The couple were captured leaning their forehead against each other fuelling relationship rumours, despite Atwell being engaged to music producer Ned Wolfgang Kelly.
Atwell, who starred in Agent Carter, has denied the allegations claiming that Cruise is more like a âuncleâ to her.
She told The Independent: âWhy are things being assumed or projected onto me about my relationship with my work colleague and boss?
âItâs involving people in my actual life, my personal life, who have to be on the receiving end of that. It becomes invasive.â
An insider informed People that the actors were having dinner with their representatives to "discuss potential collaborations down the line" when they were first spotted on a night out in London in February.
But who has Cruise and Atwell previously dated? Hereâs a breakdown.
Who has Tom Cruise previously dated?
Mimi Rogers
The pair were married for three years

Cruise married Full Body Massage actress Mimi Rogers in May 1987, a year after they reportedly first met. The marriage only lasted three years.
âIâd never been in love before. Since Iâve been with her, itâs opened me up a lot. I think itâs helped me be a better actor,â he told Rolling Stone just before splitting.
âWe live a lot of life together. We share everything. ⌠Sheâs my best friend.â
Nicole Kidman

Cruise went into another marriage soon after his first marriage ended.
He married Nicole Kidman in 1990 after meeting while collaborating on Days of Thunder.
The pair adopted two children Isabella Jane (born 1992) and Connor Antony (born 1995) before their infamous divorce in 2001.
Katie Holmes

Despite their ultimate breakup, the former pair, affectionately known as TomKat, are still among the most recognisable couples of the mid-2000s.
When Cruise announced his love for Holmes on television in 2005, his emotions were so intense that he jumped up and down on a couch.
The pair have a daughter, who was born in 2006, just months before they were married in Italy.
Holmes filed for divorce in 2012 for reasons unknown.
Cher
Cher once said Cruise was one of her âtop five loversâ

Cruise dated Cher briefly in 1985 after meeting at Madonna and Sean Pennâs wedding.
Talking about their meeting with Event, she said: âThen a bunch of people who were dyslexic were invited to the White House, and Tom and I are both dyslexic.
âWe didnât go out till way later, but there definitely was a connection there.â
Cher had previously told Oprah Winfrey that Tom could have been a âgreat big romanceâ if they hadn't had to split up because of their hectic schedules, and she had previously told TV host James Corden that he was one of her âtop five loversâ.â
PenĂŠlope Cruz

The Vanilla Sky co-stars first appeared on the red carpet at the August 2001 premiere of Captain Corelli's Mandolin, shortly after Cruise and Kidman's divorce.
Both disputed that their romance was the cause of Cruise and Kidman's breakup, and by 2004, they parted ways.
Nazanin Boniadi
Nazanin is a member of Scientology just like Cruise
General Hospital actress and a member of Scientology, Boniadi reportedly dated Cruise from November 2004 to January 2005.

An insider then told the magazine that the couple had broken up three months later. âThey weren't gelling and realized they weren't romantically compatible. There's no bad blood between them. They just had different ideas of what their relationship was going to be.â
Who has Hayley Atwell previously dated?
Ned Wolfgang Kelly
Atwell was first linked to fiancĂŠ songwriter and composer Ned Wolfgang Kelly in early 2022, when they posed for photos together at an event in London.
The couple got engaged a year later in Venice.
âIâd never had any interest in getting married⌠until I met this extraordinary woman,â wrote Kelly on a social media post, announcing their engagement at the time.
Gabriel Bisset-Smith
Misfits actor Gabriel Bisset-Smith and Atwellâs romance blossomed in 2009 after reportedly meeting at drama school.
The pair were captured sharing intimate moments in public before eventually parting ways in 2012.
Evan Jones
In 2014, Hayley Atwell and 8 Mile actor Evan Jones reportedly met at a party hosted by a mutual friend in London, and their brief romance began.
The couple, who appeared to be meant to be, soon became inseparable and went on many events and trips together.
Their love story took them through many incredible experiences, such as visiting Paris, France, where they shared a romantic trip overlooking the Eiffel Tower.
Their story came to a conclusion in 2015.
Stephen Merchant
Atwell was romantically linked with Stephen Merchant in 2013
PA
Hayley Atwell met fellow British comedian and actor Stephen Merchant during a comedy gig in Los Angeles at the beginning of 2013, and the two became romantically linked.
The couple enjoyed a number of special events, including parties and premieres, and may have become close because of their love of the performing arts. Later that year, though, the two parted ways as their love finally cooled off.
