Film Trailer Released for New Tom Cruise Movie

The trailer for "Jack Reacher," a movie that was filmed in the Pittsburgh area—including Dormont—over the winter, has been released.

In December, film crews and actors were on set at a Pinehurst Avenue home in Dormont. The movie also filmed in Oakmont, Sewickley and other areas throughout the City of Pittsburgh.

Here is a synopsis of the movie plot, according to the Internet Movie Database:

"In an innocent heartland city, five are shot dead by an expert sniper. The police quickly identify and arrest the culprit, and build a slam-dunk case. But the accused man claims he's innocent and says 'Get Jack Reacher.' Reacher (Tom Cruise) sees the news report and turns up in the city. The defense are immensely relived; but Reacher has come to bury the guy. Shocked at the accused's request, Reacher sets out to confirm for himself the absolute certainty of the man's guilt, but comes up with more than he bargained for."

"Jack Reacher" is expected to be released in theaters on Dec. 21.
