Tom Cruise is still working on his movie to be shot in space
Tom Cruise is still working on his movie that will involve filming in space, with the actor confirming that the project is in the pipeline.
Cruise was asked about the currently untitled film at the premiere for Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, and revealed that he still wanted to partake in the space walk for the shoot.
“We’ve been working on it diligently and we’ll see where we go,” he said (via Variety), before confirming that the film was yet to have a production date. Doug Liman, who worked with Cruise on Edge of Tomorrow, is currently slated to direct the film.

Whilst Cruise will set foot into the next frontier for that film, the star undertook numerous stunts for the seventh film in the M:I franchise, opening to rave reviews and solid box office takings.
Ahead of the film’s release, co-star Hayley Atwell spoke exclusively with Digital Spy, and revealed she wanted to film some stunts alongside Cruise.
“You don't come in as the leading lady opposite Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible if you don't want to do your own stunts or you're like, 'I'm going to sit this one out.' He'll be like, 'What? But you can do it,’” she explained.

“We had this expert team of stuntmen and women who oversaw all my training, so it meant I was fit for purpose. It meant on any given day, my physical behaviour and what I'd built up to physically be able to do was dynamic - it was safe enough so I could change elements of the performance so I could make her seem more reckless or more full of self-doubt.
“Part of the reason why the fearlessness came in was because Tom is so prepared and disciplined and will drill every physical move he needs to make, knowing where the obstacles are, double-checking the harness and such,” she added.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is released in UK cinemas on July 11 and in US cinemas on July 12.
