Language: English

Knight and Day is a 2010 American action comedy film starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz. The film, directed by James Mangold, was the second on-screen collaboration of Cruise and Diaz, following the 2001 film Vanilla Sky. Diaz plays June Havens, a classic car restorer who unwittingly gets caught up with the eccentric secret agent Roy Miller, played by Cruise, who is on the run from the CIA.

The film's investors offset funding costs by paying Cruise a lower advance fee and providing him a share of revenue only after the financiers were repaid their investment in the production. Filming took place in several locations, mainly in several cities located in Massachusetts, while other scenes were filmed in Spain and parts of Austria.

Knight and Day was released in the United States on June 24, 2010. The film received mixed reviews from film critics. It grossed over $261 million worldwide, recouping its $117 million budget. The film was officially remade in Bollywood with Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif in the lead roles, in a film titled Bang Bang!, which was released on October 2, 2014.
