Tom Cruise and Kate Winslet have never worked together, nor have they even met each other, but the Avatar: The Way of Water actress believes that Cruise is probably fed up with her. Winslet joined the Avatar franchise for its sequel, and as part of her work on the movie she managed to break a quite staggering record for the length of time an actor has held their breath underwater during a production. After going without air for an unbelievable seven minutes and fourteen seconds, Winslet bested the previous record-holder by more than a minute. That previous record holder was none other than Tom Cruise.
Since the press marketing of began, many details about the production of the movie have been unveiled, including Winslet’s impressive breath-holding. However, the actress is well aware that the story had been published in so many places that she believes that Cruise must be “fed up” hearing how she smashed his Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation record.

“These two females are so aligned in their deep desire to keep their individual families safe. They are both powerful, willful creatures who respect their husbands but will not be led by them. They carve their own paths, and they expect to be listened to. They are both physically as capable as one another, and in the world of Pandora, the need for physical ability amongst all tribespeople is not only important — it is crucial. They also need to possess equal strength to their male counterparts, which both these females do. In staggering ways. Working with Zoe was just wonderful. Her commitment to the world of Pandora and being Na’vi is so embedded within her now that it is truly inspiring to be around. It’s as if it’s in her blood now.”
