Watch: Suri Cruise, 19, Is Mom Katie Holmes' Twin in Rare on Set Appearance

Suri Cruise is standing on the edge of tomorrow.

The 19-year-old was her mother Katie Holmes’ twin during her visit to the New York City set of the upcoming film trilogy Happy Hours, which Katie is directing and starring in alongside Dawson’s Creek costar Joshua Jackson.

For the occasion, Suri—who has begun going by Suri Noelle, foregoing dad Tom Cruise’s surname—donned khaki cargo pants and a white tank top which she styled with a sleek brown belt, chunky ring and red Pony KO-80 low sneakers.

Katie, meanwhile, had her hair up in a messy bun as she walked alongside her daughter. She was dressed in a long, blue, tie-dyed dress over blue pants and black sneakers.

The set visit marked a rare outing for Suri, who has maintained a low profile throughout her adolescence despite having two Hollywood powerhouses for parents.

In fact, keeping Suri out of the spotlight has been a partly intentional move on Katie’s part. Last year, she explained why she made the decision to address—and disprove—a rumor that alleged the then newly-18 Suri had achieved millionaire status thanks to a trust fund from Tom.

As she put it in a comment to an Instagram user, “In the world today, I don't want a target on my child's back. It's dangerous."

And while Katie has begun to share the occasional anecdote about her daughter as Suri has gotten older—celebrating milestones such as her 2024 high school graduation—the Dawson’s Creek alum will always prioritize the teen’s wellbeing.

"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," Katie, 46, told Glamour in 2023. "I'm very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent. She's an incredible person."

And as Suri embarks on a new chapter as a college student at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania, Katie is just grateful to have a front row seat.

"I remember being this age, this time of beginnings," she told Town & Country in August 2024. "It's exciting to learn about yourself, and I loved that time, so it makes me happy to think about it like that."

She continued, “I’m proud of my daughter. Of course, I will miss the close proximity, but I’m really proud of her and I’m happy."
