She’ll give me a thumbs up or something. If someone stands in her way, Kate was making a film once and the director stood in front.

Well, with Tom all geared up to set screens on fire with his latest action comedy Knight and Day which will hit cinemas on July 9, we surely know who to compliment for his performance.
