Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise reunite for first time in 24 years at ‘F1’ London premiere

Two of the world’s biggest movie stars reunited for the first time in 24 years at the “F1” London premiere at Cineworld Leicester Square.

Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise, who memorably starred in 1994’s “Interview With the Vampire,” were photographed palling around during Monday’s red carpet, at one point hugging.

The “Top Gun: Maverick” actor was also seen smiling while patting Pitt’s lapel, and in other pics, the duo chatted and laughed at the event.

Snaps showed the mega movie stars engaging in a brotherly handshake. In a particularly affectionate moment, the pair posed for photos arm in arm.

Pitt, 61, wore a distinctive hunter green suit with a mint green scarf, and finished the look with brown shoes and a stylish pair of tortoise shell shades. The “Wolfs” actor was previously spotted at the movie’s Mexico and New York City premieres.

Cruise, 62, donned his signature aviator sunglasses with a gray suit and black shoes.

Cruise arrived solo for the event, while Pitt’s girlfriend attended with the actor.

The actors were last photographed together in 2001, at 9/11 benefit “A Tribute to Heroes” in Los Angeles. A pic from the event showed the actors in casual outfits, once again embracing.

The “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” actor recently revealed that he’d be willing to reunite with Cruise on the big screen — under one condition.

“Well, I’m not gonna hang my ass off airplanes and s–t like that,” Pitt he told E! News earlier this month, referring to Cruise’s penchant for doing his own stunts.

“So when he does something again that’s on the ground, [then yes].”

Cruise, meanwhile, revealed that he and Pitt enjoyed go-kart racing during filming for the ’90s vampire horror classic.

“It’s great to see Brad driving. He’s very good,” he said during an April appearance at CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas.

“He’s a very good driver,” Cruise recalled. “Believe me, I’ve raced against him. When we were doing ‘Interview With the Vampire’ we’d go and race go-karts. We’d literally finish and go drive go-karts all night.”

Pitt returned the sentiment in his comments to E! News, confessing he lost to the “Mission: Impossible” star.

“He got me in the end,” he said. “I gotta admit.”
