Tom Cruiseis known for many things, from his mysteriouscoconut cakesto his complete willingness to throw himself off of any moving vehicle he can get his hands on. But, away from his Hollywood stardom, people often forget he’s a dad to three.

Tom shares 32-year-old Isabella and 30-year-old Connor with his ex-wifeNicole Kidman, as well as 19-year-old Suri from his marriage toKatie Holmes. TheMission: Impossiblestar rarely discussesfatherhood, and it’s not often that he’s seen in public with his kids.

In late 2023, he made a rare outing with bothConnor and Isabellaat a hockey game in Florida, and in June 2024, he was seen withConnor in London, which marks the last time they were seen together. As for his youngest, Tom has not been photographed with Suri in years, and rumors of theirestrangementwere bolstered last summer when the teen reportedly dropped “Cruise” from her name at herhigh school graduation.

Now, with so much intrigue surrounding his life as a dad, Tom was asked a rare question about fatherhood on the red carpet at theMission: Impossible — The Final Reckoningpremiere in NYC on May 18. While chatting withE! News, the 62-year-old was asked what his “ideal Father’s Day” would look like, and I have to say, his answer didn’t give us much to work with…

After taking a beat to think, the 62-year-old kept things vague and said, “Just having fun, man,” before redirecting the conversation right back to his career. “Making movies, big adventures, and having a great time,” he said.

Ummm, something tells me he wasn’t quite expecting that topic to come up. You can watch thevideo clip hereand let me know your thoughts.
