Tom Cruise thrilled fans when he appeared at the Manchester City vs. Manchester United game recently. Cruise, who is friends with former Manchester United player David Beckham, said Beckham wished he was there with Cruise to take in the match. “This is the first game that I’ve seen in England,” he told Sky News. “I’ve been following it since the ’80s so I’m just excited to be here. [Beckham] wishes he was here. I got an email from him; he’s jealous that I’m here.”

“Jack Reacher” stars Cruise as Lee Child’s famous literary character:

“From The New York Times bestselling author Lee Child comes one of the most compelling heroes to step from novel to screen—ex-military investigator Jack Reacher (Tom Cruise). When a gunman takes five lives with six shots, all evidence points to the suspect in custody. On interrogation, the suspect offers up a single note: “Get Jack Reacher!” So begins an extraordinary chase for the truth, pitting Jack Reacher against an unexpected enemy, with a skill for violence and a secret to keep. Written for the screen and directed by Oscar-winner Christopher McQuarrie (The Usual Suspects). Co-starring Rosamund Pike, Richard Jenkins, Werner Herzog, David Oyelowo and Robert Duvall!”
