Tom Cruise over his height during a monologue at the Directors Guild Of America Awards.The comedian and producer hosted the ceremony on Saturday (February 18), where he praised Top Gun: Maverick for concealing Cruise’s 5 foot 7 height.“The visual effects in [Top Gun:] Maverick were so top-notch I couldn’t even see the stack of phone books Tom Cruise sat on to reach the flight controls,” Apatow said.“That’s why he’s always jumping out of tall buildings because you can’t tell how short he is when he’s in a 100-storey building. That’s why when he’s standing on a wing of an airplane he’s always alone, he doesn’t want anyone there next to him for scale.”Judd Apatow kills as host at the DGAAwards. No one was off limits including the Daniels and most notably, Tom Cruise.
