Via WaPo:  Snyder Adds New Star to His Lineup: Cruise

Just days after media mogul Sumner M. Redstone cut ties with Tom Cruise for his off-screen conduct, the star has a new backer: Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder.Snyder, partnering with home builder Dwight C. Schar and Six Flags chief executive Mark Shapiro, cut a two-year deal with Cruise’s production company to pay between $3 million and $10 million annually for development and overhead costs in exchange for the opportunity to finance film projects and to profit from any hit movies.

Amusing, as this is the way that Synder has run the Redskins, i.e., looking for high ticket free agents and cast-offs from other teams.
