Katie Holmes' Daughter Suri Sings 'Blue Moon' Cover in New Movie: 'I Let Her Do Her Thing'

Holmes wrote, directed and stars in Alone Together , which features a special voice appearance by Suri

Katie Holmes is endlessly proud of her little girl.

During a discussion about her new film Alone Together , the Dawson's Creek alum, 43, told Yahoo! Entertainment that she wanted "the highest level of talent" for her new film, which is how daughter Suri became involved.

Holmes shares that she asked her 16-year-old daughter to record the cover of "Blue Moon" that appears in the film's opening credits. "I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her!"

"She's very, very talented. She said she would do it and she recorded it, and I let her do her thing," Holmes — who wrote, directed and stars in the film — says. "That's the way I direct in general: It's like, 'This is what I think we all want — go do your thing.' "

That's not the only project Suri is involved in, either. "She actually did sing in Rare Objects , which is the film we did last fall," Holmes says, referring to the period drama based on the 2016 bestseller by Kathleen Tessaro.

While Suri's having fun participating in her mom's projects, she's not launching a singing career quite yet. "Other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school," Holmes says, laughing.

Holmes also explains that she and Suri have a special connection to "Blue Moon." Holmes was inspired to write Alone Together , in part, by the 1987 Diane Keaton comedy Baby Boom . Keaton sings "Blue Moon" in the 2014 Rob Reiner film, And So It Goes .

"Diane met my daughter when she was a year old," Holmes tells Yahoo! Entertainment, noting that it made her daughter singing the classic 1934 ballad in her film a full-circle moment for Holmes, a devoted Keaton fan.

In November 2020, Holmes wrote a piece for Vogue Australia's November issue about how the COVID-19 pandemic — which Alone Together focuses on — allowed for more introspection and quality time with her daughter.

"Hobbies such as sewing, painting and writing became new hallmarks of satisfaction and having had time at home to just be. To listen," she wrote at the time. "To live for a moment in time without the pressure of results and instead appreciate the natural rhythms of mother and daughter was the most precious gift ."

The Batman Begins actress went on to recall how she reinforced her mantra to be more present in her daily life during isolation.

"During this time of uncertainty, remembering to be creative and positive has been something I have tried to keep at the forefront of my mind," said Holmes. "Throughout this experience the through-line for me has been a heightened awareness of each moment and really taking it in and appreciating it."

Katie Holmes reveals daughter Suri sings in new movie: ‘She’s very, very talented’

Is Suri Cruise considering a musical career? Not quite, but the daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise is indeed honing her singing chops with the help of her mom.

In a new interview with Yahoo! Entertainment , Holmes reveals that her 16-year-old daughter recorded a cover of the classic song "Blue Moon" for the opening credits of Holmes' latest film, "Alone Together."

“I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her! She’s very, very talented,” the 43-year-old explained.

Holmes pulled triple duty for the recently released film, which she wrote, directed and starred in. The proud mom gushed about her daughter's skills and said she gave her plenty of creative space to explore her passion.

“She said she would do it and she recorded it, and I let her do her thing,” she said. “That’s the way I direct in general: It’s like, ‘This is what I think we all want — go do your thing.'"

Holmes, who recently explained why there will not be a reboot of her classic TV show “Dawson’s Creek,” said she and Suri are particularly fond of the song "Blue Moon" for a few reasons. For starters, Diane Keaton's 1987 film "Baby Boom" was one of the influences on "Alone Together," and Keaton happened to cover the song in the 2014 film "And So It Goes."

“Diane met my daughter when she was a year old,” Holmes explained.

The actor is notoriously private and only rarely shares photos of Suri, so her fans might be surprised to hear that the teenager sings in her new film. But as it turns out, this isn’t the first time Suri has contributed to one of her mom's projects.

“She actually did sing in 'Rare Objects,' which is the film we did last fall,” Holmes said. That movie has yet to be released.

Suri clearly has a budding interest in music, but Holmes is very much focused on giving her daughter a normal childhood.

“Other than that, she’s a 16-year-old kid doing high school,” she said with a laugh.

Over the years, Holmes has sporadically shared photos of her daughter. She posted a video of the teenager running and jumping in an empty street in 2020.

