Tom Cruise 'sees huge potential in Steve Irwin's son and wants to recruit him to Scientology'

Tom Cruise Steve Irwin Robert Irwin Scientology Mimi Rogers Rorie Buckey

Tom Cruise is reportedly on the hunt for a new Scientology member and sees "huge potential" in zookeeper Robert Irwin.

The unlikely pair met at the Sydney premiere of Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One and it seems Robert has made a lasting impression on the Hollywood actor. A source has said Tom also wants to team up with the 19-year-old for a special TV project.

Tom has served as a figurehead for the Church of Scientology for years, having been recruited by his first wife Mimi Rogers back in 1986.
