James Mangold (“3:10 to Yuma,” “Walk the Line”) directs KNIGHT & DAY from a screenplay he co-wrote with Scott Frank (“Minority Report,” “Out of Sight”). (The writing credit is not final.) The film is produced by Cathy Konrad (“3:10 to Yuma,” “Walk the Line”), Steve Pink (“Grosse Point Blank”) and Todd Garner (“Paul Blart: Mall Cop”). Executive producers are Joe Roth (“The Great Debaters”), E. Bennett Walsh (“Kill Bill”) and Arnon Milchan (“Mr. and Mrs. Smith”).

In KNIGHT & DAY, Cruise and Diaz have a glamorous and sometimes deadly adventure, where nothing and no one – even the now fugitive couple – are what they seem. Amid shifting alliances and unexpected betrayals, they race across the globe, with their survival ultimately hinging on the battle of truth vs. trust. KNIGHT & DAY is now shooting in Massachusetts, and will also film on other locations around the world, including Spain, Austria and the tropics.

Also starring are Peter Sarsgaard (“An Education”) as a federal agent relentlessly pursuing the couple; Viola Davis (“Doubt”) as a CIA director trying to decipher the true purpose of their high-wire activities; Paul Dano (“There Will Be Blood”) as an eccentric genius behind a revolutionary technology; and Olivier Martinez (“Unfaithful”) as a ruthless arms manufacturer. Co-starring are Maggie Grace (“Taken”) and Marc Blucas (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”).

Twentieth Century Fox will release KNIGHT & DAY on Fourth of July weekend (July 2^nd), 2010.
