Ana de Armas says it’s “amazing” to be working with Tom Cruise and “surreal” that the movie star would praise her work.
“It’s very special,” de Armas told Access Hollywood at the premiere of her John Wick movie “Ballerina” on Tuesday when asked about him raving about her role in the film. “It’s very surreal that an actor like him, like someone like him, likes the movie and my performance and my work, and we’re working together now so, yeah, it’s pretty, it’s really amazing.”
At the London premiere of “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning,” Crusie told a reporter: “I just saw the movie. It kicks a–,” referring to “Ballerina.” “Oh, man, it’s right in that tone. It’s right in that big world. You’re going to love it.”
De Armas and Cruise sparked dating rumors earlier this year when they were spotted together in London and are set to shoot the supernatural thriller “Deeper” together.

Regarding “Deeper,” de Armas told Deadline she was “Training, just training, getting ready for what’s going to come.”
She’s said that she and Cruise are working on “a few projects” together.
The rumored couple were first seen together in London in February and have been spotted together several times since, including on her birthday in April and at David Beckham’s birthday party in May.
In a photo and video captured by a bystander and shared on X of the April birthday stroll, Cruise walked next to de Armas with his hands behind his back and was holding what appeared to be an olive green dog leash with a pouch. The pair were accompanied by another woman as well as security guards.
