The Late Late Show: April 5th 2013. Starring Tom Cruise!

Skid X

No, April Fools day was yesterday.

IT will be a busy 24 hours for Hollywood star Tom Cruise, who is due to jet in to Ireland tomorrow for a whirlwind stopover to promote his new film.

He will record an interview with Ryan Tubridy for the 'Late Late Show' at RTE before gracing the red carpet at the Irish premiere of 'Oblivion' with his co-star Olga Kurylenko and director Joseph Kosinski, at the Savoy cinema on O'Connell Street.

So that's Tom Cruise on The Late Late Show this week.
The Irish Late Late Show, with Tubridy. not the American one.

A real life Hollywood Star on The Late Late Show.

I will update post#25 below with news of any other guests.

They'll have to get comfier chairs just in case Tom gets over excited again.

hfallada

The first proper celebrity on the late late in years. Don't get your hopes up I'm sure next week theyll have another page 3 model

tylercheribini

he got sam jackson before too

Pinkman

Surely the biggest star ever to appear on the LLS? No doubt Tubs will spend most of the interview talking about any Irish connections.

He'll definitely bring up "Far and away"

chughes

I wonder will he try his "Far and Away" accent.

Larianne

Oh FFS! Missed him by a week!! :mad:

Xenu always provides.

How long into the interview will we get before Tubbs asks Cruise about his Irish roots as he sits there with a Twinkle in his Eyes Wide Shut.

It is a mission impossible not to have a reference to or mention of Twink in a LLS thread :P

Will somebody think of the children accent

squonk

Well, after people Tubbs met in the RTE canteen and a few z-listers plugging books, it's great to finally see a real Hollywood Top Gun grace the LLS set

father_ted9t9

Been in and gone:) Nice guy!!

The most boring man in Ireland meets the most boring man in Hollywood. Perhaps they'll strike up a romance and elope to another astral plain or is that just me being optimistic.

For some reason RTE only put a short clip of that interview online. Maybe Tubs made a mess of the rest of it, I don't know.

We've waited Knight and Day for what promises to be a Cocktail of serious and witty chat. By Far and Away, this is the biggest interview Ryan has ever conducted - will Tubs have All The Right Moves? Interviewing Cruise has proved to be Risky Business for others...will Ryan be Top Gun?





And I'm done.

**Cold Compress Alert***........

You can depend on us WM!......:P

After Tom Cruise getting an "irishness" award today... Apparently his family can be traced back to 12th century Ireland... I would fear that the paddywhackery-o'meter will be off the chart in this interview... In fact I'm a bit worried that Tom (or "Tam" as he will be known for the night) may repress back in to his Far And Away accent..


Oh and dont forget the obligatory:

Tubridy: "How does it feel looking at that" ....*gestures towards clip of Top Gun on the monitor*
Cruise: "Ah shur twas great ta be shure, ta be shure".

Skid X

"It's all very well having Tom Cruise - but what about the other guests? " I hear you ask ...

Joining Tom on the couch will be his Oblivion Co-Star Olga Kurylenko
You may remember her from such Films as 'Quantum of Solace' and 'Seven Psychopaths'





Fresh from ITV's Big Reunion, it is the first Irish TV appearance in years** from B*Witched



**apart from when Keavy and Edele formed Barbarellas a few years ago. That didn't last long, I'm glad they took my advice to reform the original group


Former Governor of Mountjoy Prison John Lonergan plugs his new RTE show 'John Lonergan's Circus'




Something about New Media with Lauren Taylor and Niall Harbison from SimplyZesty.




We will have a song from the British Band Bastille, who are in town for the Trinity Ball




A bit of Trad/Folk from Solas


Jamelia is on, she really wants us to watch The Voice of Ireland. And so is Sharon Corr!

And thanks to Kj72 for the news that "someone former tv announcer tamara something - worked for itv or similar in the past apparently!" will be on . That's one guest you won't want to miss! Post show edit: Alas, we never got to see this mysterious guest. Maybe next week

Lapin

If Tom Cruise was a big Arsenal fan would he be called a Top Gunner ?


:pac:






Where's my coat?

My guess is that he's more of a Brighton and Hove Albion supporter.:D

grey_so_what

Will Mr.T ask the hard questions about Katie's skin routine or his pick-up times for little Cruise?

Or will he just ask about the Scientology thing???????

***scratches head****....bit itchy.......:)

Back to the Z-listers so.... and it was all going so well!

John Lonergan, that clown who used to run Mountjoy like a creche, is on to plug his new show which 'helps eight young people from disadvantaged communities in Dublin gain valuable life skills by attending the Belfast Community Circus School. The programme follows the teenagers as they prepare for a St Patrick's Day performance, offering an insight into the highs and lows of their experiences'

Is there no-one hanging around the Canteen they could drag in instead?

Also something about New media with Lauren Fisher, founder of Simplyzesty.com and others.

Or Tom Cruise is also on Graham Norton at 10.35pm if you want to compare and contrast his interview with Tubby's.

Is Norton live or recorded does anyone know?

Looking forward to tonight guys - this thread should be more entertaining than ever! :-D

I'm actually looking forward to doing just that.

So are most of the rest of you here if the truth be told. :cool:

This is the first time in ages where I actually want to watch the Late Late show now. I know they had Hollywood stars before, but they were always average stars or guys who haven't been in anything major in ages.

But Tom, love him or hate him (IMO, I saw him on graham norton's show and he actually comes across as a decent, nice guy so shouldn't believe everything in the tabloids) is a still a big major star to appear on the Late Late so think it will be worth it to watch it tonight. Just hope they don't leave the interview last minute or il end up forgetting.

Also does anyone know why Tom and co. decided to come to Ireland for the Irish premiere? Whenever there is a major premiere, only the little known cast go to it, while Irish celebs turn up too. So was kinda shocked to hear that Tom, Olga and Andrea wanted to come for it.

Tom is researching his Irish ancestry.

And that'll be the switch over to Adam and Paul point for me I'd imagine!

That's exactly how I would describe 'Adam and Paul', but there is no accounting for taste!

Oh he wanted to research his ancestry? I thought he just decided to come here for his premiere and because he is such a big star, the people of The Gathering took it upon themselves to research it and give it to him.
