Tom Cruise’s excitement was palpable at the European premiere of “Twisters,” as shared by actor Anthony Ramos.
The premiere took place at Cineworld Leicester Square in London on July 8, where Cruise was seen showing enthusiastic support for his “Top Gun: Maverick” co-star Glen Powell. Powell headlines the tornado-themed disaster film alongside Daisy Edgar-Jones and Ramos himself.
During the Los Angeles premiere of “Twisters” on July 11, Ramos recounted Cruise’s animated reaction throughout the screening. “Glen was sitting behind me, my brother was next to me, and Tom was behind my brother. Tom just kept hitting me the whole entire movie,” Ramos said. “After the third time, I turned back around, like, ‘Yo, Tom Cruise is bugging out right now!’ He keeps hitting me.”
Ramos elaborated on Cruise’s lively response, noting that Cruise laughed out loud and engaged enthusiastically with various moments in the film. “He wasn’t afraid to express himself. I was super grateful about that,” Ramos remarked.
Following the screening, Ramos shared a heartfelt moment with Cruise. “We hugged it out,” Ramos revealed. “He’s like, ‘Yo, bro, good man, good stuff.’ So shout out to Tom Cruise, man. It was really cool.”
Cruise later took to Instagram to share snapshots from the event, highlighting his enjoyment of the movie night with friends. “Fun night with friends, watching a movie!!” Cruise captioned the post, which included a video featuring Ramos alongside Cruise and Powell.
Reflecting on his experience with “Twisters,” Ramos expressed gratitude for the collaboration with director Lee Isaac Chung and the entire cast. “That whole crew was some of the best, the best group of people I’ve ever worked with in my life,” Ramos praised. “It’s always a blessing when you can work with amazing human beings and people who are super talented at the same time.”
