Now 60 years old and still doing wild stunts, Tom Cruise addresses when he plans on retiring from the death-defying scenes he’s become known for.
Tom Cruise, who is now 60 years old, comments on whether he has any plans to retire from doing dangerous stunts in the near future. Cruise recently appeared in last year’s smash hit Top Gun: Maverick, a movie that featured him and his costars filming their scenes in real fighter jets at extreme G forces. The actor can next be seen in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, the penultimate installment in the franchise following superspy Ethan Hunt, who continuously pulls off death-defying action feats involving planes, trains, cars, motorcycles, free dives, and base jumps.
Now, in a recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Cruise makes it clear that he doesn’t have any intention of cutting back on dangerous stunts in the Mission: Impossible franchise or other projects for the foreseeable future.
Although Cruise is now 60 years old, he tells Kimmel that he still plans on doing stunt work well into this next stage of his career, with seemingly no retirement point in sight. Check out Cruise’s full comment below when asked if he’ll still be doing stunts when he’s in his 80s:
