Showgirls star Gina Gershon reveals she almost BROKE Tom Cruise's nose when he tickled her during sex scene for 1988 classic Cocktail
Gina Gershon has detailed the shocking moment she almost broke Tom Cruise 's nose when he tickled her during a sex scene. The Showgirls star, 63, starred alongside the Mission: Impossible star, 62, on the 1988 classic Cocktail and filmed her very first love scene with him. However, things didn't go exactly to plan as Gina - who was in her 20s at the time - was left fearing her Hollywood career was over when she injured megastar Tom. She recalled how Tom was meant to be under the covers before popping up during the raunchy scene, but she had warned him in advance not to tickle her because she is very ticklish. However, Tom accidentally tickled her while grabbing her waist, leading to her unintentionally lashing out and nearly breaking his nose She told The Guardian: 'Right before the take, he was down there and grabbed my waist in a tickly, sweet manner, I didn't mean to, but I had a kneejerk reaction right into his nose. 'It was full of blood, I thought: ''I just broke Tom Cruise's nose, I will never work in Hollywood again''. 'I was mortified because I really kicked him good, I didn't mean to.' Though she initially feared for her career, Gina said 'gentleman' Tom insisted it was his fault because she had warned him in advance and was very 'kind and sweet' with her. Despite the mishap, Gina said she is still glad that she filmed her first ever sex scene with Tom, insisting he was very 'protective' of her and made sure to put her at ease. Cocktail followed Tom's character Brian Flanagan, who is fresh off a stint in the army and is pursuing a business degree while working as a bartender in Manhattan. He learns the tricks of the trade from his business partner Doug (Bryan Brown) before discovering his friend has slept with his romantic interest Coral (Gina). Brian then moves to Jamaica where he meets Jordan (Elisabeth Shue) and they fall in love, while he continues to battle challenges as he tries to pursue his original dream. While the film was panned by critics, it earned $78.2million domestic ($207.6million in 2024 when adjusted for inflation) and $171.5million worldwide ($455.4 million in 2024), taking the ninth spot on the year-end box office top 10. In another insight into her career, Gina also recently revealed her agents advised her against taking a lesbian role in the 1996 neo-noir crime thriller Bound. Gina, 62, played a lesbian ex-cop who was in a romantic relationship with Jennifer Tilly's character in the Wachowskis-directed film. Speaking on the It Happened In Hollywood podcast, Gina said her agents told her not to play Corky - even telling her the role kill would her chances at a successful acting career. But, impressed by the script and the the filmmakers, Gina went against their advice and joined the cast anyway. She detailed: 'It was a great script and I could tell they were incredible directors, but my agents were like, "We will not let you do this movie. You are ruining your career. We will not be able to let you represent. You will never work again."' Undeterred by their words, Gina shared: 'I just said, "Oh, well, I guess if you can't represent me, I'll go somewhere else." You know? No hard feelings.' The Hollywood actress also took issue with the fact the film was being referred to merely as a 'lesbian movie' - when it spoke to larger issues. 'I said, first of all, it's so shortsighted to say, "Oh, this is a lesbian movie." I mean, they happen to be lesbians,' she said. 'They happen to be into women, but it's really a movie about trust. 'There's a bigger issue, and I really hated that, I thought that was so small-minded and shortsighted. And if that's what we were up against, I was in.'
