While promoting Ballerina, de Armas was asked about her plans for the future and rumors that she was “working with another big star” and “a stunt master.”
GMA co-host Michael Strahan directly named Cruise, asking de Armas if they were collaborating on a movie that would entail her doing “some other crazy stunts.”
“We’re definitely working on a lot of things. Not just one but a few projects with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom. And I’m so excited,” de Armas said.
Liman is a director who worked with Cruise on 2014’s Edge of Tomorrow and 2017’s American Made. McQuarrie is a director and screenwriter; he and Cruise have joined forces on various movies within the Mission: Impossible franchise. He also wrote the script for Edge of Tomorrow.
