Ana de Armas on Tom Cruise Praise: 'Surreal' as Dating Rumors Swirl

In a whirlwind of flashing cameras and Hollywood buzz, Ana de Armas has opened up about the surreal experience of receiving high praise from none other than Tom Cruise. Speaking at the premiere of her latest action-packed flick, Ballerina, de Armas couldn’t hide her excitement when asked about Cruise’s glowing review of her performance. 'It’s very special,' she shared, her voice tinged with awe. 'To have someone like him appreciate my work and to be collaborating now—it’s just amazing.'

Cruise, who caught an early screening of Ballerina before raving about it at the London premiere of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, didn’t hold back. 'It kicks serious butt,' he enthused, promising fans they’re in for a wild ride with the film’s intense, larger-than-life vibe.

But the spotlight isn’t just on their professional chemistry. The duo has set tongues wagging with persistent dating rumors after being spotted together multiple times in London since February. From casual strolls on de Armas’ birthday in April to helicopter rides piloted by Cruise himself, their frequent sightings—often accompanied by smiles and cozy moments—have fueled speculation. Add to that their upcoming joint project, a supernatural thriller titled Deeper, and it’s clear these two are intertwined both on and off the screen. De Armas hinted at intense preparations for the film, teasing that she’s 'training hard for what’s coming.'

While neither has confirmed a romance, their shared appearances at high-profile events and intimate outings—like a birthday walk with de Armas’ dog Elvis in tow—keep the rumor mill spinning. For now, fans are left to wonder if this is just a dynamic partnership or something deeper. One thing’s for sure: with talent and charisma like theirs, the world is watching every move.
