Tom Cruise Likes To Be In Character (14/22)

Tom Cruise is known for his intense dedication to his roles, and one of the most interesting aspects of his acting process is how deeply he gets into character—sometimes to the point where it transcends the set. Cruise has built a reputation for staying in character even when the cameras aren’t rolling, which is something that often surprises both his co-stars and crew members.

For example, while filming the Mission: Impossible series, Cruise was known to remain in the mindset of his character, Ethan Hunt, long after the scenes were over. Whether it’s being ultra-focused, doing his own stunts, or maintaining the character’s level of intensity, Cruise stays true to his role throughout the entire production process. In some cases, he’ll even avoid socializing with the rest of the cast in order to keep a certain distance, helping him remain “in character” and fully immersed in the world of the film.

His commitment isn’t just limited to staying in character during filming. Cruise is also famous for his attention to detail, making sure every part of the character’s backstory is fleshed out and knowing the psychological motivations behind every action. In interviews, he has discussed how he strives to live and breathe the character, even picking up certain mannerisms or specific traits that add depth to his performance.

This devotion to method acting isn’t universally loved—some might find it a bit excessive or distracting—but for Cruise, it’s part of what makes him one of Hollywood’s most dedicated and successful actors. His ability to truly live the role contributes to the authenticity and impact of his performances, whether he’s playing a soldier, a spy, or a fighter pilot.
