Here’s your first look at Tom Cruise as a womanizing rocker in Adam Shankman’s big-screen adaptation of the Tony-nominated Broadway musical, Rock of Ages.

In Rock of Ages, Cruise transforms into Stacee Jaxx, a superstar devotee of hair-band excess.

“His character has elements of Axl Rose, Keith Richards and Bret Michaels,” says director Adam Shankman.

“We did a huge amount of research on what people were going through in this period. I knew a lot of these people because my dad was a music business manager.”

Rock of Ages is set for a June 2012 release.
