10 Upcoming Movies With GENIUS Concepts
8. Tom Cruise & Doug Liman's Space Movie
Tom Cruise in space. For real. Enough said.
Earlier this year, it was announced that Tom Cruise was teaming up with Elon Musk and NASA to shoot a new movie in outer space. Somehow.
Cruise is scheduled to head into space with director Doug Liman (Edge of Tomorrow) to shoot the film aboard the International Space Station in October 2021, with a budget reported to be in the vicinity of $200 million.
The script is still being written by Liman - with Mission: Impossible's Christopher McQuarrie serving as a story advisor - the precise nature of which remains totally up in the air (literally).
It's probably reasonable to expect the film to be a claustrophobic kitchen sink thriller aboard the ISS, but knowing Cruise and his daredevil tactics, he'll do all within his power to take full spectacular advantage of his time in space.
No matter how the story turns out, this is going to be a must-see movie on the virtue of its sheer, mind-blowing ambition alone.
