Will TOM CRUISE star in a fourth 'Mission: Impossible' movie? The franchise seemed doomed after Viacom/CBS executive chairman and controlling shareholder SUMNER REDSTONE ended a 14-year production relationship with the star and his producing partner, PAULA WAGNER, in August of 2006.
But now, according to the Associated Press, Cruise is in talks with Viacom-owned Paramount Pictures to star in another 'Impossible' installment, and the A-List star was reportedly seen dining with Redstone in Beverly Hills in March.
'Mission: Impossible III' stayed No. 1 in its second weekend, making $24.5 million at the box office.
Action thriller 'Poseidon' couldn't swamp 'M:i:III', coming in second with $20.3 million. The pic stars KURT RUSSELL, JOSH LUCAS and RICHARD DREYFUSS and tells the story of a luxury ocean liner that capsizes at sea when a huge tidal wave smashes into it.
D-day is almost here! 'Mission: Impossible III' opens in theaters nationwide tomorrow, and TOM CRUISE concludes his globe-hopping tour tonight with a fan premiere in Hollywood at the world-famous Grauman's Chinese Theatre!
Tom stormed his way through the Big Apple yesterday in a mega-'M:i:III' blitz, arriving at several different events via helicopter, fire truck, motorcycle, speedboat, subway and sports car -- and ET was with him every step of the way!

And the final part of his whirlwind New York blitz finds Tom at the Ziegfeld Theatre for the Manhattan premiere of the movie!
Paris! Rome! London! After a whirlwind European tour, new dad TOM CRUISE is back from across the Atlantic for the energetic Mexico City premiere of his highly anticipated flick 'Mission: Impossible III' -- and ET was there!
It was last week that Tom jetted off to Rome to kick-start the 'M:i:III' promotional blitz, which was just a week after his bride-to-be KATIE HOLMES gave birth to their baby daughter SURI.
It was nearly one year ago that TOM CRUISE romantically popped the question to fiancée KATIE HOLMES at the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Now, the brand-new proud papa is back in the City of Lights to premiere 'Mission: Impossible III' -- and ET is there for all the action!
Yesterday it was London, and before that it was Rome, and ET's JANN CARL has been with Tom every step of the way. In fact, yesterday Tom insisted that Jann come to Paris with him -- or else!
Yesterday it was Rome -- today it's London! TOM CRUISE's mission to premiere 'M:i:III' around the globe is underway, and ET's JANN CARL is with him every step of the way!

You may remember that it was almost exactly one year ago that Tom and fiancée/new mom KATIE HOLMES chose Rome to first come out to the public as a couple!
The countdown to this summer's biggest movie is slowly ticking down ... 'Mission: Impossible III' explodes into theaters May 5, and ET has an exclusive look at the globe-spanning locations for the most elaborate installment of the blockbuster TOM CRUISE franchise yet. But first, we tell you what the A-lister said on Friday about everything from Scientology to the birth of his baby in his explosive "Primetime" interview with DIANE SAWYER.
"You can be Catholic and be a Scientologist. You can be Jewish and be a Scientologist. But we're just Scientologists," the megastar said about himself and fiancée KATIE HOLMES, also stating that Katie's Catholic parents "absolutely" approve of Scientology.
With the Tomkat baby due any day now, ET continues with "Tomkitten" watch!
Just this past Wednesday, mom-to-be KATIE HOLMES was spotted on a little shopping spree in Beverly Hills at Neiman Marcus -- but there was no word on whether she was buying blue or pink baby goodies! Holmes did look healthy and glowing as she politely smiled at photographers waiting to get some snapshots.
The countdown to this summer's most hotly-awaited flick is on... 'Mission: Impossible III' explodes into theaters May 5, and ET has the latest 411 on the most exciting installment of the blockbuster TOM CRUISE franchise yet!
'Capote' star and newly minted Best Actor Oscar® winner PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN plays the heavy in the movie, and he may be Tom's most formidable nemesis yet!
