Tom Cruise, Robert Redford Hear London Calling

While his wife Katie Holmes is training for a marathon run, Tom Cruise would rather take a nice long walk. And that’s just what he did prior to the premiere of his new movie “Lions for Lambs.”

Cruise was joined by co-star Robert Redford in London to show the world their new movie, and Tom spent the best part of two hours doing one of his now-famous “walkabouts” to mix with fans.

The “Risky Business” actor reportedly signed autographs and posed for mobile phone pictures before “Lions” began. And the English public loved every minute of it.

Tom is well-known to be good friends with Englishman David Beckham, and when asked about his friendship with the soccer stud, he reported, "We'll go out and race airplanes or race some cars. I’ll talk to Victoria and see if she's alright with that. We'll have some fun."

Must be nice.
