Tom Cruise’s “Cocktail” to be made into musical

The Tom Cruise movie Cocktail is being turned into a Broadway musical to mark its 20th anniversary. The film's creator Heywood Gould has hinted that he wants Cruise's wife Katie Holmes to replace Elizabeth Shue as the love interest in the storyline.

He told the New York Post: "I’m writing it as we speak. Marty Richards is on board and he's working on the score. It's far too early to talk about casting and we haven't approached anybody yet, but yes, I like Katie Holmes."

The 1998 film was a box office success but it saw Cruise nominated for a Worst Actor Razzie award.
