Get ready, because there's another Tom Cruise movie on the way!

Which means it's time for his squadron of handlers to trot him out for a fresh round of feverishly orchestrated photo ops while toothless reporters tip-toe around questions about gayness and Xenu.

So, what look did Mr. Katie Holmes adopt as he attended the UK premiere for Rock of Ages this week? Let's put it this way: If this were a Halloween party, Cruise would be dressed like an A-lister...

Back in 1986, America fell in love with a flick called Top Gun, in which a 23-year-old Tom cracked wise, flew fighter jets and made all the ladies crazy. In that sepia-toned era, Cruise had just broken up with a lady named Rebecca DeMornay. He wore aviators just like these as well as jackets that made everybody want to grab a plane and go bomb some commies.

And now he's at it again! We love his look, but we gotta wonder—is it time for Top Gun 2 already?!
