Tom Cruise is never short on energy when it comes to his late night appearances, so it’s not a shock that he’s game for James Corden’s “Role Call” — recreating essentially every role he’s ever had in his career in no particular order. For a guy pushing 60, he’s really got the energy of several other people that may or may not have been bombed in a volcano by a space jet. He shows it off next to Corden here and he seems prepared to make a bit of fool of himself by going pretty deep in his catalog.
Yeah, Mission: Impossible is well represented and so are the iconic roles from Cruise’s early career, but then he whips out Cocktail, Rock of Ages, and does the funniest recreation of Born On The Fourth Of July that you’ll likely see unless you pop in Forrest Gump. You also have to like his updated take on Interview With A Vampire, rocking a horrible wig that manages to last until halfway into his recreation of A Few Good Men.
The real treat is when Cuba Gooding Jr. shows up, likely right after whatever craziness he just did on American Horror Story, and pushes Corden aside to bring back his Oscar-winning performance from Jerry Maguire. It might just be there to provide a breather, but it’s nice to see Gooding show up. He’s proven to be a lot of fun in recent years and was a lot of fun during his own appearance on The Late Late Show.
