Tom Cruise is in talks with Nasa about working on a movie shot in outer space, according to the head of the space agency.

 

“Nasa is excited to work with Tom Cruise on a film aboard the Space Station!,” Nasa administrator Jim Bridenstine wrote on Twitter.

 

“We need popular media to inspire a new generation of engineers and scientists to make Nasa’s ambitious plans a reality.”

 

Bridenstine gave no further details but the tweet followed a report in Hollywood trade outlet Deadline that Cruise was working with Tesla and SpaceX entrepreneur Elon Musk to make what would be the first feature film to be shot in space.

Too much to hope they would leave him there. His portrayal of Jack Reacher was a travesty.

For what purpose?   Hollywood can easily create graphics and illusion of space.

So he can say he was the first actor who shot a movie in space! Duh!

Perhaps you are right about Tom's portrayal however without his star power and money backers the Jack Reacher films would never had been made. Without Tom Cruise, Jack Reacher would only be a book series instead of a wildly popular film series that encouraged many to read the books.

Most of Tom Cruise's films should be shot into outer space.

The problem is that if aliens find them, they will think we are all  five feet tall.

I detest the self important egotistical narcissistic little runt. Unfortunately it will get shot in a studio with CGI. So no chance of him actually getting lost in space.
