The moment on stage marked a narrow miss for the 58-year-old, with Cruise also at the same presentation to promote his upcoming black comedy Digger.<\/p>\n

The action blockbuster superstar gave his first look at the new movie, in which he plays a cat-loving billionaire with a beer belly and thinning hair.<\/p>\n

“It took 40 years for me to be able to put on the boots of Digger Rockwell,” Cruise, 63, said before introducing the trailer.<\/p>\n
