Tom Cruise has been confirmed as a guest on Jonathan Ross' first post-suspension show which is due to air on UK TV on January 23.
Reports that the Hollywood star was among big names worried about appearing on the programme following the incident in which Jonathan left controversial messages on actor Andrew Sachs' home phone have been strenuously denied.
The Hollywood heavyweight completes a line-up also featuring Stephen Fry and actor and comedian Lee Evans. He will use the appearance to promote his latest movie Valkyrie, about a plot to assassinate Hitler.
