Watch Tom Cruise’s awkward response to Father’s Day question amid estrangement from daughter Suri

Answering this question was mission: impossible.

Tom Cruise had an awkward response when asked about his Father’s Day plans in a red carpet interview Monday.

“Father’s Day is just around the corner,” the E! News journalist noted at the “Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning” premiere in New York City. “What would an ideal Father’s Day look like for you?”

The Golden Globe winner, 62, paused and said, “You know…” before trailing off and shaking his head while looking into the distance.

He eventually added, “Just having fun, man.”

The “Top Gun” star then redirected the conversation to his films without referencing any of his three children, continuing, “Making movies, big adventures, having a great time.”

Social media users called out the reporter for the “naughty question” in YouTube comments.

“Seeing the daughter he has abandoned for a decade perhaps???” one wrote, referencing Cruise and ex-wife Katie Holmes’ daughter, Suri.

Another added, “Making movies ? That’s definitely not a Dad activity. His loss.”

Cruise, notably, became a father when he and then-wife Nicole Kidman adopted daughter Isabella, now 32, and son Connor, now 30, prior to their 2001 split.

He wed Holmes five years post-divorce, with the duo welcoming Suri in April 2006.

The former couple called it quits in 2012 — and Cruise has long been estranged from their now-19-year-old.

Suri grew up in New York City with her mom and graduated from LaGuardia High School in June 2024.

The teen debuted her name change at the time, as she was listed in the ceremony’s program as Suri Noelle.

Noelle, notably, is Holmes’ middle name.

Suri is now a freshman at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania.

Holmes, 46, has given rare insight over the years into raising Suri over the years, telling Elle UK in 2019 that they “kind of grew up together.”

Last year, the “Dawson’s Creek” alum slammed “completely false” claims that Suri’s alleged trust fund from Cruise had kicked in.

“I don’t want a target on my child’s back,” the actress explained in a December 2024 Instagram comment. “It’s dangerous.”
