NY Premiere of "I Am Legend" Starring Will Smith-December 11, 2007

Will Smith dazzled the red carpet tonight at the premiere of his new movie, "I Am Legend" which is a remake of a fantastic Charlton Heston movie called "The Omega Man." I usually hate remakes, especially when the original was so great but I honestly can't think of anyone better for this role than Will Smith.
Surprising everyone (except Luisa who had a hunch last night) was none other than Tom Cruise.
Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy walked the red carpet too, with a boot on his foot from an accident during a concert. Ron Howard, Ben McKenzie and Mary J Blige were also present.

HAPPY HANUKAH
