Tom Cruise 'has been a mentor for Ana de Armas'
Tom Cruise has been an "incredible mentor" to Ana de Armas. The 63-year-old actor and Ana, 37, have a "special work relationship" and the actress has "prepped" all summer for their first project together - a supernatural ocean thriller called Deeper. A source told People: "Tom is crazy hardworking and she's very excited to work with him. She calls it an opportunity of a lifetime." Tom and Ana have been romantically linked to each other over recent months. However, an insider has insisted that their relationship is "not romantic" and that they are simply friends and work partners. The source shared: "Tom is an incredible mentor to Ana. She has nothing but amazing things to say about him." Tom is still one of Hollywood's most bankable stars, and he's never lost his passion for filmmaking. The actor recently admitted that he's fulfilling a "life-long dream" by working in the movie business. He told Extra: "It's such a privilege to do what I do. "It's been a life-long dream of mine to be able to do this and to make movies ... I truly, I love it. That is my, I don't know, it's not what I do, it's who I am. "It is my honour to entertain." Tom is willing to put his body on the line in order to make the best movies possible. The actor - who has suffered various injuries during his career, including a broken ankle while shooting 2018's Mission: Impossible - Fallout - explained: "I fly aerobatic airplanes, I fly jets, I fly helicopters, and this took all of our ability and all of our skill to be able find the camera angles to tell this story." Tom needed to be in tip-top physical shape to shoot the Mission: Impossible movies, and he felt particularly proud of the action scenes in Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. He said: "Physically, what I had to do to prepare for this thing was quite extreme, and I can tell you this - whatever people see in the trailer or on TV, it is not even a taste of what they have in store for them when they see this film."

CBS canned ‘The Late Show' over tens of millions in financial losses annually — not Stephen Colbert's politics: sources
CBS brass say they pulled the plug on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' because of its punishing losses — pegged between $40 million and $50 million a year — and claim politics had nothing to do with it, The Post has learned. The 61-year-old host got canned just days after he took a dig at the Tiffany Network over its $16 million settlement with Donald Trump over a controversial '60 Minutes' interview with Kamala Harris as the network's parent Paramount negotiates with the Trump administration regulatory approval for its $8 billion sale to independent studio Skydance. 'I am offended, and I don't know if anything will ever repair my trust in this company,' Colbert said of the truce in his Monday night monologue. 4 Stephen Colbert announces the cancellation Of 'The Late Show.' The Late Show with Stephen Colb 'But just taking a stab at it, I'd say $16 million would help.' 'Gets no advertising' But scathing jokes at the expense of CBS brass wasn't the problem, according to insiders. Instead, the network's bosses could no longer stomach the fact that Colbert has been plagued with an increasingly dire shortage of advertisers. That's despite Colbert's No, 1 ratings in his time slot and his status as a key face for the Tiffany Network. In the end, Paramount's co-CEO George Cheeks decided to kill the show, sources said. 'Colbert gets no advertising and late night is a tough spot,' said a person with direct knowledge of CBS's decision. 'Colbert might be No. 1, but who watches late night TV anymore?' Some Democrats voiced suspicion, citing the host's left-wing leanings and CBS owner Paramount's urgent need to gain an OK from the Trump administration for the merger with Skydance, the Hollywood studio behind the 'Mission: Impossible' franchise. 4 People walk past the Ed Sullivan Theater, where 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' is taped, in New York. AP 'CBS canceled Colbert's show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump — a deal that looks like bribery,' lefty Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote on X. 'America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.' Skydance CEO David Ellison is the son of Donald Trump pal and tech billionaire Larry Ellison. As The Post first reported, CBS just paid $16 million to Trump and has agreed to run millions of dollars more in MAGA-friendly ads to settle the president's lawsuit alleging that '60 Minutes' deceptively edited its 2024 interview with Kamala Harris to make her look better. Trump, meanwhile, celebrated Colbert's canning in a Friday morning post on Truth Social. 'I absolutely love that Colbert got fired,' the president wrote. 4 Stephen Colbert arrives for the Saturday Night Live 50: The Anniversary Special at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York City, U.S., February 16, 2025. REUTERS 'His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!' Fervent denials But despite Ellison's Trump ties, sources said Skydance and its partners at Redbird Capital — the private equity firm that will help run CBS once the deal is cleared — only heard the news of the show's impending cancellation just before it was announced late Thursday. 'Skydance had nothing to do with this,' one person close to the decision said. 'Colbert loses $40 million to $50 million a year, so George Cheeks just decided to pull the plug.' The show's dominance in its time slot belies sharp declines in viewership as younger viewers move away from traditional TV. 'The Late Show' boasts nearly 2 million total viewers and 200,000 viewers in the key 25-24 'demo' — making it No. 1 in its time slot. Nevertheless, that's a sharp decline versus the numbers it racked up in its heyday. The ad data firm Guideline estimates that CBS's late-night shows together drew $220 million in ad revenue in 2024 — just half the $439 million they drew in 2018. RedBird's Jeff Shell, the former head of NBCUniversal who will run the network once the deal is done, has been crunching the numbers and finding that CBS is a 'melting ice cube' with its losses and cost overruns, a source said. 4 The Ed Sullivan Theater, where the 'Late Show' is recorded live, stands in midtown Manhattan on July 18, 2025, in New York City. Getty Images 'Truth-based' turn The plan is to enhance CBS Sports and invest in 'truth-based' news at a network that conservatives have long ripped for its alleged liberal bias. A Paramount spokesman declined to comment and would not deny that massive losses were tied to the show's cancellation. Trump's lawsuit was impeding the approval of the deal by the Trump Federal Communications Commission. The Post has learned that Ellison is now telling people that with the lawsuit settled the Skydance-Paramount deal will get FCC approval by mid-August. While Ellison is predicting imminent regulatory approval, it will come at a cost: FCC chairman Brendan Carr is likely to demand conditions to remedy what he believes is left-wing news bias in programming that violates agency 'public interest' rules that govern local broadcasting as opposed to cable.

