At last, the wait is over. After acquiring several intriguing projects, and spending millions of dollars to rewrite them into perfection, Tom Cruise has decided on his next movie -- and it's "Wichita."

According to Variety, Cruise has decided to pair up with Cameron Diaz for James Mangold's action comedy. Not only does this end Cruise's quest for his next project (and apparently it was a close call between this and Len Wiseman's "Motorcade"), but it's also a happy ending for the troubled "Wichita," a film that has seen directors and stars come and go.
