Tom and Paula Parting Ways


Paula Wagner, Crazy Cruise's longtime producing partner, seemed to stick with him through a lot. Not anymore.

Wagner announced Wednesday that she is exiting as chief executive of United Artists to produce projects independently.

In a joint statement, she stressed that she will continue to co-own the studio with Cruise and "be attached to UA's most exciting film properties."

Cruise and Wagner were hired to head UA in November 2006. (The same year, Paramount Pictures ended its 14-year relationship with Cruise/Wagner Productions, Cruise's production company, citing his erratic behavior.)

Ok, maybe not a big deal in world events. But I think it is in Hollywoodland.
