Tom Cruise Spotted Enjoying A ‘Cinema Date’ With Ana de Armas

Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas, who previously dated Ben Affleck, continue to fuel speculation of a blossoming romance after being spotted together during a casual cinema outing.

The actors have been linked in recent months after being seen on a number of occasions together, including getting dinner on Valentine’s Day.

As of now, neither Tom Cruise nor Ana de Armas has confirmed whether they are romantically involved, though some reports suggest their recent outings may be related to a movie project they are working on.

Cruise and de Armas’ recent sighting has fueled the growing rumors that they are in a relationship.

The duo was reportedly spotted by a fan at a cinema in Leicester Square, who seemed to have run into them during a film session for Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners.”

“What a dayyyyy! Watched the best movie of the year (6 sinnersmovie – the hype is real, go watch it,” the fan shared on social media. “Walked out of the toilet to come face to face with @tomcruise and Ana de Armas.”

Adding to his post, the fan shared a picture he took with the smiling “Mission: Impossible” star. Surprisingly, de Armas was not in the picture.

Later on, Cruise himself confirmed his appearance at the cinema by sharing a snap of himself in front of the movie’s poster. He also added a caption praising the cast and crew of the film.

“Congratulations Ryan [Coogler], Michael [B. Jordan], and to the entire cast and crew. Must see in a cinema and stay through the end credits,” the actor wrote in his post, which de Armas later liked.

Cruise and de Armas have been spotted together in recent weeks, arriving in London via helicopter.

For the previous sighting, the duo was reportedly returning from Madrid, Spain, although the reason they were there was undisclosed.

De Armas donned a casual outfit and held on to her canines, Elvis and Salsa, while Cruise opted for semi-formal attire.

Last month, they were also seen together twice at Battersea Heliport in London. On one of those occasions, they were joined by director Doug Liman, with whom they appear to be working on a project.

Both actors also smiled and engaged heartily with the heliport staff as they made their way down the tarmac.

Fans first started speculating that Cruise and de Armas were more than just friends when the duo were spotted grabbing dinner in Soho, London.

The day in question was reportedly Valentine’s Day, which, unsurprisingly, made many people think it wasn’t just a friendly outing.

At the restaurant, they were surrounded by several excited fans who were thrilled to see them. At one point, Cruise stopped for a selfie and interacted with fans as more people gathered around to catch a glimpse of him.

Following the fan interaction, Cruise and de Armas left the scene with two bags of takeaway food and hopped into a taxi together to an undisclosed destination.

Any continued sighting of the duo together will only further fuel romance rumors. Still, sources close to them had previously claimed that they are not romantically involved, contrary to what these sightings might suggest.

“Everything with Tom and Ana is innocent. They are hanging out to talk about future movies that they could do together,” a source told the Daily Mail at the time. “One of those ideas is the ‘Days of Thunder’ sequel that Tom wants to get off the ground. It is currently in its infancy.”

They added, “He’s talking [to Paramount] about and It’s going to be what comes together first in terms of a script. It depends on the idea and, ultimately, the script.”

“Days of Thunder” is a 1990 sports action drama featuring Cruise as young USAC racer Cole Trickle.

It grossed $157 million worldwide against a production budget of $60 million but was panned for its lack of originality by critics.

Like Cruise, who has had high-profile relationships with famous women, such as his ex-wives, Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman, De Armas has also been romantically linked to several notable public figures.

In December, during an outing in Madrid, she was seen kissing Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez of Cuba.

The actress previously dated her “Deep Water” co-star, Ben Affleck, after first being linked in early 2020 while filming the thriller in New Orleans. However, they ended their relationship in January 2021.

“Ben is no longer dating Ana,” a source told PeopleMagazine at the time. “She broke it off. Their relationship was complicated. Ana doesn’t want to be based in Los Angeles and Ben obviously has to since his kids live in Los Angeles.”
