Katie Holmes is soon to have company as she gets ready for her role in Broadway play All My Sons – Tom Cruise and Suri are set to join her in New York.
Despite having recently bought a new pad in Beverly Hills worth $35 million (£17.5 million), the family will be relocating to the Big Apple when the show opens in October.
Producer Eric Falkenstein reveals that getting Katie to commit to the Arthur Miller play took four months because she needed to sort out her personal arrangements.
He reveals: "It took time - about four months - to work out. There were family issues. She and Tom are committed to keeping the family together, so they have to get an apartment here."
He also insists Holmes wasn't hired because of her celebrity name: "Katie's not really a celebrity type. She's done brilliant work in films like Pieces of April and The Ice Storm and is perfect for the role.
"(Her character is) a natural sweetheart who can sniff out phonies; Katie basically has that exact moral fibre."
