He&#8217;s going with director Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity) to film the first major Hollywood movie in space. There&#8217;s one seat left to fill on the capsule. It&#8217;s my understanding that both AW1Ed and Mick have expressed a desire to go with, in light of all that Tom Cruise has done to help naval aviation.<\/p>\n<p>The movie doesn&#8217;t have a name yet. Or a plot. Don&#8217;t really need either in Hollywood these days to be honest, but they have the big star and are escaping the planet to film it. The way 2020 is going, I&#8217;m jealous they get to leave this dumpster fire we call home, the third rock from the sun. If the Space Force doesn&#8217;t get on this ASAP, it&#8217;s an enormous missed opportunity. This could be the Top Gun or Strategic Air Command for the fledgling branch of service.<\/p>\n<p>Say what you will about the man and his beliefs, but he does get some props for doing most of his own stunts. That exploding fish tank in Mission:Impossible? Not only did he do it, it was his idea. Motorcycle and car chases in a variety of movies, all him. Scaling the Burj Khalifa? He did it. Hang off the side of an Airbus A400M? Yep. He&#8217;s more than adequately compensated for this to be sure, but most A-list actors aren&#8217;t actually putting themselves in any danger. The biggest risk they take on a set is food poisoning from the shrimp cocktail.<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t know how epically awesome Top Gun:Maverick will be. If it&#8217;s anything like the first, it will be a spot-on representation of naval aviators and aerial combat. To his credit again, Cruise is actually riding in the Super Hornets doing the high-G maneuvers. A couple years ago he developed some impressive helicopter piloting skills for that insane helicopter chase scene in Mission:Impossible &#8211; Fallout.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to the Gun Bunny for the story tip.<\/p>\n<p>Source; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/tom-cruise-outer-space-movie-elon-musk-space-x\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maverick himself is going into space next year on a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule.
