Tom Cruise wears another grey jumper on Late Show... as New York premiere of Jack Reacher is cancelled

Appearing on David Letterman's show really brings out the grey in Tom Cruise after he wore another grey

Following his appearance on the show in a grey turtle neck this time last year, it appears it is his shade of choice when appearing on the Late Show.

While some of his contemporaries often wear smart suits for their appearance, Tom has been going for a more laidback look in recent weeks, often wearing grey jumpers and white shirts.

His appearance on Letterman comes after the New York premiere of Jack Reacher was cancelled out of respect to the victims and families of the Newtown, Connecticut shooting last week.

A statement from the Film Society of Lincoln Center said: 'Out of respect for the families who lost loved ones in Newtown, Connecticut, we are postponing tonight's event.

'We extend our love and condolences to you. Our community grieves with yours.'

However, the film is still expected to be released in US cinemas on December 21.

The film stars Cruise as Jack Reacher, a former military police officer and drifter who is drafted in to help after a sniper kills five people in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The movie is adapted from Lee Child's 2005 novel One Shot.

The actor defended his casting in the role after some fans of the book claimed he was too short.

In the novel, the character is 6ft 5in and weighs over 200lbs.

At the London premiere last week, Cruise told Sky News: '(His size is) a characteristic and not his character.

'He's an analogue character in a digital age. It's not just his brute force which is represented in the film but his intellect and wit.

'The audience are going to be surprised by how much they're going to laugh and enjoy the feel of the movie.'

Meanwhile, Cruise confirmed he would spending Christmas with his daughter Suri - his first festive holiday since divorcing ex-wife Katie Holmes earlier this year.

He said: 'We have got lots of very special things planned. We are all going to be together. I am looking forward to it.'

Suri also spent Thanksgiving with Tom in London, where he is based while filming All You Need Is Kill.
