Hollywood star Tom Cruise's upcoming film with Oscar-winning director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu will open in American theatres on October 2, 2026, studio Warner Bros has announced. The film marks Inarritu's first English-language film since the Leonardo DiCaprio-starrer "The Revenant" in 2015, reported entertainment news outlet Deadline. The untitled project is about the "most powerful man in the world" who embarks on a "frantic mission to prove he is humanity's savior before the disaster he's unleashed destroys everything", according to the official logline.

For the movie, Inarritu is once again collaborating with his "Birdman" co-writers Alexander Dinelaris and Nicolas Giacobone, with Sabina Berman also sharing a screenwriting credit. In addition to Cruise, the movie will feature Sandra Huller, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jesse Plemons, Sophie Wilde and Riz Ahmed. Warner Bros has also announced new release dates for a host of major films, including Matt Reeves' "The Batman 2", which will now open in theatres on October 1, 2027.
