TOM CRUISE DOESN'T RUN WITH ANYONE IN HIS MOVIES
The characteristic style of Tom Cruise (59) when it comes to running has become one of his hallmarks.

It is not lost on the actor that the more careers he hits in a movie, the more money he tends to pocket, and that is why he is not willing to allow anyone to eclipse him in those key scenes. In fact, his co-star on 'The Mummy' was disappointed when she was informed that Cruise doesn't run with just anyone.
"In the end I got it, but at first he refused and told me that no one ran beside him on the big screen, and I kept repeating that he was a consummate 'runner'", Annabelle Wallis has revealed in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
In the end, the actress was left with no choice but to get on a static treadmill to show him that she was really fit and could keep up with her.
"I scheduled my workouts for him to come by and see me. It worked, because he added a lot of running sequences into the plot," she added. "He was more rewarding than winning an Oscar. He made me so excited."
Despite that initial little disagreement, Annabelle has joined Tom Cruise's fan club in Hollywood after working alongside her and seeing how the guy plays in action scenes.
"It is as real as life itself," she confirmed. "He takes it very seriously and loves what he does. He is a movie buff. I think what really impresses people is his passion and love for cinema, and his desire to do his best, to keep improving and challenging the limits ", has affirmed.
