TOM Cruise has told Entertainment Tonight that he'd be interested in making a movie based on the heroics of pilot Chelsey B Sullenberger.

Perfectly understandable.

It's a great story and the movie might well make a lot of money if done well.

But who could play Sullenberger?

Surely not Tom, who struggles a bit as a German in the new thriller Valkyrie which will be reviewed in the Mail on Friday when it opens.

Nope, he's far too young.

I reckon the man for the job is.... Sling Blade star Billy Bob Thornton.

He could do with a decent role and another movie about planes would certainly complement his appearances in A Simple Plan and Pushing Tin which are two of his best films to date.
