Yahoo Movies Tom Cruise surprises movie-goers by attending a Tenet screening in London
Tom Cruise is the kind of guy to throw himself out the side of a plane in order to make movies, so it's not surprising that he took the risk of being in a room full of people for over two hours during a pandemic in order to see one on a cinema screen.
The Mission: Impossible actor went to see Christopher Nolan's new and much-delayed release, the mind-bending Tenet, in London yesterday (August 25) and he was clearly very excited to see it.
The star uploaded a video (which you can watch for yourself below) of himself in the capital city, expressing his surprise that people recognised him even with his mask on.
He filmed himself inside the cinema too, captioning the clip: "Big Movie. Big Screen. Loved it."
Tom was also super excited that new films were coming out on the big screen again.
Cinemas have started to reopen after closing during the start of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, implementing social distancing guidelines and doing extra cleaning in order to try and reduce transmission rates.
The reopening isn't without its critics, however, including Marvel's Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson, who urged people not to go to the cinema just yet.
If you've already been to see Tenet and want to make sense of that ending, we've got you covered.
