Tom Cruise is gearing up for the release of the eighth and last MI film, Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning, but rumours are flying about his love life as he's been spotted twice with Ana De Armas.

The 62-year-old star was spotted with the 36-year-old actress at the Heliport in Battersea after a day at the Longcross Studios.


It came after he was seen enjoying a dinner with the Cuban-born star on Valentine's Day last month in Soho, London.

While the Hollywood idols were waiting for a helicopter to pick them up, Ana was sporting a long black woollen coat, cropped jeans, and trainers.

Meanwhile, Tom high-fived the Heliport staff dressed in a black leather jacket, tight jeans, and boots.

They were joined at the Heliport by filmmaker Doug Liman, the filmmaker behind Tom's sci-fi blockbuster Edge of Tomorrow (sometimes called Live. Die. Repeat.), and the recent Jake Gyllenhaal-helmed Road House remake on Amazon Prime.

Following their previous Valentine's Day meal, they were mobbed by fans as they left the restaurant and before they jumped into a taxi carrying two bags of takeaway food.


At the time, a source told PEOPLE that the stars were at dinner with their agents "discussing potential collaborations down the line," and noted that the pair "appeared to have no romantic connection, just friends."

The two stars have each been romantically linked to others as well, as Tom sparked romance rumours with singer Victoria Canal in August, while Ana was spotted holding hands with the stepson of Cuban president, Manuel Anido Cuest in December.

Neither Tom, who shares daughter Isabella, 32, and son Connor, 30, with ex-wife Nicole Kidman and daughter Suri, 18, with ex-wife Katie Holmes, or Ana have commented on their relationship.


The latest Mission Impossible will see Tom step away from the franchise, with the future of it remaining uncertain.

Directed by Christopher McQuarrie, the pair have endured a relentless five-year production cycle on this tentpole and the previous installent, Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning.

Looking ahead, Christopher recently said: "There's tons of other stuff that we’re doing," hinting at other projects on the horizon. "If somebody does make another, I’ll be there on opening night."

At 62 years old, Tom Cruise doesn't have any plans to retire, saying he was inspired by Harrison Ford, who is still making movies at 82.

"Harrison Ford is a legend. I hope to be still going at that age, I've got 20 years to catch up with him," he told The Sydney Morning Herald.

Tom's career in Hollywood is legendary and goes far beyond Mission Impossible with hits such as Minority Report, Collateral, The Last Samurai, Eyes Wide Shut, A Few Good Men, War of the Worlds, Risky Business, Jerry Maguire, Rain Man, and so many more.
