Despite Tom Cruise spending the majority of the weekend at the Wimbledon Championships, he also had a spare few minutes to FaceTime the England football team—to wish them luck.
The Mission Impossible actor, who is currently in London, has been pictured at Wimbledon, watching both the men and women's finals—delighting fans by sitting with them and takings selfies.
However, England football captain Harry Kane, who will play in the final of the Euros tonight, against Italy at Wembley, has revealed that the actor FaceTimed the team to wish them luck before their big game.
Harry told BBC Radio 5Live, "Obviously we have had ex-players and people get in touch.
"We actually had Tom Cruise get in touch yesterday evening, you get everyone who loves football. The majority of people in the world love football, so it’s great to have all that support not just in England but across the world, so it’s been a great time for all of us.
The 27-year old footballer, who seemed very unfazed by the A-list celebrity message, went on to say, "Yes, we were fortunate enough to have a watch of one of his films so I think he was over here in the UK and he just dialled in and FaceTimed us just to wish us the best as a group so that was nice of him."
