Tom Cruise has reportedly been growing closer to Pamela Anderson, with a report claiming the actors are in constant communication, sparking speculations that there may be something more between them.
Cruise has reportedly been taking the lead in their friendly relationship after connecting with her following her “big comeback” performance in “The Last Showgirl.”
On the movie front, Tom Cruise is set to reprise his role as Captain Pete “Maverick” Mitchell in “Top Gun 3” after Paramount announced that it’s in the works.
Cruise and Anderson have sparked relationship rumors as reports suggest they’ve been talking for a long time and growing closer to each other.
According to a report, sources say the “Mission: Impossible” star made the first move by calling her in 2024 to congratulate her for her effort in “The Last Showgirl,” which has earned her praise from all quarters, as well as several award wins and nominations.
“The movie got people to see Pam in a very different light, including Tom,” the source told the news outlet. “They’ve been in touch ever since.”
“There is definitely a spark between them,” the source added. “People have noticed it and mentioned it to Tom.”
Pamela Anderson And Tom Cruise Were Seen Leaving The Same Hotel
Last year, the pair sparked speculations as they were seen in a TikTok video leaving the same hotel in New York City.
Anderson didn’t stop to interact with fans, while Cruise took the time to sign autographs and just say hello to them.
The insider who spoke to the news outlet added that the “Jack Reacher” star is “a very private guy, so until they’re at a place where they want to make this official, Tom will play his cards close to the chest.”
Tom Cruise Always ‘Speaks Highly’ Of Pamela Anderson
Cruise, who counts Mimi Rogers, Nicole Kidman, and Katie Holmes as his exes, reportedly doesn’t “shoot down the idea of dating Pam when people bring it up,” with the source adding that they both share a love for movies.
“She’s a huge cinephile — that’s something they really have bonded over,” the insider said. “They can talk for hours about films and the business.”
“He always speaks highly of her,” they added. “Tom has a ton of respect for Pam.”
Tom Cruise’s ‘Exhausting’ Behavior Affected His Past Romance
Cruise is no newcomer to being linked with some of Hollywood’s top actresses after already getting married to some in the past.
All through last year, he was linked to Ana De Armas after they were pictured together on several dates earlier on.
However, he’s understood to have been the reason that the relationship imploded, as he allegedly wanted to be in control of various aspects of their romance.
At the time, sources told Rob Shuter’s #ShutterScoop that she was “adored” by him, which was evident by all the stops he pulled to go out with her at the time, but she had to step back because he had a controlling behavior.
“He acted like a director, not a boyfriend,” a source said about their romance at the time. “Every dinner, every outfit, every weekend plan — he had notes. It was exhausting.”
Her unease was seemingly compounded by the actor’s request for them to intensify and take things deeper, even when she didn’t feel ready.
“He’s high-octane in everything,” the insider added. “Ana wanted a partner. Tom wanted a production.”
Pamela Anderson Confirmed Her Relationship With Liam Neeson
On her part, Anderson was previously linked to Liam Neeson after they both starred on “The Naked Gun.” The pair grew so close, sparking rumors about the nature of their relationship at the time.
“If you must know, Liam and I were romantically involved for a short while but only after we finished filming,” she told People Magazine in an interview, adding that they later spent an “intimate week” at his home in New York.
“I had my own room,” she said. “Our assistants both came; even family stopped by.”
According to her, they both went to dinner at a tiny French restaurant where he introduced her as the “future Mrs. Neeson.”
She added that she spent time in his garden and “tended to a rosebush overgrown with mint” and was happy doing it, which he was grateful for.
That week became what she called their “romantic lost week,” after which they went their separate ways to work on other films. They, however, reunited while promoting the film some months later.
