Katie Holmes reveals the story behind the surprise guest star in her latest film 'Alone Together'

The future Dawson's Creek superstar was only 19 years old when she landed the small, but memorable role of Tobey Maguire's high school crush in that critically acclaimed 1997 drama. Reflecting on that movie a quarter-century later, Holmes says she can see how that formative experience with Lee shaped her own creative evolution into a filmmaker. In a full circle moment, Katie shared that Suri also has a special connection to the classic ballad, which was famously covered by Diane Keaton in the 2014's And So It Goes. According to Yahoo, the 16-year-old sings a cover of "Blue Moon" that plays at the beginning of the romantic comedy during the opening credits. "Alone Together" follows two people (played by Holmes and costar Jim Sturgess) in failing relationships who end up at the same Airbnb during the coronavirus lockdown. And Holmes teases that her daughter's singing career won't be a one-and-done affair.

"Diane met my daughter when she was a year old," Holmes reveals, which makes Cruise's rendition of the classic 1934 ballad in Alone Together a sweet full-circle moment. Holmes pulled triple duty for the recently released film, which she wrote, directed and starred in. The proud mom gushed about her daughter's skills and said she gave her plenty of creative space to explore her passion. Holmes, who shares the 16-year-old with ex-husband Tom Cruise, gushed about collaborating with her teen daughter in her cinematic work in an interview with Glamour magazine published Wednesday. Suri lent her vocals to songs featured in two of Holmes’ recent films, the 2022 romantic drama "Alone Together" and the upcoming "Rare Objects," both of which Holmes directed. Speaking of full-circle moments, Alone Together is going into wide release 25 years after Holmes made her feature film debut in Ang Lee's The Ice Storm.

"That shoot was so exciting for me — it was my first job," she told Yahoo. "During this time of uncertainty, remembering to be creative and positive has been something I have tried to keep at the forefront of my mind," she wrote in an essay for Vogue Australia. "Throughout this experience the through-line for me has been a heightened awareness of each moment and really taking it in and appreciating it."

Katie added that Suri's singing will also be featured in her upcoming flick Rare Objects, which she shot last year, though "other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school." So would Holmes and Sturgess reunite for a movie musical of their own? "I would be honored." And, of course, that film would have to include her daughter performing "Blue Moon" on-camera.

In 2021, the mom posted a few black-and-white throwback photos of her pride and joy as she turned 15. The same year, she also shared a photo of the back of Suri's head to celebrate her 14th birthday. "Every age that my child has been and my age at that time has been a good match. We kind of grew up together." In 2019, she spoke about "growing up" with her daughter in an interview with Elle UK.

"She actually did sing in Rare Objects, which is the film we did last fall," the director says of her recently completed third feature, a period drama based on the 2016 bestseller by Kathleen Tessaro. "Other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school," Holmes says, laughing. The actor is notoriously private and only rarely shares photos of Suri, so her fans might be surprised to hear that the teenager sings in her new film.

Katie Holmes recently shared how proud she is of her daughter Suri Cruise, who shows off her vocal skills in the opening credits of Holmes' new movie, "Alone Together." "What has been really important for me with my daughter, because she was so visible at a young age, is I really like to protect her," Holmes said. "I’m very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent. She’s an incredible person." Holmes, who is famously private about her daughter, also spoke about her protectiveness as a mother. "She's very, very talented," Holmes gushed of the daughter she shares with ex Tom Cruise.

I ran into Katie Holmes last night at Newel Antiques on East 61st St. where a little reception was thrown for “Rare Objects” by owner Jake Baer. It’s the most charming antiques store in New York, and they were happy to identify with cards all their rare objects that were used in the film. The great set decorator Beth Kushnick invited me, along with Jill Brooke (flowerpowerdaily.com) so we could see where she gets her amazing ideas. I didn’t realize until I got there that Katie would be there, too, along with some of the cast and production people.

Her long brown hair and gorgeous smile aren’t the only things Katie Holmes and ex Tom Cruise passed down to their lookalike daughter Suri Cruise. The 16-year-old also got a big dose of talent from her famous parents. Recently, Suri officially made her big-screen debut in an appearance in Alone Together, a romantic comedy that Holmes wrote, directed, and starred in.

But as it turns out, this isn’t the first time Suri has contributed to one of her mom's projects. For her part, Suri has largely stayed out of the public spotlight since entering her teenage years. "Alone Together" isn't the first film in which Suri has showcased her voice. Holmes said that her daughter also sang in the film "Rare Objects," a period drama based on the novel by author Kathleen Tessaro, which Holmes also directed. It follows a man and woman fleeing New York City during the first wave of the pandemic in 2020.

In 2021, Holmes shared a trio of rare photos of Suri taken throughout the years on Instagram to mark her 15th birthday. Holmes also opened up about bonding with Suri during the coronavirus pandemic in a November 2020 cover story for Vogue Australia. Katie Holmes had nothing but praise for her daughter Suri's singing in the new film "Alone Together," which was directed by and stars Holmes. "I hope she always does something on my films. I always ask her," Holmes told the magazine. "But both of those experiences came out of the same sense of what I love about our industry, which is, you have these projects and you become a family with people." "That shoot was so exciting for me — it was my first job," she recalls.

Alone Together was in part inspired the 1987 comedy Baby Boom, which starred Diane Keaton. “Diane met my daughter when she was a year old," Holmes told Yahoo Entertainment of Keaton, who sang “Blue Moon” in the 2014 Rob Reiner film And So It Goes. Explaining her decision to include Suri—who she shares with ex-husband Tom Cruise—in the project, Katie told Yahoo! Entertainment, "I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her."
