Tom Cruise’s Crazy, Death-Defying Stunts Land 5-Minute Cannes Standing Ovation at ‘Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning’ Premiere


Tom Cruise returned to Cannes three years after "Top Gun Maverick" to electrify the festival all over again with his final "Mission: Impossible" film.

During the standing ovation, Cruise clutched his heart and nodded gratefully, with both he and director Christopher McQuarrie kissing and thanking guests Zoe Saldaña and Marco Perego-Saldaña. Cruise and Paramount are surely hoping “The Final Reckoning” follows in the footsteps of “Top Gun: Maverick,” which dazzled Cannes in 2022 and earned a five-minute standing ovation on its way $1.46 billion at the worldwide box office that summer. The cast also includes Hayley Atwell, Vanessa Kirby, Pom Klementieff, Henry Czerny, Angela Bassett and Rolf Saxon, all of whom appeared in previous “Mission: Impossible” installments.
