Getting it cracking! Tom Cruise gets messy in a game of egg

He may be a Hollywood action hero but Tom Cruise certainly let his guard down for late night TV on Friday.
The 50-year-old actor played a game of egg roulette with Jimmy Fallon and lost.
Tom picked from an assortment of raw and boiled eggs for the gag, and found out soon in the game things were about to get really messy.

Tom and Jimmy took turns picking from a carton holding eight boiled eggs and four raw eggs and smashed their chosen egg against their head. The game ends when someone breaks two raw eggs on their head and loses.
Tom went first and promptly smashed a raw egg against his hair, prompting Fallon to double over in laughter.
'I told you I didn't have a good feeling about this, man,' Tom told Jimmy with a smile.
Jimmy went next and picked a hard-boiled egg.
Tom on his second pick again chose a raw egg and broke it against his head.

It wasn't the first time that Tom and Jimmy squared off.
The two went eye-to-eye last December in a Water War game, which is based on the card game War and includes lots of water.
The winner of each hand got to douse his opponent with a cup of water and the first to run out of cups won the right to blast the loser with a toy water cannon.
Tom won and thoroughly drenched Jimmy.
The actor has been making the talk show circuit lately to promote his new sci-film Oblivion.

He visited Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday night and also took part in a skit.
Kimmel gave Cruise an acting challenge by having him deliver ridiculous lines in a dramatic overtone.
'Is there a way to get the soup and the salad?' Tom asked as he was illuminated on the couch with a spotlight.
The Top Gun actor ended the dramatic query with his patented muscle-flurrying jaw clench.
In his new movie, Tom plays Jack Harper, a former Marine commander, in the sci-fi flick set in a not-too-distant future of 2073.

Jack is stationed on a fallen Earth following an alien invasion 60 years earlier.
The actor's character comes across an enigmatic stranger played by Olga Kurylenko who crash lands in a spacecraft and Jack is forced to question what he knows about Earth's near-destruction and life as he knows it.
The film also features British star Andrea Riseborough, Melissa Leo and Morgan Freeman.
Oblivion opens on April 19.
