Ana de Armas recently spoke about her equation with Tom Cruise. The pair is working on a new project that includes Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie.

Ana de Armas talks about Tom Cruise and working with him
Ana de Armas has been often spotted with Tom Cruise in the past few months, but the actress says it is because the duo is working together. In a recent interview with Women’s Wear Daily, Armas gushed about the extensive “training” that she is currently participating in, thanks to the Mission Impossible thespian.
The 37-year-old Oscar-nominated actress revealed, “Obviously, everyone knows I’m working with Tom Cruise. We’re working on something with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie, and those guys are unbelievable at everything they do.”
Armas teased, “I’m doing crazy training, as you do when you’re working with Tom. It’s another level that just keeps setting the bar higher and higher.” She further shared, “But it’s so much fun. And we’re not only working on that thing that we’re training for, but also a couple other things too.”
Additionally, sources close to the celebrities have reportedly said the duo “appeared to have no romantic connection.” The duo were photographed together in February in London. At the time, a source told PEOPLE they grabbed dinner together along with their agents. The pair spent time “discussing potential collaborations down the line.”
Meanwhile, Armas is also starring in a John Wick franchise film, Ballerina, which will hit the theaters on June 6, 2025. Aramas plays the role of Eve Macarro, a ballerina who has started an unconventional training following the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma.
As much as Ballerina is an action film, Armas says it is also about the character’s emotional journey. The Blonde star explained in her WWD interview, “As much action as there was on the page, I could see the heart too. The character has such a beautiful journey. The emotionality of the character is so important in the film, I was just like, ‘oh, I have to do this.’”
