Tom Cruise is close to committing to star in 20th Century Fox action comedy Wichita.

According to Variety, the 46-year-old has been circling the project since the start of the year and has approved Scott Frank's latest draft of the script.

Cameron Diaz will also star in the film, to be directed by Walk The Line helmer James Mangold.

The story will revolve around a spy romancing a woman who has had terrible luck with men. Cruise and Diaz previously worked together on 2001's Vanilla Sky.

Wichita is expected to open in cinemas next summer.