Tom Cruise and His 'New Love' Ana de Armas Are Spotted on Yacht
It seems like Ana de Armas and Tom Cruise might be the latest A-listers looking for love. According to pics obtained by the Daily Mail, the Oscar nominees were recently spotted vacationing on a yacht in Menorca, Spain, wearing matching straw fedora hats and getting cozy in conversation. While neither has confirmed the nature of their relationship, an insider opened up about their budding connection with the outlet. 'Tom has been showering Ana with gifts ever since they met. It's his thing—he is thoughtful,' the source said. 'First, it started with her favorite flowers, then books he thought she would want to read because she's an avid reader.' The insider continued, 'The more they got to know each other, the bigger the gifts became. There has been jewelry, like gold bracelets and designer clothing, things like that, things every girl would love. Probably the biggest gift he has given her is being able to go anywhere in the world at a moment's notice. Not many people can do that.' The pair first sparked romance rumors in February, when they were photographed during a dinner outing in London. At the time, another source denied dating rumors, telling People that they were with their agents 'discussing potential collaborations down the line' and 'appeared to have no romantic connection, just friends.' During her From the World of John Wick: Ballerina press tour in May, Ana confirmed that she and Tom had a few projects lined up, telling Good Morning America that they were 'working together on a lot of things.' Tom also pulled up to support Ana at the premiere of Ballerina on June 3, and she expressed her gratitude for the Mission: Impossible star on the red carpet. She said that he's been 'unbelievable' and 'really amazing' at showing up for her, telling Variety, 'But you know what, he supports every movie. He really wants the industry and cinema to go well, and people going to the theaters.' Neither Tom nor Ana has revealed details surrounding their future projects, but for now, it seems that their bond might be purely professional.

I tried hi-viz trick at top tourist spots… I dodged £35 ticket with cheerful nod but poor acting thwarted theatre trip
SOMETIMES the best place to hide is in plain sight. Just look at Oasis fan Advertisement 8 Oasis fan John Spilsbury saw their Manchester gig for free by disguising himself as a litter picker Credit: Facebook 8 Sun man Tom Bryden tests the high-vis jacket theory Credit: Darren Fletcher Put on a high-vis jacket and walk with enough confidence, and you can get in anywhere — or so the theory goes. It might seem odd that making yourself so visible actually makes you invisible. But this reflective piece of clothing might be all you need to walk past security unchallenged. Would it let me sneak into some of London's biggest tourist attractions without paying a penny? Advertisement read more on oasis With a £4 high-vis vest and a broken walkie talkie to add to the illusion, I set off to put it to the test . . . ODEON CINEMA THE Odeon Cinema on Leicester Square hosts many of the big blockbuster premieres. And access to the screens is firmly blocked off by a bunch of guys with seemingly one job, and one job only – to stop me getting in. Would this be Mission: Impossible? 8 The Odeon Cinema on Leicester Square fell for Tom's hi-vis jacket Credit: Darren Fletcher Advertisement I was clueless about the layout and nearly blew my cover by looking confused. Most read in The Sun Oasis kick off first Manchester homecoming gig after 16 years away But one pretend-listen to my walkie talkie and I started to walk like I'd been trying to get into Screen 2 all along. The man on the door was itching to ask for my £18 ticket, but I looked him dead in the eye and gave a firm nod. Not a word was spoken and I was on my way to watch How To Train Your Dragon. Advertisement LONDON ZOO WITH ticket booths, a heavily manned bag check and separate security guards on the other side of the street, it was going to be tough to avoid the £35 fee. Conveniently, though, the guards were wearing the same colour vest I had just put on while crouching behind a car. 8 Tom was able to breeze by the London Zoo ticket booths and straight to the camels Credit: Supplied So all it took was a cheerful nod and I was past the four men on the search station. Advertisement I marched toward the glass-fronted ticket booths, where more workers lay in wait. I pretended to fiddle with my walkie talkie and phone, not even trying to make eye contact. And despite being zoo workers, no one clocked my monkey business. Hi-vis whipped off and I was able to roam the zoo like any other visitor. Advertisement TATE MODERN GENERAL admission to Showing at the moment is a retrospective for flamboyant artist and fashion designer Leigh Bowery. 8 Tom was able to get passed security at the Tate Modern and to the Leigh Bowery exhibition Credit: Supplied But blocking my way in was a gallery worker at the entrance and a slow-walking family rummaging for their tickets. Advertisement As a man clearly here for business not leisure, I tried to appear mildly irritated by the hold-up but too polite to hurry anyone. It worked, because when I got to the front I was ushered in with an air of apology. I certainly enjoyed the exhibition too – not least because I'd avoided the £20 fee.

Advertisement GLOBE THEATRE IT'S all about acting at the Shakespearean theatre, where guided tours cost £27 – and my stage skills were too poor to blag my way in here.
