For months now, Ana de Armas has been hanging out with Tom Cruise. Rumors have circulated about what these “dates” have been about – possibly a professional mentorship, possibly a genuine friendship, maybe they planned to work together. Very few people believed that Tom and Ana were romantically involved, but sure, those rumors have been around as well. Well, here’s the biggest piece of evidence that Ana and Tom might actually be in a relationship: Ana is now “liking” nasty Instagram posts about Tom’s ex-wife Nicole Kidman. Here’s the evidence:

Per the Daily Mail, Ana “liked a post that criticised the Moulin Rouge star’s denial of cosmetic procedures. ‘When you keep it real #nicolekidman,’ the post was captioned, showing the actress up close while tagging a dermal filler brand as the location.” This is MESSY! Good lord. In case you’re wondering, Ana is 37 years old, Nicole is 58, and Tom is 63. Nicole and Tom rarely speak about each other or their marriage/divorce. When they do reference each other, it’s usually complimentary at this point, like when they did some press around the 25th anniversary of Eyes Wide Shut. Basically, Tom and Nicole are fine with barely thinking or speaking about each other, so why is Tom’s maybe-girlfriend doing all of this? The internet is ripping into Ana as well, comparing her filmography to Nicole’s, and on and on. I mean… Ana deserves that.
Even Ana de Armas Updates stands with Nicole:

Ana needs to get over her daddy issues lest she becomes the next Katie Holmes.
Is she a Scientology member?
I’m not convinced this is a real relationship but according to her people, she’s not a Scientologist.
@kitten not COS but perchance Catholic–Nic and Katie were both Catholic, I don’t know if that is a cause or a co-morbidity.
The People pic and announcement came out this morning. So presumably, at this elder stage of Tom’s life, he had pay her set-for-life money upfront. She can take care of her family and extended family. I hope she knows that the money is the thing and ignored his pitch about how he would help take her career to the next level. Get rid of her management and representation, replace them with his, and then play mind games with her as opportunities pass her by and her career languishes in peak years for women.
One thing for sure. No one is buying what these two are selling.
I don’t know if she realizes how much danger she’s in messing with around with him. Katie had a hard as nails lawyer father and an army of a family that rescued her. I don’t think Ana has people at the ready to get her out. But if she’s dumb and mean enough to be shading Nic, so sad, too bad.
she is a shitty person. she also dated a dictator’s son right before cruise. also, she will never have the career or talent Nicole Kidman has.
Whaaat?! Which dictator?!
Manuel Anido Cuesta, the stepson of Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Can
so gross especially given that his brother is a fervent opposer of the regimen and has been persecuted for it
Is that it? It is kinda shady but I was expecting it to be worse based on the reactions.
Exactly.
She doesn’t seem to make very good life choices. After all she was in a relationship with Ben Affleck. Liking a negative post about the ex of someone you may or may not be involved with seems pretty juvenile to me.
Yep. Had high hopes for her after Blade Runner but, oh man, has she run her brand into the ground. Those buffoonish, pandemic pap walks with Affleck are seared into the brain.
I mean, Kidman is one of the GOAT if not thee GOAT. At the end of the day she’s famous for her body of work, not for her looks or because she dated Tom Cruise.
She absolutely is. Of all her amazing movies, I still contemplate Dogville almost daily.
Seems pretty juvenile to me. Was the photo in question doctored or is that how NK really looks without makeup?
Let’s revisit this in 20 years and see how Ana’s face is doing.
Honestly I have a hard time believing that Ana hasn’t done anything to her face, especially looking at the header pic. And that’s fine. We all know that our face in our late 30s and beyond is not the face we had in our 20s, but don’t trash another woman for work she may or may not have done when you’re playing in the same cosmetic pond.
“but don’t trash another woman for work she may or may not have done when you’re playing in the same cosmetic pond.”
Exactly. But also? If she’s hanging with Tom Cruise, he also has had extensive work done.
@aimee – my thoughts exactly!
What a rookie-level mistake. But her whole playbook is confusing me now. I think it’s clear she is not happy/satisfied with whatever boost she got from the Oscar nomination (hell these days even the a win Is not always that much of a boost); and her John Wick spinoff movie was a nothing burger. But Tom Cruise girlfriend? Girl, if you need a marketability boost go chase a Marvel role. This is not a good plan!
