Tom Cruise made a special appearance on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” and boy, did he have some interesting things to say. The conversation kicked off with a discussion about Cruise’s upcoming movie, “Top Gun Maverick,” which is set to hit theaters on May 27th.
But that’s not all. Cruise also revealed that Lady Gaga, who is featured on the movie’s soundtrack, helped compose the score for the film. According to Cruise, Gaga’s contribution was nothing short of incredible. He even shared that he attended one of her concerts two years ago, and her talent blew him away. It seems that working with Gaga on the movie’s soundtrack was a perfect fit, as her song fell right in and became the underlying score and heartbeat of the film.
Interestingly enough, Cruise and Gaga both attended the same university, but their paths never crossed during their time there. Cruise reminisced about their university days, where Gaga’s songs would echo through the halls, with everyone being a huge fan of hers. Although she started in musical theater, she soon veered off into her successful music career.
In true James Corden fashion, he couldn’t help but ask Cruise about his plans for future roles. Will we ever see Cruise in a romantic comedy again? Well, Corden didn’t have to try hard to persuade Cruise, as he jokingly said, “You had me at hello.” It seems that Cruise is open to the idea and ready to take on any role that comes his way.
As the conversation with Cruise continued, the talk show’s host went on to ask a rather amusing question. He brought up the fact that “Top Gun” takes place in a virtual world and wondered if it was difficult for Cruise to pretend that everyone around him was not a robot. Cruise admitted that it was a challenging task initially, but he eventually found his way into the character.
Overall, Cruise’s appearance on “The Late Late Show with James Corden” was filled with surprises and interesting tidbits. From his praise for Gaga’s musical talent to his willingness to take on different roles, it’s clear that Cruise is as excited as ever about his upcoming projects.
