Among the names include fellow Australian Nicole Kidman and Anthony Hopkins, but his “one north star” is Tom Cruise, according to Deadline.
“What I really appreciate about what Tom has done is that there’s always an entertainment factor to his work, but there’s a moral message underneath. I’d call it sort of accidental learning,” Chris shared.
