A recent photo of Tom Cruise and Australian reporter Richard Wilkins at the London premiere of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning sparked online buzz due to their noticeable height difference.
Wilkins, who is 6’2”, appeared to tower over Cruise, who is 5’6”, though the camera angle exaggerated the gap.
Fans joked about Cruise’s smaller stature, with some saying the photo looked warped.
Despite the focus on height, the interview highlighted Cruise’s legendary stunt work, dating back to his childhood.
The new Mission: Impossible film, with a \$400 million budget, is receiving rave reviews for its thrilling action, cementing Cruise’s reputation as a top Hollywood star.
