Actor Tom Cruise has told a German newspaper that he believes aliens exist, while giving an interview about his new film 'War of the Worlds'.
Cruise was speaking to tabloid daily Bild and was asked during the interview if he believed in aliens. He replied: "Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe?"
"Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know," Cruise said in the interview, which was published in German.
The actor, who is a follower of the Scientology church, recently provoked outrage when he criticised the use of anti-depressant drugs during an appearance on a television chat show.
The American Psychiatric Association (APA) have responded to Cruise's negative remarks on the use of anti-depressants, saying: "It is irresponsible for Mr Cruise to use his movie publicity tour to promote his own ideological views and deter people with mental illness from getting the care they need."
