Tom Cruise Reportedly Pursuing Sydney Sweeney Following Split from Ana de Armas
LOS ANGELES, CA - Following his recent breakup with actress Ana de Armas, Tom Cruise is reportedly exploring a connection with Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney, according to sources. The developments come after Cruise’s relationship with de Armas ended in October after less than a year of dating, with reports suggesting de Armas felt the relationship was moving too quickly.
The interest in Sweeney appears to be multifaceted, blending both personal and professional aspirations for the Mission: Impossible actor. While acknowledging Sweeney is currently dating music manager Scooter Braun, a source claims Cruise “knows sydney’s dating someone, so there’s no point in asking her out and risking embarrassment, but he’s pleased to have established a line of dialogue,” adding, “They’ve got each othre’s phone numbers.”
News of the split between Cruise and de Armas, 37, first surfaced in October, with a source telling Us Weekly that “It was more Ana’s decision because things were moving fast and she started to get a little uncomfortable with how fast it was going.” Another source told The National Enquirer that Cruise felt “used” by de Armas, stating, “Ana suddenly went from red hot to ice cold…tom’s saying he feels used.” Cruise reportedly felt “humiliated” by the breakup and feared he might be “undateable.”
Beyond a potential romantic interest, Cruise is also reportedly keen on collaborating with Sweeney professionally. “Tom’s hell bent on getting Sydney involved in some of his upcoming projects,” an insider revealed, noting Sweeney’s ambition. ”Sydney’s a hugely ambitious girl, so of course she’s interested and intrigued at the prospect of working with Tom but as is often the case, he definitely has an ulterior motive!”
Cruise and de Armas began dating in early 2025 after meeting on the set of the film Deeper. Despite a remaining connection, as noted by a source to Us Weekly – “She still likes him a lot, and they have a connection. They will see how things go in the future” – the relationship concluded with de Armas reportedly feeling “suffocated” by Cruise’s need for control.
