Phillip Noyce's name has come up a lot recently with talks of a new Jack Ryan film, Edwin A. Salt with Tom Cruise and so on. But since Catch a Fire he hasn'y started work on anything, but it seems the big Aussie is nearing a deal, at least you would think so with how much he has been talked about as of late.

IGN has done a good job collecting the data on this, and it began with Roger Friedman at Fox saying Cruise is no longer in the picture, "and I'm told it's because of money. Apparently, Tom is

Batman Christian Bale is in talks to replace Tom Cruise as the President of the United States.

Cruise has quit Warner Bros. movie 28th Amendment, prompting movie bosses to seek out Bale.

MovieHole.net reports talks between movie executives and Cruise broke down last month and he'll no longer play Ben Cahill in the Phillip Noyce action thriller.

Phillip Noyce is in final negotiations to direct Tom Cruise in Columbia Pictures’ “Edwin A. Salt,” according to Variety.

Written by Kurt Wimmer, the film centers on a CIA agent who’s accused of being a Russian sleeper spy. Cruise is not officially cast at this stage, although he’s been showing interest in the project for a while already.

Cruise was last seen in Robert Redford’s “Lions for Lambs.” He will next star in Bryan Singer’s Wwii drama “Valkyrie,” although he also briefly appears in Ben Stiller’s upcoming action comedy “Tropic Thunder.”

Noyce’s directing credits include “Clear and Present Danger” and “Rabbit-Proof Fence.” His most recent film was “Catch a Fire.”
