Tom Cruise and ‘ex’ Hayley Atwell arrive in Rome ahead of Mission: Impossible premiere

Tom Cruise exuded the luster of a movie star as he showed up in Rome this Friday ahead of the premiere of his upcoming film.

Fresh off the resounding triumph of Top Gun: Maverick last year, 60-year-old Tom is now in Italy supporting Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.

Showing off his muscular arms and statuesque torso, he wore a slim-fitting silver polo shirt unbuttoned across his chest.

A few of Tom’s co-stars were also seen in Rome on Friday, including his leading lady and alleged ex Hayley Atwell.

The world premiere will take place in Rome on July 10, just two days before the film’s theatrical release in the United States.

As Tom walked the cobblestones of the Eternal City this week, he treated onlookers to his world-famous megawatt smile.

The Scientologist icon wore his hair tousled and shielded his eyes from the sun with some glossy black shades.

Hayley, meanwhile, was beaming when she was spotted arriving in Italy this Friday to fulfill her professional commitments on the film.

She combed her dark hair into a high bun and wore a stylish navy blue V-neck jumper that matched her jeans perfectly.

She brushed off her white coat in the steamy Mediterranean climate and tossed it over one arm as she pounded the pavement.

Tom and Hayley’s castmate Simon Pegg was also spotted in Rome that day, a casual figure in a boxy olive green T-shirt.

He sported a dazzling platinum blonde dye job that instantly brought back memories of his early career on the sitcom Spaced.

A mainstay of the Mission: Impossible franchise, Simon brightened up his dressy look with a shiny charm necklace.

French actress Pom Klementieff, who plays a character named Paris in the new Mission: Impossible, was also one of the arrivals of the day in the Italian capital.

She draped her toned body in an elegantly fitted floral blouse and shielded her face with a baseball cap and sunglasses.

The new Mission: Impossible had a tumultuous road to the screen, with both filming and release experiencing multiple delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tensions rose to such an extent that audio footage leaked in late 2020 of Tom yelling expletives at crew members, apparently for failing to properly adhere to social distancing protocols.

“No apologies,” he raged. “You can tell it to the people who are losing their homes because our industry is at a standstill. It won’t put food on the table or pay for their college education.”

Rumors circulated in 2021 and 2022 that Tom and Hayley were in a relationship, but they allegedly broke up last summer.

In Venice in April, Hayley became engaged to music producer Ned Wolfgang Kelly, who describes herself as a “down-to-earth, vegetarian Gentile.”
