Ana de Armas Says She's ‘Obviously' Working With Tom Cruise Amid Dating Rumors
Ana de Armas recently spoke about her equation with Tom Cruise. The pair is working on a new project that includes Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie. Both Liman and McQuarrie have frequently collaborated with Cruise in several action films. McQuarrie is also the writer of Cruise's current film in theaters, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.
Ana de Armas has been often spotted with Tom Cruise in the past few months, but the actress says it is because the duo is working together. In a recent interview with Women's Wear Daily, Armas gushed about the extensive 'training' that she is currently participating in, thanks to the Mission Impossible thespian.
The 37-year-old Oscar-nominated actress revealed, 'Obviously, everyone knows I'm working with Tom Cruise. We're working on something with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie, and those guys are unbelievable at everything they do.'
Armas teased, 'I'm doing crazy training, as you do when you're working with Tom. It's another level that just keeps setting the bar higher and higher.' She further shared, 'But it's so much fun. And we're not only working on that thing that we're training for, but also a couple other things too.'
Additionally, sources close to the celebrities have reportedly said the duo 'appeared to have no romantic connection.' The duo were photographed together in February in London. At the time, a source told PEOPLE they grabbed dinner together along with their agents. The pair spent time 'discussing potential collaborations down the line.'
Meanwhile, Armas is also starring in a John Wick franchise film, Ballerina, which will hit the theaters on June 6, 2025. Aramas plays the role of Eve Macarro, a ballerina who has started an unconventional training following the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma.
As much as Ballerina is an action film, Armas says it is also about the character's emotional journey. The Blonde star explained in her WWD interview, 'As much action as there was on the page, I could see the heart too. The character has such a beautiful journey. The emotionality of the character is so important in the film, I was just like, 'oh, I have to do this.''

Dutch beach beasts find a final resting place in a new exhibition
DELFT, Netherlands (AP) — The famous wind-powered beach beasts have scuttled along the Dutch North Sea coast, into a swanky Miami art show and even onto 'The Simpsons.' Now. they have a final resting place in a Dutch city most famous for 'Girl with a Pearl Earring' painter Johannes Vermeer and blue-painted pottery. The 'bones' of Theo Jansen's 'strandbeesten' — beach animals in Dutch — have taken over a former cable factory in Delft, the small city in the western Netherlands that Jansen has called home for decades. 'During the years, there has been a sort of evolutionary history, you could say. And you could see these animals as sort of natural historical objects,' the 77-year old artist told The Associated Press before the installation's opening. The Strandbeesten Mortuary, as the exhibition is called, follows the various versions of the mobile sculptures since 1990 when Jansen created the first one from plastic pipes and tape. As the animals evolved, Jansen incorporated plastic bottles, wooden planks, cloth and cardboard. The life and death cycle of these famous animals — formed mostly out of PVC pipes — has left behind an impressive fossil record, which is on display at the exhibition. Marloes Koster, who organized the exhibition for Delft's Prinsenhof Museum, said that Jansen's ultimate goal is to create a beast that will live forever. 'He's not there yet, so these are the ones that didn't make it,' she added. The museum is undergoing major renovations, so Koster and her colleagues have been putting together arts and culture events at alternative venues around the city while the building is shut. Born near the North Sea, Jansen grew up captivated by the wind that often hits the Dutch coastline. He harnessed it to allow his animals to 'walk' along the beach. Every year, he creates a new strandbeest and, at the end of the summer, declares the animal dead. 'All summer I do experiments, and in the fall I'm a little bit wiser (about) how these animals should survive in the future,' Jansen said. Many of the visitors to the opening of the exhibition had followed Jansen's work for years and were keen to understand how the strandbeesten had changed over time. 'You see a kind of development in the way he does things. So they start out very simple, and then it gets increasingly complicated. So they evolve,' said Cor Nonhof, a Delft local who had come to see the exhibition with his wife. Even at the opening, Jansen was already keen to return to the beach to work on the latest evolution of his strandbeesten. 'I cannot do anything else,' Jansen said. 'And I am very happy with that.'

Sneak A Peek at THE LIBRARIANS: THE NEXT CHAPTER "And the Memory Crystal"
Are you hooked on The Librarians: The Next Chapter yet? We're only four episodes into the inaugural season, and our rag-tag found family of magic herders has already redeemed a drekavac, defeated a witch, solved a ghost story, and brought Cupid out of retirement. Talk about keeping busy. Next up is 'And the Memory Crystal,' and we've got a sneak peek clip for you! RELATED: Read our recaps of The Librarians: The Next Chapter For those of you not yet on this supernatural party wagon, The Librarians: The Next Chapter is the sequel series to The Librarians series, which spun off from the three The Librarian films starring Noah Wyle. In The Librarians: The Next Chapter, Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan), a Librarian from 1847, inadvertently releases magic across the European continent in 2025 when he attempts to return to his own time. Banded together with a historian, a scientist, and a Guardian, he has six months to fix it. Photograph by Aleksandar Letic The Librarians: The Next Chapter, 'And the Memory Crystal' As teased by the TNT website, in the next adventure, ' the team goes to a college campus with a world-class observatory to discover who is using the Crystal of Dr. John Dee to steal people's memories, in order to own the future.' And — because who doesn't love a deep dive? — Here's the scoop on John Dee's Crystal: John Dee served as Queen Elizabeth I's court astronomer and alchemist. On his advice, England established colonies throughout the New World. He had one of the largest libraries in England (fittingly) and, like Connor (Bluey Robinson), left his comfortable court position to dig deeper into the occult and supernatural. He claimed the angel Uriel gave him his crystal in 1582 and used it for curing diseases, seeing the future, and spiritual communication. RELATED: Dean Devlin Dishes on The Librarians: The Next Chapter 's Magical Homecoming John Dee's story ends tragically, dying alone and impoverished, denied a return to court when James I succeeded Elizabeth I. His burial site is unknown. However, John Dee's Crystal currently resides in the Science Museum Group Collection in London. The Value of Memory In the sneak peek clip below, Vikram gets on a righteous soapbox about what he sees as the modern world's greatest failing — people's dependence on technology. Lysa (Olivia Morris) triggers the tirade by discounting the worth of memories. She postulates that they take up cognitive space in the brain that could be better utilized for something productive. Vikram scolds her, Connor, Charlie (Jessica Green), and all their contemporaries for giving away their humanity to the machines. 'No need to think, to know, to remember ANYTHING!' he chastises, shaking her cell phone at them. RELATED: Olivia Morris Shares How The Librarians: The Next Chapter Hooked Her From Page One He predicts technology will consume everything humankind has ever created. Eventually, it'll even take over human emotions. It's a grand, rousing speech, but it is immediately undercut by a passing student's description of his memory loss. The condition is spreading, and that can't be good. The Librarians: The Next Chapter Season 1 Episode 5, 'And the Memory Crystal,' airs on TNT on Monday, June 16 at 9 pm ET . On Location: The Belgrade Fortress on TNT's THE LIBRARIANS: THE NEXT CHAPTER Diana lives in Vancouver, BC, Canada, where she invests her time and energy in teaching, writing, parenting, and indulging her love of all Trek and a myriad of other fandoms. She is a lifelong fan of smart sci-fi and fantasy media, an upstanding citizen of the United Federation of Planets, and a supporter of AFC Richmond 'til she dies. Her guilty pleasures include female-led procedurals, old-school sitcoms, and Bluey. She teaches, knits, and dreams big. You can also find her writing at The Televixen, Women at Warp, TV Fanatic, and TV Goodness.
