Katie Holmes' Broadway show hasn't even opened, but The Scoop is already reporting that show is expected to close early because of poor ticket sales.
Ticket sales for the show, which stars Katie Holmes and Patrick Wilson, are thus far “definitely off from what the production hoped,” according to a source close to “Sons.” It’s hard to know what exactly is to blame.
“You can’t say it’s the economy,” says the source, “because there are shows, like ‘Mamma Mia’ that are selling out.” One possibility bandied about is that audiences are too nostalgic for Holmes’ “Dawson’s Creek” persona to clamor for tickets. “It’s not that Katie’s bad in the part. She’s good enough. The producers are just getting the feeling people still want to view Katie as sweet little Joey Potter.”
The publicist for All My Sons denies the claims, but then again he has to say that. Katie Holmes kissed her acting career goodbye when she kissed Tom Cruise.

Matthew McConaughey’s face says it all. After seeing that see clip of the Tom Cruise cameo in Tropic Thunder, TT went from my must see to must miss. WTF there was nothing funny in that 3 minute video, not even seeing a fat bald Cruise could make laugh and his dancing should be a Razzie category of its own.
Tom Cruise's BFF and business partner Paula Wagner is stepping down from her position at United Artists according to Reuters.
"As much as I've enjoyed my time as an executive, I have longed to return to my true love, which is making movies, so that's what I've decided to do," Wagner said in a statement.
Separately, MGM said in a statement there would be no changes to Cruise's involvement with UA, and an MGM spokesman declined to comment beyond that statement.
Yeah right that is why she is stepping down, who believes that PR spin on the story. Lions For Lambs was a huge failure and Valkyrie has had 4 release dates including the one announced today after it was rumored that she was stepping down. Valkyrie which was not expected to hit the big screen until 2009 is back on 2008's calendar for December 26th. That makes it sound like MGM is trying to cut their loses for 2008 like with UA and Tom Cruise's latest failure Valkyrie. Took long enough for MGM to realize why Paramount got rid of Tom Cruise.
Hopefully this is it for Tom Cruise and he will go away with his Stepford Wife.
