UK newspaper The Sun is reporting that Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz will race the reasonably priced car in the next episode of Top Gear. The two movie stars will drive the new the Kia Cee’d around the track promoting their latest movie, called Knight and Day. A show source said:
We’ve had some big names tearing around in our reasonably priced car, but Tom has to be up there as the biggest. And the amazing thing is his people contacted us. Tom and Cameron are over in Britain for the premiere of their new movie Knight and Day. Tom knew we were filming so asked if he could give the old Kia a whirl. Cameron was up for it too so we’re getting two A-list stars for one show. Jeremy Clarkson and the boys couldn’t be happier.
Tom will hope to eclipse Harry Potter star Rupert Grint as the fastest star to lap in the Kia on the BBC2 show. According to the Dailymail, Miss Diaz broke the clutch of the brand new Kia. She was rescued by the Stig, who came to her aid in the new Jaguar XKR Black and Speed Edition.
Tune in next Sunday on BBC Two at 20:00 BST in HD to see their laps and final results.
haha awesome, finally an actuall star in the reasonably priced car
That sucks. I hate it when (like last week with Andy Garcia) we have to eat some stupid movie trailer and listen to boring people who just want some free promo. And I hate scientologists. And Cameron Diaz is not my kind of girl (despite being quite shagadelic).
A star in the reasonably priced car is the most boring part of the show and a great opportunity to do something else.
Did they give Tom a booster seat and boxes on his feet like in Indian Jones to help him drive? :)
I don’t like Tom Cruise at all. I want JayKay doing his best to be first AGAiN.
I really hope that Tom Cruise will set the slowest lap of all time.
I just love Tom Crusie. His movie vanilla sky is the best like him. My brother had a lust live with him. You are just wonderful like no one in universe.
