Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes in Brazil

Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes continue their visit to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil with dinner at a sushi restaurant.

Tom and Katie have been having a great time in Brazil while promoting Tom Cruise’s new movie Valkyrie (which seems to be doing so-so in the box office). They arrived on Friday with daughter Suri, have taken helicopter rides, and also enjoyed the food at Sushi Leblon and seemed to be overall really enjoying themselves and their family while staying at the luxurious and legendary hotel Copacabana Palace Hotel

Valkyrie

Valkyrie is a 2008 historical thriller film set in Nazi Germany during World War II that depicts the July 20, 1944 plot by German army officers to assassinate Adolf Hitler. The United Artists film was directed by Bryan Singer and written by Christopher McQuarrie. The film marked a re-teaming of Singer and frequent collaborator McQuarrie, who had also made World War II home movies together as children. When Singer sought a smaller project after completing Superman Returns in 2006, he learned of McQuarrie’s script, which the screenwriter had begun after visiting Berlin and learning of the plot in 2002.

Tom Cruise appears as Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, one of the key plotters. Bill Nighy, Eddie Izzard, Terence Stamp and Tom Wilkinson also feature. Cruise’s casting caused controversy among German politicians and members of von Stauffenberg’s family because of the actor’s practice of Scientology, which is considered a totalitarian organization in the country. German newspapers and filmmakers supported the film to spread global awareness of von Stauffenberg’s plot. The filmmakers initially had difficulty setting up filming locations in Germany due to the controversy, but they were later given leeway to film in locations pertaining to the film’s story, such as Berlin’s historic Bendlerblock. – courtesy of wikipedia
