Cruise initially gave Fanning a Motorola Razr for her 11th birthday while they were filming the 2005 sci-fi thriller together.

Dakota Fanning has revealed the one date every year that Tom Cruise never forgets: her birthday!

During a recent interview for Harper’s Bazaar with her Ripley co-star Andrew Scott, the actress shared that she got her first mobile phone as a gift from the Top Gun: Maverick star.

After Scott guessed the correct answer to “Who gave Dakota her first cellphone?” saying, “OK, well it’s going to be some Hollywood icon … Tom Cruise,” Fanning confirmed that the actor gifted her a Motorola Razr for her 11th birthday while they were filming 2005’s War of the Worlds together.

“Oh, my God, I was so excited,” the Twilight actress recalled, before noting that she “didn’t have anybody to call or text at that time,” so she wasn’t exactly sure how useful the present was for her.

“You know, I was 11,” she quipped. “But I loved having it. I loved it. I felt so cool.”

The birthday presents didn’t stop with the memorable flip phone either, as Fanning said she still gets gifts from the Mission: Impossible actor.

“Tom sends me a birthday gift every year, and has since that birthday,” the Equalizer 3 actress explained, noting that the latest one arrived on her 30th birthday earlier in April.

Scott proceeded to joke, “So thoughtful. Really, really nice. He’s never given me anything.”

Cruise isn’t the only Hollywood star to give Dakota a present. Earlier this month, during Elle magazine’s “Ask Me Anything” video series, Fanning shared that her Dreamer co-star Kurt Russell gave her a horse once.
