'Mission: Impossible' star Hayley Atwell said in a recent interview that she sees co-star Tom Cruise like an uncle and slammed the 'invasive' dating rumors.
Tom Cruise re-teams with director-co-writer Christopher McQuarrie in the first of a two-part saga centered around a mysterious threat to human survival.“I would be like, ‘Ooh, there’s some weird rumors, and it feels base, it feels a little dirty, it feels grubby, it’s not what I’m about,’” she said about informing Cruise, 61, of tabloid fodder.
She continued: “It’s involving people in my actual life, my personal life, who have to be on the receiving end of that. It becomes invasive.” Atwell, who is engaged to music producer Ned Wolfgang Kelly, said Cruise offered up some wisdom to cope with tabloid headlines — like any good uncle would. The “Top Gun: Maverick” actor told Atwell that she knows “exactly who you are.”
“‘It doesn’t matter what people think of you, if you are in integrity with yourself,’ if you know what your value system is,” Cruise supposedly told his co-star.Tom Cruise is known for doing his own stunts. And on Day 1 of filming ‘Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning,’ he started with his ‘biggest’ one yet.
Later in the interview, Atwell said she and Cruise agreed their characters had a “sibling thing” that would not hinder Ethan’s romantic tension with Rebecca Ferguson‘s Ilsa Faust, who has been part of the “Mission” franchise since 2015’s “Rogue Nation.”“The audience would not want someone else coming in and going, ‘Oh, excuse me’ — you’d have to earn that,’” Atwell said.
