It had been reported that Tom received a personal apology from a high ranking German official for trying to block the filming of the German war epic at Berlin memorial sites. The rumour was unwittingly started by Cruise’s co-star Kenneth Branagh in an interview with Entertainmentwise! “All that nonsense about the Germans not wanting Tom Cruise there was largely exaggerated. And the man that led much of the noise [against the film] rang up and said: ‘I’ve just read the script, it's fantastic. I'm sorry.” Spin? In a Tom Cruise story? Surely not!
