Tom Cruise's ex Rebecca De Mornay drops rare comment about their Risky Business love affair
Rebecca De Mornay knew ex-boyfriend Tom Cruise before he became an international superstar and the actress is thrilled with the success he's achieved more than 40 years after they worked together. The actor, 63, who has been traveling around Europe with rumored girlfriend Ana de Armas, 37, was an up-and-coming star when he and De Mornay, 65 starred in the bawdy 1983 comedy Risky Business, which launched both their careers. 'I'm really proud of him,' De Mornay, 65, explained in an interview with Page Six while promoting her new film, Saint Claire. In Risky Business, Cruise starred as a college-bound teen who turns his home into a brothel for a weekend while his parents are away after hooking up with De Mornay's sex worker. As for their career trajectories, the NCIS actress, who dated the Mission Impossible star for three years, compared him to one of his most famous films. 'He's like, "I am 'Top Gun," and that's what America really wanted and so he's fulfilled it,' she told the outlet. 'He is a brilliant, brilliant interpreter of what the zeitgeist is,' the Jessica Jones star said. 'I'm really, really proud of knowing him from when we were in the suburbs of Chicago [filming Risky Business], and knowing what he wanted and where it is now.' 'We started this together and look what he did with it,' she added. As for her own career, De Mornay told The Independent in 2024, 'I had no real plan for what to do next. I knew I didn't want to be typecast as 'the sexy woman', but it was all so difficult to navigate.' She seemed to lose more direction after her mother died three years later. 'I was suddenly kind of orphaned, and everything after that just felt like I was flying by the seat of my pants.' In Saint Claire, De Mornay plays a former actress and the grandmother of Bella Thorne, a young woman who kills sexual predators. 'It's very rare that I read scripts about a female serial killer who's obsessed with Joan of Arc, which I thought was just brilliant,' she explained to Page Six about why she signed on for the role in the independent film. 'I just wanted to be a support to this project,' she explained. She went a little further about her admiration for psychological thriller with The Independent. 'It was guerrilla feminist filmmaking! she exclaimed. The actress is currently starring in the psychological thriller Saint Clare as Bella Thorne's grandmother; Pictured in Burbank, CA in February 2024 'It's experimental. It's hallucinatory. And Clare's not a victim, you know? I love that message, and I love that they chose me to play this archetype of maternal protection.' When she first read the script a few years ago, De Mornay said she didn't see any parallels between current events, including the current scandal over who might be on the purported Jeffrey Epstein client list. 'I never even thought of that,' she admitted, adding, 'It's freaky that that would come into it…Like, I didn't see that coming when I read it.'

Hayley Atwell reveals what it was really like working with 'magnetic' Mission Impossible co-star Tom Cruise after bizarre romance rumours
Hayley Atwell has revealed what it was really like working with her 'magnetic' Mission Impossible co-star Tom Cruise after bizarre romance rumours previously circulated about the pair. The co-stars, who have worked together on the last two Mission: Impossible films, were widely thought to have been romantically involved prior to her relationship with and subsequent engagement to music producer Ned Wolfgang Kelly. The actress, 43, previously played down claims of a former romance with Cruise, admitting he was more like an 'uncle.' Cruise, 62, is now thought to be dating actress Ana de Armas with the pair being pictured together at various times this year. Speaking to HUNGER Magazine Hayley gushed about Tom saying he was a 'very magnetic movie star'. Hayley added that he was 'hard working and dedicated' saying he is the real star behind the Mission Impossible franchise as a whole. Speaking of his movie star quality she sweetly said: 'They don't make them like that anymore and they never will.' She has previously denied a romance with Cruise. 