Tom Cruise, 64, appears at the London premiere of “Digger” and debuts bright red hair along with heeled boots. The reports describe the look as unexpected and attention-grabbing at the star-studded event on Tuesday night.
Both outlets connect the appearance to the actor’s preparation for a new role. They report that Cruise wore a bodysuit and prosthetics to make him look older, which they say ties to his appearance at the premiere. The coverage centers on the change in his appearance and what it indicates about his character for the film.
While the two sources do not add substantially different details, they both frame the same sequence of events: Cruise’s debut of dyed-looking red hair and the suggestion that costume work (bodysuit and prosthetics) is part of his role preparation for “Digger.”
