Tom Cruise celebrates his 61st birthday at Mission Impossible – Dead Reckoning premiere in Sydney

Tom Cruise celebrated his 61st birthday Monday night at the Sydney premiere of Mission Impossible – Dead Reckoning.

The Hollywood superstar encountered many fans holding posters wishing him a happy birthday as he walked the red carpet.

Tom arrived at the premiere two hours early to make sure he met every fan and took photos.

The actor then posed alongside his co-stars before watching a Mission Impossible-themed fireworks display over Darling Harbour.

He looked smart in an all-black ensemble, including a well-tailored suit that fit close to his muscular body.

Tom added a matching shirt, which he wore partially unbuttoned, and leather shoes.

Director Chrisopher McQuarrie surprised Tom with a birthday cake after walking the red carpet.

His co-star Simon Pegg rolled out the cake, a large black square with the film’s title and a falling motorcycle in fondant.

Tom also took to Twitter to share a series of photos from the evening, writing, “It was amazing spending my birthday with fans today. Thanks for coming to the premiere!’

The official trailer for the upcoming Mission: Impossible episode was recently released.

The heartbreaking, fast-paced clip showed plenty of action sequences featuring the Hollywood actor, whose movie Top Gun: Maverick was a huge summer hit of 2022.

He shines next to Pom Klementieff, Hayley Atwell and fan favorite cast member Simon Pegg.

This is Tom’s seventh Mission: Impossible movie and it will be released in Australian theaters on July 8.

Returning to the sequel, Tom’s usual sidekicks are veteran Hollywood names Ving Rhames, Rebecca Ferguson and Vanessa Kirby.