'Why are things being assumed or projected onto me about my relationship with my work colleague and boss?' she told The Independent. 'It's involving people in my actual life, my personal life, who have to be on the receiving end of that. It becomes invasive.' Hayley and Ned have kept their relationship away from the public eye and are rarely pictured together. Also during the HUNGER interview she spoke about becoming a mum in 2024 and filming Mission Impossible as well as continuing her theatre work. She said: 'I was juggling having physical changes in my body, having a child, while also doing a play live, and then going back to a franchise. 'And I think it shows that I have grown enormously as an individual.' Back in May Cruise and Hayley attended the New York premiere of Mission: Impossible 8 - The Final Reckoning where they appeared close. The long-term co-stars shared a moment together after joining cast and crew on the red carpet outside the city's Lincoln Center. Hayley appeared to squeeze Cruise's shoulder as they leaned in for a private exchange during the latest in a series of red carpet premieres that began on May 14 in Cannes. Cruise has been quietly linked in recent months to Cuban-Spanish beauty Ana, 37, with romance buzz first sparked just before Valentine's Day when the pair were spotted enjoying a private dinner. Fuel was added to the fire in April when Ana was seen traveling with Cruise in his private helicopter, with exclusive DailyMail photos capturing the megastar grinning from ear to ear as he flew them into London. And back in May, they stirred the pot even more, with Cruise publicly praised Ana's new film Ballerina, and she teased that the two are working on 'exciting' projects together. He made the comment to reporters at the premiere of Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning in London. 'I saw the movie, it kicks a**,' Cruise said. 'Oh, man, it's right in that tone. It's right in that big world, and you're gonna love it.' Also back in May Hayley revealed the unusual Christmas gift Cruise once gave her, while praising her Mission: Impossible 8 co-star's generosity. Appearing on Heart Radio with Pandora Christie, Hayley opened up about their strong bond and her excitement for their film. Giving a peek into her off-screen bond with the Hollywood star, she shared that he's great when it comes to gift-giving. She said: 'He (Tom) did give my grandmother a lift in a helicopter on Christmas Eve at sunset a few years ago. And that was a great gift that he gave me.' 'Was that just a surprise? Did you know so had you planned it?' Pandora asked. Hayley explained: 'I knew but she didn't. And I took her to this heliport where there's café beside it, she didn't know, and I said, ''oh look there's a helipad out there.'' And she went ''oh you wouldn't get me on a helicopter, oh no, it's very dangerous''. 'And we were just having a cup of tea and then all of a sudden Tom Cruise walks round the corner and goes ''hi.'' 'And my grandma she was just amazing she goes ''hiya'' like she'd known him for years just 'hiya darling, you alright?' and gives him a big hug. 'And he goes ''are ready to go on a helicopter with me?'' and she just went ''yep!'' 'She puts down the walking stick, marches into the helicopter, sits down in the back and takes it all in. 'He was so kind and gentle and explained everything that was happening, what every feeling or sensation was, with a description of every sort of technical aspect of it. It was beautiful and so peaceful. 'And to be in the helicopter with her over London and seeing the city from that view and just seeing the look on her face and knowing that was a huge gift for me, I think. And what it meant for her was just a testament to how generous he is as a man.' 'You've got a friend for life there, you really have,' Pandora said before Hayley simply added: 'Yeah.'

