Self Conscious
When Cruise was a child, he damaged his front teeth during a hockey game, and it caused his to be so self-conscious, he avoided doing photoshoots because of it. In 2002, he decided to get braces as an adult to fix his teeth once and for all, having them removed only to while working on films. Of course, his smile is one of his signature features, so it was all worth it in the end.

Passing Up Iron Man
Did you know that Cruise could have been the face of the Iron Man franchise? He was initially signed on as both the main role and producer, but he ultimately stepped away from both in 2004. He said: “As it was lining up, it just didn’t feel to me like it was gonna work.” We wonder if he regrets the decision, seeing as the films as super popular.
