Tom Cruise is reportedly considering a potential collaboration with Taylor Swift, with an “old-school, age-gap rom-com” among the ideas discussed, according to reports cited by StyleCaster.

Cruise and Swift were recently seen together at a Kansas City Chiefs game, prompting reports about their friendship and the possibility of them working together.

According to RadarOnline, Cruise is interested in making a romantic comedy with Swift. The report cited a source who said an “old-school, age-gap rom-com” is one idea that has been discussed.

“Tom genuinely wants to find something he could do with Taylor, and an old-school romantic comedy is one idea that has been talked about,” the source told the outlet.

The source added, “There is talk he is thinking it should be an age-gap romance featuring their characters, but done in a very 'woke' way. The thinking would be a sophisticated, funny throwback to the kind of star-driven romantic comedies Hollywood used to make regularly, but with a modern edge.”

However, the project remains at an early stage. The report stated that nothing is formally in development and there is currently no script or deal.

“Nothing is formally in development and there isn't a script or deal. Tom simply thinks Taylor has extraordinary instincts and believes there could be something interesting in putting two people from very different corners of entertainment together,” the source said.

Cruise also reportedly described the prospect of collaborating with Swift as “amazing” at the London premiere of his new comedy Digger.

Another source, speaking to Rob Shuter’s Naughty But Nice, suggested Cruise is aware of the attention surrounding his association with Swift.

“Tom doesn't accidentally end up in the most photographed box in America,” the source said. “He knows exactly where the cameras are — and right now, Taylor is the biggest camera magnet on earth.”

The source also claimed Swift is “flattered” by Cruise’s interest and views their interactions as “hilarious and fun”.
