Brad Pitt may be lined up to replace Tom Cruise in the next Mission Impossible film, according to a British tabloid. According to their report, after ending their 14-year relationship with Tom, Paramount has now chosen Brad to play the lead in the next “Mission: Impossible” sequel. Tom was recently dropped by Paramount Studios dropped because of his “unacceptable conduct” in public and the lacklustre box office takings of the third film in the franchise.

One industry insider told Britain’s London Light newspaper: “Mission: Impossible IV will not include Tom’s character, agent Ethan Hunt. “They’re considering a brief mention, saying Hunt retired to live a safe life with his new wife. “They’re set on Brad taking over as a gutsy new head operative who puts together his own unique team of specialists.” Read more!

Tom Cruise got slammed last week in Australia, where he was named winner of the “Celebrity Ernie Award” for a so-called sexist comment that award organizers claim he made. Cruise, who was judged to be the winner in the celebrity list, managed to beat all contenders in his category by a past comment about his then-pregnant fiancée Katie Holmes.
“Tom’s comments that they have attributed to him are completely fabricated,” his rep, Arnold Robinson, tells PEOPLE. “Anyone who knows him knows that he is a complete gentleman and would never ever say such a thing. … He has the utmost respect for women.”

The award organizers cited one of Cruise’s comments from earlier this year, before the actress gave birth to Suri: “I’ve got Katie tucked away so no one will get to us until my child is born.” Read more!

Almost three months after the birth of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ daughter, Suri Cruise, who was born at St. John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, Calif., on April 18, has yet to be seen in public, either in person or photographically.
German TV station RTL, taking matters into its own hands, has produced a composite image of what Suri might look like. In May, Cruise reportedly had put out feelers for a family photo shoot, but backed out in the 11th hour before the bidding began, according to US Weekly. Gossip Web site Defamer.com has called the delay “profoundly strange” and upgraded its suspicion from “mystery” to “riddle that would make the Sphinx incontinent.” And TMZ.com, perhaps digging for evidence of Suri’s existence, obtained a copy of the official birth certificate, filed May 8 in Los Angeles.
