Tom Cruise Spotted Playing With Mexican Toy Balero on the ‘Mission Impossible’ Red Carpet
Tom Cruise embarks on a thrilling new mission, leaving fans excited to witness the beloved actor resurrect Ethan Hunt in “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.”
At the world premiere in Rome, Italy the actor engaged in a lively conversation on the red carpet with mitú’s own Jessica Ruvalcaba.
The Director of Social and Editorial Content gave the actor a new mission: she invited him to play with a traditional Mexican toy, the balero.
Although Cruise was praised for performing some of the most difficult stunts in his latest film, this Latin classic was a whole other animal. Did he have the dexterity necessary for this game? Could he capture the elusive wooden barrel as it gracefully spins through the air using only a stick? We have all the deets.
Tom Cruise confessed his training with the balero dates back several years
Wearing a sophisticated blue suit, the ever-daring 60-year-old, determined to impress his fans, wasted no time delving into the task.
“This is very hard,” he said, trying to achieve the goal. “Ok, we are going to be here forever. Just know I trained for months, sometimes years and this is the first time on camera.”
“That was close,” he added, giving it one last shot.
After five attempts, the actor could not complete the mission. It seems like this game requires a lot of patience and practice. Just as his crazy difficult stunts.
However, as far as the new “Mission Impossible,” Cruise is confident he nailed a new adventure for fans to enjoy
