Cruise, 48, is set to play fiction metal singer ‘Stacee Jaxx’ and will be singing the Bon Jovi classic ‘Wanted Dead or Alive’ in the film. When asked how the ‘Mission: Impossible’ actor was when it came to singing, Shankman replied that “He’s studying his vocals. He can sing! It’s a miracle.”
‘Rock of Ages’ is set in 1987 on the Sunset Strip, where a small town girl meets a big city rocker in LA’s most famous rock club, and they fall in love to the greatest songs of the ’80s.

Former American Idol contestant and Rock Of Ages leading man Constantine Maroulis, spoke to the Hollywood Reporter about the upcoming Rock of Ages film last week, and what he thinks of the casting news and rumors.
“I think the guy’s amazing, and I think he would just crush it,” he said of Tom Cruise. [Stacee Jaxx] would be a great role for him because he can use all his ability and put it into this character.”
