Tom Cruise Reportedly Makes More Money From His Movies Than The Studios
Tom Cruise reportedly makes more money from his movies than the studios backing them do. The actor got his start on the big screen in the early 1980s with breakthrough leading roles in the 1983 comedy Risky Business and would follow it up with his first action blockbuster, Top Gun, in 1986. Today, he is arguably the biggest action hero alive and one of the highest-grossing box office stars of all time, his films having amassed more than $10 billion worldwide. This is largely due to his role as IMF Agent Ethan Hunt in the long-running Mission: Impossible franchise, which began in 1996 and is now set to send Cruise off after two more installments.
