Are Tom Cruise & Ana de Armas Hitting Pause? New Setback Sparks Fresh Questions
In February, the two actors sparked dating rumors after being spotted together in London. After that outing, they were together more and more often — Valentine's Day, her birthday, certainly not minor moments. While a People source claimed that Cruise and de Armas were 'just friends,' it was hard for them to shake the dating stories. It got even more difficult when Cruise gushed to Extra about her work in the John Wick spinoff, Ballerina.

LeAnn Rimes Opens up About Her Affair With Eddie Cibrian: 'I Know What I'm Responsible For'
'[Ana is a] very, very talented, great dramatic actress, comedic, tremendous ability, learns quickly,' he praised her.
The duo kept their focus on a movie they hoped to get off the ground together: Deeper. Unfortunately, it looks like the project hit a major snag. According to Puck News, Warner Bros. passed on making the very expensive film. The 63-year-old action star wants a budget of $275 million, but the studio balked at that number. Now, Cruise and his team are scrambling to find another studio to finance his project with de Armas.
Their film might be temporarily derailed, but Us Weekly sources seem to think that a 'low-key' romance is brewing between them. They described it as 'still new and in the early stages' in May. Given Cruise's high profile, 'their romance is definitely on the down low,' per the insider. They also revealed that it was Cruise's ex-girlfriend Penelope Cruz who gently nudged him in a romantic direction.
De Armas didn't offer much to Good Morning America during a visit in May — she kept her answers about Cruise rather vague. 'It's so much fun,' she told the media outlet about their possible film. 'We're definitely working on a lot of things, not just one but a few projects. I'm so excited.'
Well, it's not much, but it was something. Cruise and de Armas appear to have things brewing on the personal and professional front, even with the unexpected business obstacle.Best of SheKnows

Marvel's X-Men director says the new movie will be ‘recognizably different' from the Hugh Jackman franchise
Following the premiere of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, the X-Men are the last major set of characters who have not yet been interested into the Marvel universe. Now that we know Thunderbolts* director Jake Schreier will be helming this new version of the X-Men, though, he's offered some detail on what the movie will look like in an interview with The Playlist. When he was asked if Marvel's take on the characters will be 'recognizably different' from the previous franchise, Schreier said 'yeah, I think that's fair to say,' before joking that there was red sniper dot pointed at his chest. Recommended Videos 'But to be able to explore all of the ideas that are inherent to that rich source material, but also at the scale inherent to the source material, that's like a very rare and fortunate opportunity,' the director continued. 'That's very exciting.' Kevin Feige, the head of Marvel Studios, said during a previous interview that Marvel's take on the characters would be quite different, explaining that they were 'going to make a youth-focused reboot. That may be reflected in mutant castings, and it'll definitely be felt in the tone and perspective of the film.' We don't yet know what the introduction of the X-Men is going to look like in the MCU. What we do know, though, is that Marvel is bringing back much of the cast of the original X-Men franchise for an appearance in Avengers: Doomsday. Whether any of them will have significant roles remains to be seen.

CatVideoFest meows its way back into theaters
If watching cat videos was a sport, Will Braden would be its world champion. Since 2016, Braden has spent his working days combing through thousands of submissions, YouTube videos, and other clips to construct the yearly 'CatVideoFest,' a theaters-only compilation reel of our fuzzy feline friends. As Oscilloscope Pictures gets ready to release this year's reel into nearly 200 theaters beginning Aug. 1, including AFI Silver and Alamo Drafthouse Bryant Street, Braden says that the formula remains simple: cats doing flips, cats making funny noises, cats surprising you in every which way.
