Tom Cruise's interstellar adventure: A meticulous update on his space movie, 3 years in the making Will this be Cruise's ultimate frontier? Get ready for an out-of-this-world cinematic experience! (346 characters)
Tom Cruise, star of Mission: Impossible, has provided an update on his ambitious plans for a new film that will take him to space. The project, which was announced in May 2020, will bring Cruise together with his Edge of Tomorrow director, Doug Liman. It has been reported that Elon Musk's SpaceX program will be used to film scenes on the International Space Station. Originally scheduled for October 2021, the space journey has been delayed, allowing the Russian-made film, The Challenge, to become the first to feature a professional actor filmed in space. Cruise spoke about this extraordinary project in an interview with Variety during his appearance at the New York premiere of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.
How Going Into Space Is The Next Natural Step For Tom Cruise
Despite suggesting that he is still uncertain about the definitive timeframe for the project's launch into outer space, he disclosed that he and Liman have been profoundly devoted to formulating their strategies, stating, "I am yet unaware. We have been wholeheartedly engrossed in this endeavor, and we shall ascertain our course of action."
With a career spanning over four decades, Tom Cruise has consistently proven himself to be a magnet for audiences, unlike anyone else. Whether it's strapping himself into the cockpit of a $70 million Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet or scaling the world's tallest building, Cruise has fearlessly pushed himself into increasingly dangerous situations to create some of cinema's most unforgettable moments. Additionally, Cruise's commitment to delivering real-life stuntwork instead of relying on digital effects has paid off, as evidenced by his consistently successful box-office performances, even at a time when other big-budget blockbusters like Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny are struggling.
Cruise is constantly pushing his limits and seeking bigger challenges. After exploring Earth-bound aircraft, it was only natural for him to turn his attention to space. Although he won't be the first to film a movie there, Cruise aims to become the first civilian to perform a spacewalk at the International Space Station. While there is no timeline for his extra-planetary endeavors, Cruise remains determined. With the success of his recent film, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, we can expect his most ambitious project to make a significant impact when it finally arrives from beyond our atmosphere.
