Tom Cruise in Atlanta for new movie project

Add Tom Cruise to the long list of actors whose projects are bringing them to Atlanta.

"Mena" is on the docket for Mr. Cruise. The plot, per imdb: "A pilot lands work for the CIA and as a drug runner in the deep south during the 1980s."

Sources tell us he got to town a couple of weeks ago, and we hear that after a brief stay at a certain luxury hotel in Buckhead, one of Atlanta's premiere real estate agents placed him in more commodious temporary digs.
