Tom Cruise Is ‘Absolutely Obsessed With Extraterrestrial Life’ and ‘Determined to Get His Space Movie Off the Ground’: Source
Tom Cruise’s next major movie could go where few men have gone before!
While there are still very few details available on the potential project, the Top Gun actor’s dream is to film in space, and according to a source, he “can’t wait” to go up and “float around” among the stars.
Tom has always been absolutely obsessed with extraterrestrial life forms,” the source added. “Which is why he’s so determined to get his space movie off the ground.”
Director Doug Liman, who previously partnered with Cruise, 62, on Edge of Tomorrow, even called the action star’s idea for the film “a dream and a plan.”
The project was initially announced in 2020 when NASA director Jim Bridenstein confirmed that the government agency was “excited to work with @TomCruise on a film aboard the @Space_Station!”
“We need popular media to inspire a new generation of engineers and scientists to make @NASA’s ambitious plans a reality,” he concluded.
