Settlement isn't an indication that both parties were unsure of the outcome of the trial; trials are never certain things.
Settlement is the most common way civil litigation disputes are resolved. Trials are the anomaly.
In this case, both parties likely recognized that getting into a knife fight about documentary production in a high-stakes race-to-market matter was likely in Cruise's favor, not theirs.
