Tom Cruise, Meryl Streep and Robert Redford hit the red carpet Thursday night in Hollywood to premiere their new political thriller, ‘Lions for Lambs’ — and ET was there!

Tom was accompanied by his wife Katie Holmes, who was there to show her support. Tom told ET, “Its always better with her…she’s exceptional.”

In theaters Nov. 9, ‘Lions for Lambs’ finds Cruise as a charismatic presidential hopeful whose bombshell story for a probing journalist (Streep) could potentially affect the fates of two California college students who were inspired by their professor, Dr. Stephen Malley (Redford), to fight in Afghanistan.

Directed by Redford, the film also stars Derek Luke and Michael Pena.

Go to ET Online to watch a video clip of all the actors on the red carpet! While you’re there, maybe you’d also like to watch ET’s video clips of Tom talking about his wedding day (in Italy, October 23rd) and about the proposal while being in Paris again (October 25th).
