Tom Cruise, renowned for his leading roles in blockbuster hits such as "Top Gun," "The Last Samurai," and the "Mission: Impossible" series, will set up his office on the Warner Bros Discovery lot in Burbank, joining the ranks of Hollywood legends like Clint Eastwood and Frank Sinatra.
With a cinematic career spanning five decades, Cruise's movies have collectively grossed over $12 billion globally. The 2022 release of "Top Gun: Maverick" alone brought in nearly $1.5 billion, as reported by measurement firm Comscore. His latest film, "Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One," achieved a respectable $568 million in worldwide box office proceeds.
The collaboration with Warner Bros Discovery is non-exclusive, as Cruise concurrently works on the next installment of the "Mission: Impossible" franchise for Paramount Pictures, according to insider sources.
The film industry, including Warner Bros and other major studios, is currently navigating the aftermath of a prolonged work stoppage in 2023. Hollywood writers initiated the strike, later joined by actors, demanding higher wages and protection against the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in filmmaking.

The dual strikes brought a significant portion of film and television production to a standstill, impacting late-night talk shows and prompting broadcast networks to fill TV slots with repeats of reality shows. Paramount Global (PARA.O), the production house behind Cruise's "Mission Impossible" series, bore the brunt of one of the longest work stoppages in the history of the U.S. entertainment industry, causing a delay in the production of the next "Mission Impossible" film.
