When the sequel to the 1986 Tom Cruise-led film Top Gun was announced for release in 2022, the moment felt long overdue for fans of the original movie. A follow-up to the flick had been rumored to be in development as far back as 2010, though Cruise was allegedly offered sequel opportunities even earlier. This gave fans who consider Top Gun to be in the upper tier of Cruise's acting catalog hope that there would be an eventual green light given for a return to the world of his character, Lieutenant Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, once more. 4j601d

He got his start playing a ing role in Endless Love in 1981 and then transitioned into a packed '80s slate that included blockbuster films like Risky Business and Top Gun.

Tom Cruise is hyping up his next movie, which will be helmed by an Oscar-winning director. Cruise has been working in the industry for decades, and has garnered both critical and commercial during that time. This year, his biggest project is Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, which comes out in theaters May 23. Last year, the actor signed a deal with Warner Bros. that would see him make more movies with them. As such, the actor-producer has several major projects coming down the pike even after this year.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning may be the end of Tom Cruise’s tenure in this beloved action franchise, but it’s certainly not the end of the actor’s progressive work within the genre. Cruise is currently attached to a project by filmmaker Doug Liman, which is said to be the first Hollywood feature to be filmed in space. Rumors about the project have been circulating for a long time, but Universal has recently shared an official update that Liman’s movie will be going ahead.

When it comes to Mission: Impossible stunts, Tom Cruise won't take no for an answer. The Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning may be Cruise's last time playing Ethan Hunt, the protagonist of the iconic spy franchise. It's not confirmed whether Mission: Impossible 8 is the last one, but if it is, Cruise is going to go out with a bang. While filming the action film, Cruise performed several awe-inspiring stunts, which is something he has done for nearly every Mission: Impossible movie.

Mission: Impossible star Tom Cruise could be looking to team up with the John Wick franchise’s latest action hero in a new supernatural thriller, Deeper. Cruise’s involvement was first announced by director Doug Liman in December 2024, and the movie is said to follow an astronaut who experiences a terrifying encounter while on a deep dive in an unexplored ocean trench. The project will potentially mark the third collaboration between Cruise and Liman, who previously collaborated on the sci-fi thriller Edge of Tomorrow and the action-comedy American Made.

The movie follows an international spy named Ethan Hunt, who is framed for conspiring with a dangerous European criminal and forced to prove his innocence while running from the CIA. It’s the movie that first kicked off this acclaimed action franchise, and it remains one of the best Mission: Impossible movies of them all.

Tom Cruise's best movies include Eyes Wide Shut, Edge of Tomorrow, and the Mission: Impossible films.
