Tom Cruise, Dakota Fanning and Colin Farrell had one very fun day watching Steven Spielberg's newest movie.
Cruise, 63, posted a photo from the screening of Spielberg's Disclosure Day on June 12. In the first photo, he posed with Fanning, 32, and Farrell, 50. Cruise and Fanning starred together in 2005's War of the Worlds, directed by Spielberg. Fanning was just 10 at the time. Cruise and Farrell were costars in another Spielberg film, three years earlier, 2003's Minority Report.
Cruise wrote in the caption, "Nothing better than a summer Spielberg movie night in a packed theater with friends!"
He continued, "Steven, thank you for all of the hours of joy that you have given us in the cinema!! It has been a great honor and pleasure to have worked with you and to call you my friend." He also congratulated his "dear friend" Emily Blunt (with whom he starred in 2014's Edge of Tomorrow) and "the entire group of artists that created this movie."
He added, "We all loved Disclosure Day!!" In his hands, Cruise held a popcorn bucket shaped like Spielberg, wearing a hat that had the movie's name on it. He also posed with fans at the screening with the bucket, whose provenance remains unknown (the official popcorn bucket for the film is a stag with a cardinal on its antlers).
In War of the Worlds, adapted from H.G. Wells' original novel of the same name and Orson Welles' famous 1938 radio program that told the story, Cruise played Ray Ferrier, and Fanning played Rachel, his daughter. The movie saw Cruise and Fanning flee during an alien invasion and ultimately try to make it out alive. War of the Worlds also starred Miranda Otto, Tim Robbins and Lisa Ann Walter. It made over $600 million and was acclaimed especially for its special effects.

And Fanning and Cruise have remained close through the years. Fanning said during a 2025 episode of Watch What Happens Live that every year since they filmed the movie, Cruise has given her "really nice shoes" for her birthday. Cruise also bought Fanning her first cell phone when she was 11.

Meanwhile, Cruise and Farrell's Minority Report was loosely based on Philip K. Dick's 1956 novella of the same name. It took place in 2054 in a world where a specialized "precrime" police department uses psychics to predict who will commit crimes. Once you're arrested, you're placed in a coma and imprisoned indefinitely. Cruise played Chief John Anderton, the commanding officer of the precrime unit, while Farrell played Danny Witwer, an agent from the Department of Justice. The late Max von Sydow played Lamar Burgess, the director of precrime who carries out his own series of crimes.
Minority Report made over $350 million at the box office. Its critical reputation has only grown over the years; in 2025, The New York Times named it one of its 100 greatest films of the 21st century.
Reflecting on working with Cruise, Spielberg said at the SXSW Festival in Austin, Texas, this March, "Tom Cruise showed up every morning when I showed up. I show up before the crew. So I get to the set sometimes at 6:30 in the morning."
He explained, "On Minority Report and on War of the Worlds, Tom would insist on getting there when I got there so we would map out the whole day … which was really helpful for me."
Disclosure Day is in theaters now.
