NASA has confirmed that Tom Cruise is partnering with them to shoot a movie aboard the National Space Station, the first narrative feature to be shot in space. NASA is excited to work with @TomCruise on a film aboard the @Space_Station, NASA administrator Jim Bridentsine tweeted on Tuesday. We need popular media to inspire a new generation of engineers and scientists to make @NASAs ambitious plans a reality.
Cruise and Elon Musks SpaceX were in the early stages of teaming up with NASA for an action-adventure feature film that would be shot in outer space. Plot details have not been revealed.
Cruises next film is Top Gun: Maverick, in which he reprises his role as Captain Pete Maverick Mitchell. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Paramount has moved Top Gun: Maverick off its July 12 release date to Dec. 23, 2020.
