TOM Cruise is rumoured to be considering buying George Clooney's famous Lake Como mansion.

The actor is said to be interested in purchasing the gorgeous waterfront property as it is reported that George is considering a move to the South of Italy.

According to Italian newspaper Giornale dell'Umbria, the two A-Listers are trying to strike up a deal for the valuable Villa Oleandra.

It has been rumoured that newly single Tom was initially interested in snapping up the grand medieval Castle of Lions in Deruta, Italy. However, according to reports George has been trying to convince the Rock of Ages star to buy his property instead.

The Hollywood heartthrob is said to be considering a move to the South of Italy, where he is looking to set up a "home" in the province of Salerno. With a movie star budget to spend, it is perhaps unsurprising that the 51-year-old is said to have shown interest in the Arechi castle, an imposing fortress-like building overlooking the sea.

George's girlfriend Stacy Keibler is allegedly not keen on the beautiful Lake Como region, where her A-List beau has been spending his downtime for more than a decade and entertained friends including Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

George and Stacy were spotted going for a boat ride in on the famous lake just a few days ago. It is believed to be the blonde beauty's second visit to the region. But despite loo! king happy and relaxed as the couple spent time with friends, Stacy is said to be pushing George towards leaving the area.

Meanwhile, Tom enjoyed a fun day out at Disney World in Florida with daughter Suri Cruise yesterday.

Following his split from estranged wife Katie Holmes who has reportedly retained primary custody of the little girl, the actor is ensuring that he has "meaningful" contact with the six-year-old.

And he certainly looked like the proud papa as he held Suris hand while they navigated the Magic Kingdom.

Suri was dressed in an Ariel costume and her aunt, Cass Mapother, was also there for the trip.

"Suri looked like she was in heaven," an onlooker told People magazine.

"It was really cute. She was walking around like she owned the place, having the time of her life, and Tom, who looked really handsome was talking to her, was really engaging with her."
