Based on the rock jukebox Broadway musicalRock of Agesby D'Arienzo, the film version sees Cruise play rock musician Stacee Jaxx and perform rock ballads such asDef Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar On Me" andBon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive." Director Adam Shankman said he knew Cruise would work for the role — inspired by Axl Rose, Bret Michaels, Keith Richards and Jim Morrison — after his first voice lesson. "Here's the thing about Tom Cruise: I knew in my heart he would never put himself in harm's way about taking on a part if he didn't think he could deliver," Shankman toldEntertainment Weeklyin 2011. "So it wasn't until our first go around with his voice lesson that we sort of looked at each other and went, 'This is gonna work!' And we were basically dancing around the living room and high-fiving each other because he actually has a fantastic voice." New Line/Kobal/Shutterstock Speaking withThe Hollywood Reporterat the red carpet premiere for the film, theTop Gunstar shared how seriously he took the role, noting "It's not just learning how to sing, I trained for five hours a day for many months." "In singing you have opera, you have pop, you've got Broadway, and then you've got rock. So it was finding out what is that rock voice and then kind of work on the behavior and the wardrobe from that," Cruise added. If the actor does go up for another musical role soon, he has some sage experience to bring along from hisRock of Agesrole. "Singing a song is very much like acting, you're there to tell a story," Cruise said. "And once I kind of figured that it out it was easier." Read the original article onPeople
