Tom Cruise saw people popping off about how he eats movie popcorn
Tom Cruise appears to give things his all, which includes eating popcorn.
A video shared on social media of the star enthusiastically throwing movie popcorn into his mouth at a screening of his latest film, 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning,' has sparked some reaction.
Cruise laughed when he was asked about it by Darius Butler during an appearance on 'The Pat McAfee Show' on Wednesday.
'I've never seen anyone eat popcorn this like,' Butler, said. 'Are you actually eating popcorn or are you full of s**t right here, TC? I've got to know.'
It cracked Cruise up.
'Man, I'm eating popcorn,' Cruise said as he laughed. 'They know when I'm going to these movies that I'm watching, I'm eating popcorn.'
Cruise's love of popcorn has been well documented over the years.
A 2023 promotional video for 'Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1' also featured Cruise with a bucket of the movie snack.
Four cities. Four screenings. We had so much fun at the first fan screenings for Mission: Impossible! Thank you to everyone who came out. pic.twitter.com/qneMmdj00J 'I love my popcorn,' he says in the video. 'Movies. Popcorn.'
Writer and podcaster Rachel Leishman wrote about an exchange she had with Cruise at a recent screening.
'I'll use this time to talk about the absolutely insane information Tom Cruise gave in his pre-screening speech,' Leishman wrote. 'First, he asked us all not once but twice if we had popcorn (I showed him my bucket to confirm) and then he goes 'I normally eat two big buckets myself during a movie'
She did not, however, reveal whether he orders his with extra butter.
'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' is in theaters Friday.

Ana de Armas calls Tom Cruise's praise of her work 'surreal' as dating rumors intensify
Print Close By Brie Stimson Published June 05, 2025 Ana de Armas says it's "amazing" to be working with Tom Cruise and "surreal" that the movie star would praise her work. "It's very special," de Armas told Access Hollywood at the premiere of her John Wick movie "Ballerina" on Tuesday when asked about him raving about her role in the film.

Prime Video just added this underrated post-apocalyptic Tom Cruise sci-fi movie — and it's rocketed straight to No. 1
Tom Cruise isn't just entertaining moviegoers with "Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning" right now — one of his earlier projects is grabbing Prime Video subscribers' attention, too. Joseph Kosinski's glossy 2013 sci-fi movie "Oblivion" was one of many new movies added to the Amazon streaming service this month, and it's rocketed straight to the No. 1 spot on the platform. While the movie wasn't a critical darling, and Kosinski might now be better known for being behind the camera on "Top Gun: Maverick," this sci-fi effort (adapted from his own unpublished graphic novel) is a solid watch. If you'd spied "Oblivion" at the top of Prime Video's charts and were considering adding it to your watchlist, here's a little more info about the film, and a round-up of reactions to help you make your mind up. "Oblivion" whisks us forward in time to 2077 and introduces us to repairman Jack Harper (Tom Cruise), who is seeing out his last few working days on an abandoned planet Earth that was devastated after a war with aliens known as "Scavengers." He and his comms officer, Victoria, are due to relocate to a human colony very soon, though his world is turned upside down when he rescues a woman from a crashed spacecraft. This single act sets off a chain of events that embroils Jack in a desperate fight for the survival of humanity. In addition to Tom Cruise, "Oblivion" also stars Morgan Freeman, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Melissa Leo, and Zoë Bell. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Critically, "Oblivion" didn't perform amazingly well. It's "Rotten" on review aggregator site, Rotten Tomatoes, with a 53% critics rating and a consensus that reads: "visually striking but thinly scripted, "Oblivion" benefits from its strong production values and an excellent performance from Tom Cruise." Reviewing for Variety, Justin Chang called "Oblivion" a "striking, visually resplendent adventure" and a "moderately clever dystopian mindbender"... even if he found fault with the narrative as it plays out. Empire's Olly Richards similarly offered a 3/5 star review, writing, "Kosinski has again built a fantasy world that feels real to its core, but once more put most effort into the scenery and too little into the people." At Rolling Stone, however, critic Peter Travers offered a 2-star rating. Even though he highlights the score, the visuals and Cruise, Travers called the movie "a fantasy without an original thought in its sleek, empty head", concluding that "Oblivion" feels arid and antiseptic, untouched by human hands." In my eyes, though? "Oblivion" is an underrated Tom Cruise sci-fi watch. I wouldn't rank it as highly as I do Cruise's other sci-fi movie of the era, "Edge of Tomorrow," but I would nevertheless recommend giving "Oblivion" a chance. Critics are right to point out that its biggest wins are those high production values. The world of "Oblivion" is an impressively realized one that still holds up; the immersive soundtrack is worth celebrating, too. Cruise is on fine form in the action scenes when they come, and, even though the trailer famously makes the mistake of showing a little too much of the story, I think the intrigue and big storybeats that remain make "Oblivion" a compelling (if derivative) enough watch. In other words? Don't be put off by the mixed reception. Not sold on "Oblivion," or already seen it? We can still help you find your next watch.

Peyton Manning reveals status of Bill Belichick for next year's ‘ManningCast'
Bill Belichick's busy schedule won't allow for much time for appearances on podcasts and shows including the 'ManningCast.' The 73-year-old was a recurring guest on the ESPN show for Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli Manning. He also hosted podcasts and appeared on 'The Pat McAfee Show' weekly. Advertisement Of course, Belichick had a lot more free time on his hands as a member of the media before he became the UNC Tar Heels football coach. But the elder Manning confirmed Belichick won't return next season to 97.1 The Fan during a Pro-AM event at the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Ohio. 'He obviously seems busy right now coaching college football, so he won't be back this year. He'll be hard to replace," Manning said. 'I thought his insight was great, but we'll probably go back to kind of rotating guests and having coaches and players. Which I always like their insight. But also the actors and musicians that — you know, the common criteria to be a guest is you got to love football. And Eli and I both love being around people who love football as much as we do. And all different walks of life, right?" Belichick has done a few interviews to help promote his book, 'The Art of Winning,' but they've been overshadowed by the role his girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, has played in them. But now with his focus on building a strong football program in Chapel Hill, he likely won't have time to commit to something the way he did in 2024.
