LONDON, ENGLAND: On his arrival in London, Tom Cruise debuted his brand-new hairstyle before boarding a chopper to make his way to the 'Mission Impossible 8' shoot.

The 61-year-old Hollywood star visited the hairdresser and left with a much lighter highlighted appearance than the darker hairstyle he had appeared in the summer. Cruise was observed sporting a broad, corny smile as his opulent hair was blown around by the chopper rotors.

According to The Mirror, he took his private jet from Tampa, Florida, to the UK. Following that, he was seen boarding a black helicopter to head to the 'Mission Impossible 8' set.



 

Delayed 'Mission: Impossible 8' shooting likely to resume

The 'MI 8' installment, which is most likely going to be titled 'Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two', would now go back into production after being delayed by the SAG-AFTRA strike.

Cruise's new hairstyle is a good indication that he's getting ready to play the popular action movie character Ethan Hunt. However, before any sequences are shot, he will need to cut off his barnet in order to transform into the sly field and operative agent.

While the WGA writers' strike has ended, Paramount has been forced to rearrange the dates of its picture releases due to the continued SAG-AFTRA actors' strike.

According to Daily Mail, the actor was supposed to make a comeback on June 28, 2024, in the role of field agent Ethan. However, due to studios' need to rearrange release dates in response to the actors' strike, it has been deferred by almost a year.

Instead, Emily Blunt's 'A Quiet Place: Day One' from Paramount Pictures has taken up the slot.

Internet users troll Tom Cruise for his latest hairdo



 

Social media users were quick to draw comparisons between the late artist Tina Turner and the 'Top Gun' actor after his latest hairstyle came to light. 

A Facebook user wrote, "Omg I was having a hard day and saw this and laughed so hard...idk why but yeah..."

Another quipped, "Hes playing tina turner," while one more said, "How would Tina turner be proud, she’s not the only one with hair."

"All the Karen’s in the world will appreciate you more," noted a person, and someone else added, "He looks like Nicole Kidman." 

One said, "He looks like an old lady," followed by a user saying, "Studio made him dye it? He doesn’t age"

Several others took to X (formerly Twitter) to continue the trolling spree, with a person writing, "The maverick now reminds me of Willy Wonka."

One more user compared Cruise's look to that of Queen Camilla and wrote, "Looks like camilla Parker Bowles."
