He's known for his high profile action flicks, culminating in a passionate romance with the leading lady. 

And Tom Cruise had undeniable chemistry, albeit a professional one, with his co-star Cobie Smulders as they attended the photo-call in Beijing, China for their new flick, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back

The 54-year-old actor looked super trendy in an all-black ensemble, while the Canadian beauty stunned in a printed summer's dress.

The American star looked every inch the iconic Hollywood heartthrob in his skinny jeans, leather jackets and boots, while his hair casually swept across his forehead.

Cobie, 34, spruced things up with the colourful garment, which plunged down the centre - slightly exposing her bra. 

Boasting billowy sleeves and a flirty crochet hemline, it fell incredibly short on her thighs, flaunting her statuesque frame in a pair of towering strappy heels.

The beauty - best known for How I Met Your Mother - couldn't wipe the smile off her deep red pout as she joined Tom in the promotional trail for the movie, which is getting a simultaneous release in the U.S. and China on October 21.

Earlier on in the day Tom and Cobie took a trip to China's Forbidden City where they were joined by the film's director Ed Zwick and posed for photos and greeted fans.

Tom was casually dressed in a black button down shirt, with the top two buttons left undone and the sleeves rolled up to just below the elbow. 

Cobie brought some color to the photo call with a sensational red and black dress.

The Canadian actress looked lovely in the pretty patterned number that had bold black shoulder straps and a black band at the waist. 

Tom and Cobie showcased their chemistry, laughing and sharing jokes together.

The actress plays Major Susan Turner in the film, heading up the military police unit that Tom's character Jack Reacher used to run.

The plot revolves around an accusation that Jack committed a murder 16 years prior.

'He's alone and he's sort of in his element and then he couples up with me and all hell breaks loose,' Cobie told ET back in June. 'We're on the run for this entire movie.'

The sequel is adapted from the series of novels by Lee Child and the first Jack Reacher film released in 2012 made $200 million.

It was shot almost entirely in New Orleans and the first teaser trailer debuted online on Monday.
