It looks like Tom Cruise is still considered a serious possibility for the lead in Guillermo Del Toro's At the Mountains of Madness. This has been mentioned on and off for some time now, but MTV recently caught up with Madness producer James Cameron for additional confirmation:

" 'Tom does want to do the picture,' Cameron said of Cruise's continued interest. 'I don't think we have a deal with him yet, but we're hoping to get that closed soon. Guillermo is madly working on a new draft of the script,' he added. 'Hopefully we'll be shooting by June or July.' "

While the picture has not yet received the green light from Universal Pictures, expect to hear much more on this project soon, especially if they are planning for a June or July shooting date.
