It does not happen very often, but when it comes to Tom Cruise, fans and critics agree, without a doubt, that he is among the last true action stars of Hollywood. Being involved in the on-and off-camera work of the movie sets, Cruise harbors a deep love for movie-making and cherishes every project deeply. The end result is some of the most iconic action sequences in cinema, be it him jumping off an insanely high cliff in Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning Part One or flying helicopters in the Top Gun movies. No one does it like Tom Cruise, and fellow filmmaker Justine Bateman agrees.

Vouching for him to take a crucial role in the industry, Justine Bateman has a special request for Tom Cruise.

These days, Tom Cruise is spending day and night promoting the recently released Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning. And to discuss it and other industry things, he appeared on The Pat McAfee Show, where Cruise shared a detailed description of shooting Top Gun: Maverick after the pandemic. And reposting his interview on her X account, Justine Bateman wrote on the platform, "Can Tom Cruise please just become the President of Hollywood. At the very least, run a studio."

In the clip, Tom Cruise revealed how everything was closed, and many studios were not ready to shoot a movie after the tough phase of the pandemic. By then, Top Gun: Maverick was already in the pipeline, and not taking no for an answer, Cruise reached out to many studios, reached out to governments, and did a lot of hustling that finally led to the cameras rolling and the shoot for the movie began. Actress and fellow filmmaker Bateman, who is credited for Violet, Another Woman, and others, just like everybody else, was highly impressed with Cruise’s perseverance, a strong element that he brings to all his projects.

While his dedication to Top Gun: Maverick paid off with a record-shattering success, Cruise had similar hopes for the Mission: Impossible finale.

With the recent release, 29 years of legacy of finishing the most impossible missions that no one else dares to touch have come to an end with Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning. The movie sees Ethan Hunt head down to the depths of the Bering Sea and hang off a biplane, juggling some death-defying sequences. Meanwhile, director Christopher McQuarrie and editor Eddie Hamilton's visualizing efforts have paid off by delivering a gripping and cathartic cinematic experience. It has been one week since its release on May 17, and Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning made $8 million in Thursday box office previews, a franchise record, and by May 22, it has minted 57 million.

Moreover, it is projected to gross $80–110 million over the four-day Memorial Day weekend. For this last installment, Tom Cruise has left no stone unturned, similar to Top Gun: Maverick, and it seems to be paying off well. Undoubtedly, Cruise has a knack and passion for delivering some unforgettable cinematic experiences, and his fans would agree with Justine Bateman that he might as well be the ideal choice for becoming Hollywood president.
