Tom Cruise Says “Retire?” — Not Before the Sun Explodes

Buy Me A Coffee

Tom Cruise has no plans to ride off into the Hollywood sunset. In fact, if you’re waiting for him to retire… well, pack a snack. A really big one.

At a recent premiere of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (Part 27: Still Reckoning), the 62-year-old cinematic stuntman-slash-immortal confirmed what we all suspected: he’s not retiring until he’s old enough to qualify for three AARP memberships.

“I said I’m making movies into my 80s… actually, my 100s,” Tom boldly declared, probably while hanging off a helicopter with one hand and filming a monologue with the other. Honestly, the man is aging like a fine wine… that also skydives.

Why the commitment to acting well past the age when most people are just trying to beat Candy Crush level 2000?

Tom says it’s all about the vibes, baby.

“There’s been so many levels of reward,” Cruise explained, looking like a man who’s been spiritually adopted by every director in Hollywood. “From the filmmakers to the crews, to the cultures we’ve worked in…” (Translation: I’ve had snacks in 74 countries.)

But wait—there’s more Cruise-ian wisdom.

He went full motivational TED Talk, reflecting on the deep lessons he’s picked up along the way: storytelling, leadership, character… possibly how to do your own dental work while dangling from a train.

“It’s been exceptional,” he said. “I feel very fortunate to be able to make the films that I make, and I love it. I love just making movies.”

Translation: Tom Cruise is powered by cinema and probably Red Bull.

So buckle up, because this guy isn’t retiring—he’s RELOADING. Expect Mission: Impossible: Still Reckoning – Part 43 coming soon in the year 2091, starring a 129-year-old Cruise who still does his own stunts. And yes, he’ll still outrun explosions. And Father Time.
