Published Friday, May 12 2006, 12:22 BST | By Susanna Regan
Mission: Impossible 3 star Tom Cruise is apparently interested in starring in the latest Hollywood comic book adaptation, Iron Man.

The film will follow the story of a billionaire industrialist who is transformed by a super-powered suit, and attempts to ride the streets of crime.

TeenHollywood reports that Cruise is even more enthusiastic about the project after hearing that comic actor Jon Favreau, whose films include The Break-Up , Elf and Daredevil, is already committed to the project.
