Holmes says love for Cruise the real deal 'Happy' Holmes says her love for Cruise is real Tue May 31, 2005 11:50 AM ET TOKYO (Reuters) - One of Hollywood's hottest couples may be having difficulty persuading the public their romance is genuine, but actress Katie Holmes says her love for screen star Tom Cruise is real. "I couldn't be happier. I'm so happy," Holmes said on her way into the world premiere of her latest movie "Batman Begins." "He's the most amazing man in the whole world," she told Reuters in Tokyo on Tuesday. Cruise, 42, has also made no secret of his interest in the 26-year-old, until recently best known for her role in the TV series "Dawson's Creek." In a recent interview with U.S. talkshow host Oprah Winfrey, Cruise shed his cool image to enthuse about the relationship, prompting commentators to ask whether it was a publicity stunt aimed at promoting movies both stars were appearing in. People magazine recently ran an unscientific poll showing that nearly two thirds of those questioned believed the Cruise-Holmes relationship, which became public in late April, was a stunt. Cruise is starring in Steven Spielberg's "War of the Worlds," due for release in June. Cruise's love life is a mainstay of celebrity gossip. He and Nicole Kidman divorced in 2001 and he dated Spanish actress Penelope Cruz until last year. Holmes said she was proud to be appearing in "Batman Begins," directed by Christopher Nolan and also starring veteran actor Morgan Freeman. Freeman, who has often preferred roles in serious dramas in recent years and won an Oscar for his supporting role in "Million Dollar Baby," said he thought the time was right for him to take on a more commercial production. "I haven't been asked to play in any of the major blockbuster types of movie -- Batman, Superman, Spiderman, Star Wars, any of that," Freeman said in Tokyo. "Alec Guinness, who was one of England's most admired and able character actors, played Obi-wan Kenobi in Star Wars. He said he made more money off that movie than he'd made in all the movies he'd made prior to that. So I thought okay ... my shot." Link to article More TomKat stuff..
