Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are said to be living in fear after receiving death threats from an anti-Scientology group.

Tom is reportedly so concerned that he’s alerted the FBI – and stepped up security for him and his family, wife Katie Holmes and their two-year-old daughter Suri.

The couple now allegedly live at separate locations and drive around in bomb-proof vehicles.

The actor also seems to have provoked a not altogether positive reaction with his portrayal of Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg – who was at the centre of the 1944 plot by Nazi officers to assassinate Adolf Hitler – in the film Valkyrie.

Cruise attended its LA premiere last week, which was targeted by protesters from the anti-Scientology group Anonymous, and has since been forced to step up security.

The star is due to fly to London for the UK premiere on 21 January, but a source told the Daily Mail: ‘Tom is terrified. He doesn’t feel safe anywhere.’

It’s not the first time Cruise has been under attack: in August, threats were made to place anthrax in the air vents of his Los Angeles office, and he’s spent £5million on an underground bunker in the grounds of his estate in Colorado.

Meanwhile, on a lighter note, Tom has revealed he’s after Brad and Angelina’s ‘biggest brood’ title, saying he’d like ten children.

He told The Sun: ‘I want ten children. I love kids. I feel really fortunate to have the teenagers and a two and a half-year-old. It’s a great dynamic.’

He also revealed the 16-year age gap between him and his ‘charming, beautiful’ wife Katie Holmes is not an issue, adding: ‘If I’m worried about anything, it’s if she can keep up with me. I’m very active.’

What nonsense! Cruise is just looking for pity since his "apology PR tour" didn't work as well as he'd hoped. Plus he's part of a cult known for crying wolf - like when the FBI busted them for trying to frame critic Paulette Cooper.

I don't believe an anti scientology group is threatening Tom Cruise; they are probably lying to turn ordinary people against the anonymous group who demonstrate against scientology. Nobody cares about all the people who have died because of scientology. The newspapers should be more critical of anything a scientologist says, not report it as if it was true
