Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes

Since marrying Tom Cruise and becoming a mum, former Dawson's Creek star Katie Holmes, 28, hasn't been sent any movie scripts that take her fancy.

So her 45-year-old husband's offering to produce her projects.

'Kate is a little disillusioned with acting at the moment, especially as she's taken to being a mother so wholeheartedly,' a source tells The Daily Express.

'She's not interested by many of the roles she is being offered so Tom has stepped in with some ideas of his own.'

The Mission Impossible star believes audiences will be wowed if the couple collaborate on-screen.

'He has one project he wants both of them to star in and another he will produce with Katie in the lead,' says the source.

'He wants to build a whole production company around her.'