The same year, she also shared a photo of the back of Suri's head to celebrate her 14th birthday.

In 2021, the mom posted a few black-and-white throwback photos of her pride and joy as she turned 15.

“Happy 15th Birthday Sweetheart! I love you!!!!!!!!” she captioned the post. “I can’t believe you are already 15!”

Katie Holmes Explains Why She Featured Her 16-Year-Old Daughter, Suri Cruise, in Her New Movie

By Emily Tannenbaum

Katie Holmes was looking for the “highest level of talent” for her COVID-era Airbnb rom-com, Alone Together . That's why she reached out to her very own daughter , 16-year-old Suri Cruise .

Holmes , who wrote, directed, and starred in the film, brought in Suri to record a cover of “Blue Moon” for the opening credits. “I always want the highest level of talent,” Holmes told Yahoo Entertainment . “So I asked her! She's very, very talented. She said she would do it and she recorded it, and I let her do her thing. That's the way I direct in general: It's like, ‘This is what I think we all want—go do your thing.’”

The song holds significant sentimental value for the mother-daughter pair. According to Holmes, she was inspired by Diane Keaton's own rendition of “Blue Moon” for Rob Reiner's 2014 film And So It Goes . “Diane met my daughter when she was a year old,” Holmes told Yahoo.

This isn't the first time Suri has been featured in one of her mother's films. “She actually did sing in Rare Objects , which is the film we did last fall,” the proud mom shared. “Other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school.”

This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from.

Katie Holmes and her former husband Tom Cruise welcomed Suri in 2006; six years later, the Dawson's Creek star was awarded primary custody . “I like to keep her out of my interviews, but I will say that this time of quarantine has been such a lesson,” she said during an interview with The Daily Telegraph back in 2020. “Just really looking at everything you have and celebrating the simplicity of making dinner and [spending] that time together.”

As Suri gets older, it seems Holmes is becoming more comfortable gushing about her daughter to the press. “I love her so much. My biggest goal has always been to nurture her into her individuality,” she said in an interview with InStyle . “To make sure she is 100% herself and strong, confident, and able. And to know it. She came out very strong—she's always been a strong personality.”

Katie Holmes Reveals Her "Very Talented" Daughter, Suri, Sings in Her New Film

Published on 7/30/2022 at 3:45 PM

Suri Cruise is stepping into the spotlight. In a July 26 interview with Yahoo! Entertainment , Katie Holmes revealed her daughter, Suri, whom she shares with Tom Cruise, sings in the actor's new film, "Alone Together."

"I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her," Holmes said, sharing that Suri sings a cover of "Blue Moon" that appears in the opening credits of "Alone Together," a movie about two strangers forced to live together during the first weeks of Covid-19 lockdowns. Holmes wrote, directed, and stars in the film. "Blue Moon," originally written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1934, was famously covered by Diane Keaton in the 2014 movie "And So It Goes," and Holmes added that Suri has a connection to the song because Keaton "met my daughter when she was a year old." It also doesn't hurt that Holmes has long been a fan of the "Baby Boom" actor.

She also revealed that 16-year-old Suri sang in her film "Rare Objects," which came out last fall, and praised her daughter's vocal prowess. "She's very, very talented," Holmes said. "She said she would do it, and she recorded it — and I let her do her thing. That's the way I direct in general: it's like, 'This is what I think we all want — go do your thing.'" Still, she emphasized that Suri still lives an ordinary life despite her Hollywood credentials, adding that "other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school."

Over the years, Holmes has kept her private life quiet, but in 2019, she opened up to Elle UK about why she's glad she became a mom in her 20s. "It's been nice that our ages fit," she told the publication. "How do I put this? Every age that my child has been and my age at that time has been a good match. We kind of grew up together."

And now it seems they might just take Hollywood by storm together, too.

Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes' daughter Suri makes on-screen singing debut

WASHINGTON: Hollywood stars Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' daughter, Suri Cruise, made her on-screen singing debut with the newly released movie 'Alone Together', which has been directed by her mother.

According to Fox News, in an interview with an entertainment news outlet, Holmes said, "I always want the highest level of talent. So, I asked her. She's very, very talented. She said she would do it, and she recorded it, and I let her do her thing. That's the way I direct in general. It's like, 'This is what I think we all want -- go do your thing.'"

