Mission Crocodile? Tom Cruise ‘wants to recruit Robert Irwin for Scientology’ after meeting at MI premiere: ‘He sees potential’
He is the Hollywood who has served as the figurehead of the Church of Scientology for many years.
And Tom Cruise, 61, is reportedly opening the door for Australia’s hottest young star to join his faith.
According to women’s Day magazine, Tom wants to recruit zookeeper Robert Irwin, 19, into Scientology after meeting him last week at the Sydney premiere of Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One.
Tom is apparently a longtime fan of Robert and sees “massive potential” in the only son of the late “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin.
He was surprised by how much [Robert] resembles his father,” an insider told the magazine on Monday.

“But Tom just isn’t interested in recruiting him into the religion – he wants to work with Rob and thinks he can help his production company break into the TV streaming market,” they added.
The Golden Globe winner reportedly hopes to revive Steve’s show The Crocodile Hunter starring Robert, after watching the program with his adoptive son Connor when he was growing up.
Connor grew up in the Church of Scientology after being adopted in 1995 by Tom and his mother Nicole Kidman.
