Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas have not broken up

Now that they’re both focused on a no-strings-attached fling, they’re also said to have rediscovered what brought them together in the first place: a shared filmmaking intensity. “Tom has always admired Ana’s work ethic,” says another source close to the actor.

“She’s passionate and fearless, and he loves that energy. There’s genuine affection, but it’s evolved into something healthier: a sex-only friendship, but one rooted in respect.”

The pair have been spotted several times during filming, laughing between takes and attending crew dinners together.

“They are just crazy about each other,” a source claimed. “They have both personally moved away from the idea that they will settle down and have a family, but there is a real bond that has never gone away.”

de Armas, who received critical acclaim for her role in Knives out and started playing Marilyn Monroe Blondhas seen her career blossom since their first collaboration. Cruise, meanwhile, continues to dominate the box office with the Mission: Impossible franchise.
