Steven Spielberg’s Revelation Debunks A Sinister Rumor About Tom Cruise Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise on a film set

Tom Cruise was one of the busiest stars in the early 2000s, as he is today. Many speculated that he would be mostly absent from the lives of his children. However, Steven Spielberg revealed how Cruise handled the double duty of dad and actor on the sets of Minority Report. The director recalled that the phone rang at times during the filming of a scene. If it was his kids on the other side, Cruise would stop the production to attend the call.

“There were times that I was about ready to say ‘Action’, and the phone rang. If it was Tom’s kids, everything stopped for that. Just when he was preparing for probably the hardest scene he has in the whole movie, the phone rang. Anybody else would have looked up with anger in their eyes, but he immediately broke character and walked off and took the call. Connor or Isabella had stuck an eraser in their eye or something like that. It was not serious, but Dad came to the rescue.”

The Indiana Jones director revealed that he himself would’ve only taken the call after the shot, and it shows how great a dad Cruise is. Interestingly, in 2012, Cruise filed a lawsuit against Bauer Media for publishing defaming articles about him. According to TMZ, In Touch Weekly and Life & Style Weekly, owned by Bauer, had published cover photos of his daughter Suri with the title “Abandoned by Daddy”.

During the lawsuit against Bauer, Cruise admitted that he hadn’t seen his daughter for three months after his divorce from Katie Holmes. Earlier this year, a source reported to Page Six that the Jack Reacher actor continues to be estranged from Suri even after a decade. Cruise himself admitted that Holmes filed for divorce “in part to protect Suri from Scientology” (via Huffington Post).

Despite having visitation rights, Cruise doesn’t always spend time with Suri. Some sources attribute this to the fact that practicing members of his organization are not allowed to associate with non-believers. Interestingly, Cruise’s other children embrace the Church of Scientology.
