world war 2 aircraftThere are things that you’d never imagine going together in life.

Tom Cruise and John Woo is easily one of them.  But when you consider John Woo’s newest project announcement, a movie about a little known side of World War II, in which the Americans helped the Chinese.  Check out what Woo said in a recent interview:

“It’s based on a true story in WWII, about a group of American volunteer fighter pilots who worked with the Chinese Air Force fighting with the Japanese and they won the war. Also, it’s the story of Clair Chennault, and they did a great contribution for the Chinese, and the Chinese people love and respect them. The whole story is about a friendship between a Chinese and an American and they worked together.”

That’s not something you’d expect to go together either–the Chinese and the Americans.  Especially not lately!  But is this story going to be too obscure for World War II buffs?  Or will it be a shot in the arm for Cruise’s career, currently flagging under a weight of Scientology and insanity?
