Tom Cruise reportedly had a Scientologist friend help him scout for a future wife. According to Marc Headley, an ex-Scientologist - who used to produce promotional films for the religion - said Cruise separated from his then girlfriend, Penelope Cruz, and was desperate to find a wife, so the church sent out a casting call that read:
"There's an upcoming Tom Cruise movie you might get a part in. Come for an audition."
Apparently there were restrictions: You had to be single, pretty and in your twenties. Are you already creeped out? I am.
The first three "choices" were: Jennifer Garner, Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba.
"They went for Jennifer Garner, Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba, in that order. Jennifer and Jessica didn't bite but Scarlett took the bait and came in for an audition. When she arrived and found out it was the Scientology Center in Hollywood, she freaked out and didn't do a tape..."
Reports are Katie Holmes was only the forth choice and that was after they heard her talking about her childhood crush on Tom. "They worked the audition tape on Katie, got her to L.A. and introduced her to Tom. The moment he meets her, he's enthralled with her and he told Miscavige later, 'I knew immediately she was the one.'"
The couple wed in Italy in 2006 and have on child - Suri, their 20-month-old daughter.