Anna has a lot going for her, including her beauty and talent but her decision-making is not there. Ultimately, I think that is what gives you long-term career success.
I honestly forgot she had been nominated for an Oscar till you mentioned it here. Seriously, what big roles has she done since then?
This little slip up makes her look pathetic and petty.
Honestly, Tom is going to haaaate this. For decades he has avoided trashing Nic in public, and on the rare occasion she’s been mentioned, he’s always been deliberately gracious. Not saying that isn’t all calculated for his image, I’m sure it is, but that makes me think he’s going to hate Ana’s indiscretion even more.
The only thing more important to Tom than his image are his stunts. Messing with those is messing with fire.
Yeah, Tom Cruise is a terrible person for a variety of reasons but in this one instance, he is able to act like a decent person. Such an odd thing for Ana de Armas to do.
He needs to stop messing with his face!
I think the dating rumours seemed bogus at first because they just both happened to have films to promote but also you really hope it isn’t true! She got flack for the Oscar nomination to as I’m pretty sure that was the year Andrea rise borough was nominated and it reignited the Oscar so white and that it was for the film blonde that so many people hated as it was an obvious exploitation of Marilyn Monroe. She clearly makes very poor life decisions – we all know Nicole Kidman has jacked her face but it’s as much a part of the industry and pressure on women as anything else. To hate on a woman 20 tears older than her is a choice – she’s being dragged badly all over Twitter.
Yeah, that’s messy behavior.
Ana has always been shady imo.
They’re working together on a film with Doug Liman and potentially planning a second. This feels more like the same kind of thing that went around about Cruise and Haylee Atwell when they were filming MI and going to like, Wimbledon.
Idk about the IG like, but it is easy to accidentally like posts when you’re scrolling. Maybe she did it on purpose tho? Who knows.
It hasn’t started filming yet. And they were just spotted out holding hands. They’re definitely “dating” either for real or for pr.
Poor form. Yes, Nicole has had work done to her face. The industry is not easy for older actresses. It’s also a private matter. At the end of the day this is her business, in every sense.
I don’t know if Ana and Tom are romantically involved, but if they are, it’s also kind of weird for her to shade his ex from whom he has been divorced for what, decades now? Why? Because she’s very respected and still booked and busy? Read the room.
Tom Cruise will dump her after this.
Ana who?
Seems like she’s a “hired gun” for problematic actors, creating a distraction and whatever narrative they’re pushing. Probably pays welll
I’ll never understand why celebrities with the world at their fingertips (I don’t know anyone that wasn’t mesmerised by her in Blade Runner and she gave a lovely performance in Knives Out too) will torpedo their brand with these stupid antics. People loved her in the last Bond as well. Why why why do this? It’s only making herself look terrible.
tom really sucks the life and soul out of them, huh. hope she gets out, even if she’s been displaying shitty behaviour.
Apparently it’s real but she liked the post before she and Tom started dating. No it’s not very nice, but basically someone dug this up just to create drama.
Whenever she did it, liking nasty posts about someone doesn’t say much for you as a person.
This kind of shocks me. I mourn what Nicole has done to her face, but she loves acting, and probably loved looking lovely, and it is her decision. FFS, she is 55, and never attacks another actress….or actor, that I know of. I can’t imagine Ana doing something this stupid. And no, she is not dating Cruise, he just uses his female leads to make people think he still dates. I don’t know, but if she is dating him, she’s lost her mind, and this liking is the first indication of it. Wow, is she going to learn a lesson from this. I’m not on twitter or X, and it’s times like these I wish I was.
I’ve always wanted to know the tea on Ana and Keanu Reeves. They filmed the steamy Knock, Knock together Spring 2014, She’s admitted her English wasn’t great. Fall 2014 they are announced as co-leads on Daughter of God/Exposed. Later she gets Ballerina as her first action lead. She’s gorgeous and insanely talented, but I am curious.
I don’t know, babes. This seems like a pretty tiny and innocuous “like” to read so much into. Social media is the devil precisely because we’re allowed to sense-make and project all sorts of illusions onto people we’ve never met.
And for the record, I find Nic unwatchable these days due to what she’s done to her face. I get so uncomfortable when an actor’s face registers zero movement until they smile, and then all the frozen parts and fillers squish up into Uncanny Valley territory.
