Comparing Stunning Photos of Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise: Mother-Daughter Resemblance at 19 is Striking

Suri Cruise has completed her first year of Carnegie Mellon University – and has grown into the spitting image of her mother, Katie Holmes. 

Finals week was in late April, make up exams were on May 6 and commencement was May 11, a school official told DailyMail.com.

If she chose to stay for summer school, that would have begun on May 12 and is set to end on August 1, added the school’s office.

The 19-year-old star’s sophomore year at Carnegie Mellon University will begin on August 26. First-Year Orientation is scheduled from August 18 to August 23, followed by Convocation on August 22.

Pittsburgh is 371 miles away from Manhattan. 

Meanwhile, Suri’s mother Katie Holmes, 46, looked fantastic when she hit Tod’s cocktail party held at Tod’s Boutique in New York City on Tuesday evening.

And her estranged father Tom Cruise, 62, has been traveling the world to promote his new movie Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. Tom was last seen in New York City on May 18.

Cruise has also made headlines for his reported romance with Ballerina actress Ana de Armas, 37. 

Holmes has landed a sizzling new role on season two of Poker Face.

The actress plays Greta in episode two. 

She is married to Giancarlo Esposito’s Fred, owner of a funeral home where he gets creative with his cremation techniques, putting remains in anything from a pressed vinyl to a lamp to oil paints.

Holmes is known for playing Rachel Wagner in Disturbing Behavior (1998), Rachel Dawes in Batman Begins, Joey Potter in Dawson’s Creek and Erin in Jack and Jill (2011).

Tom has not been photographed with Suri in over a decade. Their last snapshot together in public was in April 2013.

Suri hinted that she is not on good terms with her father as she changed her last name from Cruise to Noelle. Noelle is Katie’s middle name.

It has been hinted by Katie that Suri may be studying acting and dance at Carnegie Mellon. Holmes told Town & Country magazine that after college, her daughter wants to enter showbiz. 

Both Katie and Suri’s father Tom have been in the industry since their early 20s.

The magazine claimed that Suri ‘is said to be interested in pursuing a career in fashion or acting.’ That does not sound off base; Suri starred in a high school production of The Addams Family.

And Katie has already put Suri to work on two of her films.

Suri contributed vocals to songs in two of Holmes’ films – the 2023 drama Rare Objects and 2022 romantic drama Alone Together.

‘I’m proud of my daughter,’ Holmes told Town & Country of her daughter.

‘Of course, I will miss the close proximity, but I’m really proud of her and I’m happy.’

Holmes, speaking with Glamour in April 2023, said that she has sought to encourage Suri’s performing on her projects.

‘I hope she always does something on my films,’ Holmes said. ‘I always ask her.’

Holmes said that ‘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.’
