Used to be a fan. He's boring to watch on screen anymore. Same guy in everything and knowing what we know it's not comfortable to see him
No one can escape time forever. The guy is 61. He's got maybe five more years or so of action movies in him before he starts taking more drama roles or roles in action movies with increasingly obvious stunt men.
Look at Harrison Ford, who's 81 now. His last role that could plausibly be called an action role was probably Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. He mostly closed the door on action roles in the 2000s, when he was in his 60s, and since then has either had drama or comedy roles or non-action roles in action movies with younger people doing the heavy lifting.
Note at that age I consider an action role to be one that requires the actor to run on camera.
Fuck Tom.
This is a quote from Cruise after the release of the first Top Gun: “I want the kids to know that’s not the way war is. That’s why I didn’t go on and make ‘Top Gun II’ and ‘III’ and ‘IV’ and ‘V.’ That would have been irresponsible.”
So, he’s also a liar.
