Appearing at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival (France), Tom Cruise once expressed his attitude towards people asking too much about him risking himself to perform dangerous actions.

The actor said: “No one asked dancer Gene Kelly why he kept dancing by himself throughout his career. What if I risk my life to act in movies? That’s my job! I always think about it. Is there anything else I can do to expand the way I express the art of acting?

I always wonder how I can immerse the audience in an action movie? How can I entertain the audience? I am a movie star, so what I do is to best serve the work I pursue.

When making a film, I try to use all the s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s I have, all the knowledge I know, all the s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s and knowledge that my collaborators possess, and the strengths of the big screen outside. theaters too… Making films was an extraordinary experience for me, because I learned many things about people, about work, about art from there.”
