When it’s about the best desserts, chocolate cakes undoubtedly top the list. However, the mouth-watering dessert isn’t something Tom Cruise craves for. Earlier, while filming a scene, Cruise ate so many chocolate cakes that he couldn’t even bear their smell.
The actor appeared on a talk show, where he revealed that he had to eat chocolate cakes for three consecutive days while shooting for a film. The actor is renowned for his fearless stunts, but indeed, this was no less than a stunt for him.
Tom Cruise ended up vomiting after eating too many chocolate cakes
Looking at some incredible performances by Tom Cruise, it is obvious to say that his dedication to work has always been at its peak. However, to many of his fans’ surprise, this dedication isn’t limited to the action genre, as he has been acing his other roles as well. It is the identity of a true actor who can surpass any odds and excel in the role.
Cruise is one such actor in Hollywood who can justify the label of a perfectionist as he has seen all kinds of odds, especially during the initial phase of his career. The actor previously appeared on The Graham Show, where he shared a bizarre scene that made him despise chocolate at the time. The actor revealed that while filming a scene in his 1983 film The Outsiders, he had to eat so many chocolate cakes that he ended up puking.
The actor explained that, when he got to know about the scene where he had to eat chocolate cakes, he was very thrilled. The Top Gun actor said,
“I was like, ‘You know what, I’m going to eat chocolate cake in this scene.”
However, later, when he had to overeat those cakes, that dessert became a nightmare for him. The actor said,
“I thought, because I had to do it in the scene, it’s part of the character, I’m going to eat chocolate cake. We ended up shooting this scene for three days, we did like 100 takes of me eating chocolate cake, and I had to keep eating it. The first couple of takes, I was like ‘This is so good, it was so moist. And then it was like, ‘Oh my gosh, did we get it? Three days of Francis [Ford Coppola] saying, ‘Let’s do it again.’ I was in sugar shock, I was vomiting.”
Though the actor didn’t have a very great memory of this film, his dedication to the work is indeed praiseworthy.
What is Tom Cruise currently doing?
Looking at Tom Cruise’s performances, it doesn’t seem that the actor is ever on a break. Recently, the action superstar came out with a bang with his latest movie, Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1.
The film marked its release on July 12, 2023. And a few days later, the two most anticipated movies of the year, Oppenheimer and Barbie, entered the market to make a blast. Amidst the stiff competition, Cruise’s film managed to hold its ground. However, despite getting positive reviews from critics, the box office collection of the film couldn’t live up to expectations.
