Please note that the story regarding the cancellation of the Japan
Premiere of War of the Worlds is completely erroneous and the Japan
premiere is still planned.

Steven Spielberg's War of the Worlds starring Tom Cruise will be having its world premiere in Tokyo, Japan on Monday 13 June, Stewart Till, Chairman and CEO of UIP confirmed today in London.

The cancellation mistakenly reported today was simply a change of
venue. UIP Japan had originally planned the world premiere at the Budokhan however then decided sometime ago to relocate to the Virgin Roppongi given its more central and convenient location.

Paul Takaki, President of UIP Japan said today that he is extremely
proud to be hosting the world premiere and looks forward greatly to
welcoming Steven Spielberg, Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning to Japan for this spectacular event on 13 June.

Tom Cruise will continue the promotion of War of the Worlds through
Europe with premieres in Berlin, Marseille, London and Madrid. War of the Worlds opens worldwide on June 29.
