Tom Cruise Says He’s Not Done Until He’s Tap Dancing Through a Fireball in a Musical

Buy Me A Coffee

Tom Cruise, Hollywood’s most energetic action figure (who also does his own stunts and probably his own taxes), has revealed that he’s not just about running from explosions or clinging to the side of planes like a caffeinated spider monkey.

In a chat with TV presenter Edith Bowman on Sunday (May 11) in London—a city famous for rain, tea, and actors talking about their craft—Tom got real about what kinds of movies he still wants to make at the ripe, wrinkle-defying age of 62.

Spoiler alert: Tom Cruise wants to SING.
Yes, you heard right. The man who once yelled “Show me the money!” now wants to belt out high notes and jazz hands his way into your heart.

“Definitely a musical. Absolutely, musicals,” Tom said, reportedly without even twirling a cane or doing a single jazz square.

He went on to say his dreams are basically infinite.

“You know, dramas, action adventures. It’s endless. My goals are endless,” he said, clearly ready to tackle every film genre except “low budget student short.”

This isn’t completely out of left field, though. In 2012, Cruise dove headfirst into the musical mayhem of Rock of Ages, where he played Stacee Jaxx, a leather-clad rock god who looked like he drank Jack Daniel’s for breakfast and bathed in glitter. He even sang actual songs like Def Leppard’s “Pour Some Sugar on Me” and Bon Jovi’s “Wanted Dead or Alive,” proving he can not only run in slow motion, but also hit a decent falsetto.

Next up for Cruise: receiving a super fancy BFI Fellowship (aka the British Film Institute’s way of saying “You’re a legend, please take this shiny thing”) and hitting the 2025 Cannes Film Festival for the world premiere of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.

So who knows? Maybe next time, Ethan Hunt will be defusing bombs and tap dancing on them.
