded from the Best Film race.
