Tom Cruise’s love life has been a hot topic of conversation as of late. He’s recently been rumored to be romancing young singer Victoria Canal. However, he’s also romanced several different women on screen. Over the years, he’s starred alongside Penelope Cruz, Renee Zellweger, Cameron Diaz, and more. Now, one of his former co-stars, Gina Gershon, is opening up about her experience filming intimate scenes with the actor.
During an interview on Watch What Happens Live, Gina Gershon recalled filming Cocktail with Tom Cruise, which marked her first on-screen racy scenes. While the actress revealed that the actor was considerate, she did dish on one major setback they had during their scenes.
Gina Gershon Gushes over ‘Cocktail’ Co-Star Tom Cruise
“He was even a gentleman. At one point, he starts off like under the covers, and I told him I was very ticklish. You know, I said, ‘No, no, don’t ever do that,’” she remembered. “In one take, I have to say I think he wanted a reaction, and he grabbed my stomach, and I kneed him right in the nose. I was like, ‘Oh my God I just broke Tom Cruise’s nose!”
The actress added that Cruise took responsibility for the incident. She also claims that he was very “protective” of her during their racy scenes. “He was great,” she confirmed. In addition, Gershon dished about Cruise’s first wife, Mimi Rogers” being “very present” on the set of the film. However, despite Rogers presence, the actress says that she and Cruise kissed as much as they could in their scenes.
Host Andy Cohen later pressed Gina Gershon about whether or not she and Tom Cruise ever hooked up in real life. However, she refused to answer the personal question as she brushed off the thought.
Although Tom Cruise may have been married while filming with Gina Gershon, both actors seem to be single. Maybe the walk down memory lane could be enough for the actress to shoot her shot with the Top Gun star now.