In 'Alone Together', Suri has sung a cover of 'Blue Moon', which plays during the opening credits of the film. Holmes told the outlet this will not be her daughter's only on-screen singing gig.

"She actually did sing in 'Rare Objects,' which is the film we did last fall. Other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school," Holmes explained.

Cruise and Holmes were married from 2006 to 2012. Suri is their only child together, and Suri's parents opted to keep her out of the public eye for the majority of her childhood, reported Fox News.

A romantic comedy set during the coronavirus pandemic, 'Alone Together' has been written and directed by Holmes, also starring Jim Sturgess.

The movie follows a man and woman fleeing New York City during the first wave of the pandemic in 2020. The duo ends up booking the same Airbnb and ultimately decide to stay at the upstate property together.

As per Fox News, Sturgess praised Holmes' directing style and shared that she gives actors wide latitude when they are in front of the camera. "She gives you this incredible space between action and cut," Sturgess said of his co-star.

He added, "She very rarely shouted, 'Cut!' actually. You'd think the scene had ended and she just kind of left it hanging. I love that she was always searching for those little nuggets of authenticity." (ANI)

In a July interview with Yahoo! Entertainment , the Dawson's Creek actress opened up about the 16 year old singing in the film she wrote, directed and starred in. According to Katie, Suri's cover of Frank Sinatra 's " Blue Moon " made it in the movie when she was searching for powerful vocals and one name came to mind.

"Well, I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her," she told the outlet . "She's very talented. She said she would do it and she recorded it, and I let her do her thing. That's the way I direct in general. It's like, 'This is what I think we all want and then go do your thing.'"

Reacting to Suri's singing, it seemed like fans weren't expecting to hear that from her. Many quickly turned to YouTube to share their supportive thoughts.

"Of course Katie Holmes' daughter would be so talented! Good on you, Suri!" one viewer wrote in the comments section. "I cannot stop playing this!! She sounds so wonderful and has so much control in her voice. I'm so impressed," another added. "Wow! She sings soooo well! Way to go! Hope we’ll [hear] more songs from her!" one more fan replied.

Luckily, this is only the beginning for Suri's musical career. Katie noted her daughter also lent her voice for the upcoming movie Rare Objects , premiering later this fall. But as the two continue navigating both their professional and personal lives, it's clear Katie and Suri's bond spans way deeper than just being mother and daughter.

“If Katie’s feeling stressed or down, Suri’s very compassionate and loving," a source told Us Weekly about the duo's relationship in April 2020 . "Katie feels like her daughter really is her little angel … It’s no exaggeration to say that Suri and Katie have saved each other. They really are wonderful together.”

Katie Holmes is a true mama bear! Inside the latest issue of Glamour magazine , the 44-year-old opens up about raising her and Tom Cruise's 16-year-old daughter, Suri Cruise.

When speaking about being a mother of a teenager, the Dawson's Creek alum gives rare insight on the key part of her role. 

"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," she tells the magazine. "I’m very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent. She’s an incredible person."

Holmes is about to celebrate Suri's 17th birthday on April 18, and couldn't be prouder of her daughter. The teenager is already making a name for herself and carving out a little bit of a path in entertainment, thanks to her mother. Suri sings a cover of "Blue Moon" in Holmes' film, Alone Together , and she can also be heard in Holmes' other project,  Rare Objects .

When it comes to working with her daughter, Holmes says that she is happy to create the opportunity.

"I hope she always does something on my films," she gushes. "I always ask her. But both of those experiences came out of the same sense of what I love about our industry, which is, you have these projects and you become a family with people. And it's this safe, beautiful, creative space. So it comes out of love for me to include someone who I love dearly. That's how I like to work. I like to have that kind of feeling. It was very meaningful to me to have her there, because she's my heart."

And when it comes to one regret she has about raising her daughter, it has to do with fashion -- and not saving some of her iconic 90s' pieces for her.

"I think the ’90s style is exactly back. Makes me feel old," Holmes admits. "We lived through that already. My mom says she should have saved things. I should have saved things."
