The Truth About Tom Cruise
Cruise was going to become a monk
In 1993, not much was discussed about Scientology and it had not been exposed to the extent that it has today, but Mimi Rogers told Playboy why Tom Cruise ended up becoming an active member of the Church.
She explained “Here’s the real story. Tom was seriously thinking of becoming a monk. At least for that period of time, it looked as though marriage wouldn’t fit into his overall spiritual need.” After becoming aware of Scientology and learning about its teachings, it was more fitting for Tom instead of becoming a monk.
