Annabell Wallis boasts about doing a running scene with Tom Cruise

The popular star, Annabelle Wallis is known for her work in the well-recognised television series, Peaky Blinders. She managed to share a scene with Tom and even got to race him while filming their 2017 film, The Mummy. Annabelle recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter and revealed that Tom is on a different level, and she even ticked a box and managed to run on-screen with him. She also said that Tom had initially refused to do the scene and had also informed Annabelle that he would not do the scene at first. 

Thus, Annabelle decided to time her treadmill so that he’d walk in and see her run. Only after seeing Annabelle Wallis’ dedication, Tom agreed to share the scene with her and added all these running scenes. She ended the conversation by saying that running with Tom on-screen made her so happy and feels that it was better than an Oscar.
