What Tom Cruise film's ad said "Everybody Runs"?
Answer
Minority Report
Answer
Minority Report
The Tom Cruise film whose advertising used the line “Everybody Runs” was *Minority Report*.
Released in 2002, the science-fiction thriller was directed by Steven Spielberg and adapted from Philip K. Dick’s 1956 short story “The Minority Report.” Cruise plays John Anderton, chief of Washington, D.C.’s PreCrime division, which arrests people before they commit murders based on visions from three psychic “precogs.”
The tagline appeared prominently in the film’s marketing, often alongside “June 21,” its U.S. release date. It captured both the movie’s chase-driven plot and Anderton’s desperate flight after the PreCrime system predicts that he will commit a murder. The phrase also became memorable because Cruise is repeatedly shown running through futuristic streets, shopping centers, and transit systems.
A common mix-up is confusing the advertising slogan with dialogue from the film. “Everybody runs, Fletch” is also spoken by Anderton during a scene, reinforcing the connection, but the quiz asks for the movie promoted by the ad—not a separate Cruise film or a title named after the slogan.
