Connor Cruise Goes Hollywood!

April 22, 2008


With a mom who's an Oscar winner and a dad who's an Oscar nominee, it's no surprise that Connor Cruise, son of Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise, has acting ambitions.

According to a report, Connor will make his film debut in the upcoming Will Smith flick Seven Pounds. The 13-year-old will play a younger version of Will's character in what is being described as a small role.

The Smiths and Cruises have been very close family friends since Tom and Jada Pinkett Smith costarred in 2004's Collateral. However, Connor is said to have auditioned for the part.

Seven Pounds, a story of a man who changes the lives of seven strangers, also costars Woody Harrelson and Rosario Dawson. It is scheduled for release in December 2008.

Do you think Connor Cruise has what it takes to be Hollywood's next big star? Or is he just riding on the coattails of his famous parents. Tell us what you think.

If he's being formed by Scientology beliefs, he's robotic!!
-- Donna

He just cares for his family. If he doesn't do what his doing his family will spiral out of control. come on people! look at most of the hollywood stars! In and out of rehab, kids get taken away, DUI's. should i go on?
-- me

connor will prove his star power when he shows us his work..with his parents,he will have the opportunity abit easier.But will he be able to save his money or turn it over to scientology like his dad...that is the real question...

If Connor is late to "work," does he have to be re-programmed for 36 hours at a Scientology brain washing class, like Katie was? Nicole Kidman must be thanking her lucky stars every night of her life!

Now Tom is trying to get his kid into the bussiness and not to be mean but he is adopted and ther is nothing genetic going on there. The kid could be horrible at acting but get the part just because of his mom and dad.
-- Lea

He is a control FREAK!
-- Megan

Tom Cruise is a frigging retard!
-- Sammie

everyone deserves a chance to do what they want.

Nepotism always helps you get ahead in Hollywood. However, he may have talent. The older he gets the more ethnic and he is a good looking boy.
