Tom Cruise is already the biggest movie star in the world, but recently he seems to have found an additional calling as an ambassador for theatrical screenings. The actor has reason to want to get people into theaters, with his own Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One set to bow next month, but Cruise has been hyping other big summer releases as well, and now the stars of those films are returning the favor.
Recently, Tom Cruise made an Instagram post where he hyped up two films that have nothing to do with him: Barbie, starring Margot Robbie and directed by Greta Gerwig, and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. Both movies are set for release on July 21, a rare case of two major tentpole studio films hitting the same day. Cruise posted pictures of himself, along with Mission: Impossible director Christopher McQuarrie, in front of movie posters for both films, holding tickets to the movies they had apparently purchased.
