Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg just got done shooting Minority Report. Apparently, the actor and director hit it off.
They've both agreed to reteam for Ghost Soldiers, a World War II movie that centers on the Bataan Death March and the survivors subsequent three year imprisonment in a Japanese prisoner camp.
While Tom Cruise has flirted with the military in Top Gun, Taps and A Few Good Men, this will be his first true war movie. Spielberg, on the other hand, is a veritable expert on the affairs of World War II, having directed 1998's Saving Private Ryan and 1993's Schindler's List.
