Fanning Wages War with Cruise & Spielberg

Dakota Fanning, one of the busiest young actresses on this planet, will star with Tom Cruise in the Steven Spielberg-directed The War of the Worlds for Paramount Pictures and DreamWorks Pictures.

Variety says that Fanning will portray the daughter of Cruise’s character in the film, which is being fast-tracked to start shooting in November.

In H.G. Well’s 1898 novel, martians land near London, conquering all before them, and ruin the metropolis; the fate of civilization and even of the human race remains in doubt until the very last.

David Koepp wrote the script for “Worlds,” which is on target for a summer 2005 release.
