"Tom Cruise has become well-known for many things during his storied Hollywood career, among them his running ability, though his co-star revealed that he 'never' lets his co-stars run alongside him on screen.

Annabelle Wallis, who starred alongside Cruise in the 2017 Universal Pictures remake of The Mummy, opened up about working with Cruise in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter on Thursday.

Wallis earned the rare distinction of running with Cruise on screen, though she revealed it took some convincing.

'I got to run on-screen with him, but he told me no at first. He said, "Nobody runs on-screen [with me]," and I said, ‘But I’m a really good runner,"'Wallis said.

'So, I would time my treadmill so that he’d walk in and see me run. And then he added all these running scenes,' she added.

'So, that was it. It was, like, better than an Oscar. I was so happy! I was so happy that I got to run on-screen with Tom Cruise,' she said.