Ana De Armas, 37, wants to become a mother 'soon' but insists decision is 'not just up to her as love is unpredictable' amid romance with Tom Cruise, 63 - after she split from Ben Affleck 'over her desire to have kids'
Ana De Armas has revealed she'd like to become a mother in the near future, but insisted that the decision is not only hers to make, as 'relationships can't be controlled'. The actress, 37, is currently dating Hollywood legend Tom Cruise, 63, and got candid about her desire to have a family one day, while stressing that 'you never know when true love will arrive'. Speaking to Italian publication, F Magazine, Ana said she felt an 'immense protective instinct toward children, because they are defenseless and innocent beings who need adults to feel safe.' But when asked if she wanted to have her own one day, she insisted that it was 'not just up to me, stressing that 'love is unpredictable'. She admitted: 'Yes, I'd like to have children and a family, soon if possible. But it's not just up to me. 'As we know, love is unpredictable; you never know when true love will arrive. Relationships can't be controlled: life isn't a movie.' While she confessed that she often 'surprises' men with her 'pure and wild passion', as many assume her to be an 'innocent creature'. She said: 'Many men have told me I have puppy dog eyes. I give the impression of being a sweet and innocent creature, but then they're surprised, because deep down I'm a real tiger, and pure and wild passion governs my choices. 'The important thing for me is that my life is never dull; I want to live every moment to the fullest.' After starring as a secret agent in the James Bond franchise, Ana recently cemented her action hero status by starring as the titular assassin in John Wick spin-off film, Ballerina. Speaking to the publication about her training for the film, she revealed she'd followed in the footsteps of her Mission: Impossible star boyfriend, by choosing to do as many of her own stunts as possible. Asked about Tom's famous choice to avoid using stunt doubles in his films, Ana acknowledged she was the same way and also enjoyed the adrenaline rush and learning of new skills. She said: I also like to shoot as many action scenes as they let me without stunt doubles, until the situation becomes dangerous, and then I leave it to the professionals: I'm not irresponsible. 'In this film, the moment I enjoyed the most was when I had to fight against a flamethrower with a very powerful water jet. 'I had to prepare myself physically, learning various martial arts, and also practicing with different types of weapons. I learned to fight with everything: nails, kicks in the right places, axes, knives, even ice skate blades. 'I discovered that any object can be transformed into a killing tool. But my favourite, I'd say, is the machete.' Prior her romance with Tom, Ana was in an almost year-long relationship with fellow movie star Ben Affleck, after meeting on the set of their steamy drama, Deep Water. When the couple split in January 2021, it was reported that their breakup was over her desire to have children, with the pair said to be in 'different places' in their lives. Ben, 52, is already the father of three children - Violet, 19, Fin, 16, and Samuel, 12, - with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner. A source told Page Six at the time: 'He would not commit to having more kids. She is in her 30s. It was a deal-breaker.' While another insider close to the couple told the publication: 'Ben is not in a place to start a new family. Both he and Ana have three jobs lined up. His family has, and will continue, to be his focus.' However, Tom is known for his complicated relationship with his estranged daughter Suri, whom he shares with ex wife Katie Holmes. While he is said to have a close bond with his children Connor and Isabella, whom he adopted during his marriage to ex-wife Nicole Kidman, the Jerry Maguire star has all but been exiled from his youngest child's life. Tom has not been pictured with Suri, 19, since 2013 - a rift that reportedly stems in large part from Katie and Suri's decision to cut ties with his controversial Scientology faith. Sources close to the teen said in April 2024 that 'Tom does not exist to her'. 'Suri will not have any contact with her father, despite being 18, and even if he called, she would not answer,' one source told 'He does not exist to Katie or Suri, and his daughter does not want to rely on him for anything. She feels that she has one parent and that is her mother.' Ana was first romantically linked to Tom in February when they were spotted having dinner together in London, just before Valentine's Day. The speculation reached a fever pitch when exclusive DailyMail photos showed the Knives Out star being flown into London by Top Gun actor in his private helicopter in April. The couple appeared to make the trip to spend Ana's 37th birthday together, with fans spotting them taking a romantic stroll through the park that same week. And while neither has confirmed their relationship, both stars have spoken warmly about each other, while on the promotional trail for their films, Ballerina and Mission: Impossible, at the same time. In mid-May, an insider spoke about how Tom is 'super smitten' with the Oscar-nominated actress even though it is still early into their romance. An insider told the Daily Mail: 'Tom makes Ana feel safe and that is very important to her. She was flipped out by the fans and stalkers when living in Venice Beach [Los Angeles] so she moved to a remote part of Vermont. 'She loves being away from the crazy. She has been traveling with Tom to busy cities like London, but he always makes her feel safe because he is thoughtful and he has a ton of security. 'He never puts her at risk, she is completely taken care of when she is in his company.' Friends believe the relationship could last, with our insider pointing to the fact that Ana does 'not like to party', preferring quiet nights at home like her decades-older boyfriend. Though another source stressed that the pair are 'taking it day by day' and that the stunner 'does not give her heart away easy.' They said: 'Ana has a thing for older men and Tom fits the bill of her type. The proof is in the pudding. Being affectionate with someone is not something that Ana would do for a role.'
