Is the new movie, Valkyrie, starring Tom Cruise, only in english?

Wait, so the new movie, Valkyrie, starring Tom Cruise, that is based on the assassination attempt on Hitler, is in English. Shouldn't it technically be in German and shouldn't Tom Cruise be speaking German???Is the new movie, Valkyrie, starring Tom Cruise, only in english?
I do believe it is only English - even though filmed in Germany.

Ehrm... what about all the other movies the big studios from the US made about Germany and that period of time? What about Schindler's list? Shouldn't they all have been speaking German, too? Have you ever researched any of those movies and realized how many of them are actually remakes of films from European studios, the story adapted to better fit what the US is used to thinking about Europe? Ever heard of the movie "Der Untergang", which is one of the few movies that where not re-shot for the US market, but instead translated? Any idea what a discussion went on about "German film-makers making such a movie"? Any idea what a bashing those poor film-makers got, especially from their international colleagues?



What a question to ask, honestly. Why not browse the "international movie" section of your local video-renting place for a little before asking something like this!Is the new movie, Valkyrie, starring Tom Cruise, only in english?
Technically, But, i'm pretty sure that Tom Cruise doesn't speak German.
idk but it looks cool
