Director spills new details on Tom Cruise’s outer space project
Filmmaker Doug Liman's untitled movie with Tom Cruise is far from production
The long-awaited Tom Cruise outer space film is not coming out anytime soon, as director Doug Liman has given a disappointing update.
Speaking with Deadline at the Venice Film Festival, Liman revealed that the untitled space movie with Cruise has not yet entered the production phase.
"I’ve just finished this [Asteroid], so I’m now processing what’s next and what I learned. Part of it will be how the audience reacts to it,” the director said. “You’d rather I give you more concrete answers, but you’re getting me totally raw… I don’t know where it leaves me."
Liman further shared, "I know I want to do more in space… I am more excited about this idea of characters who have no business going into space after making this. In the way, I was excited after The Bourne Identity."
While he gave updates on the movie with Cruise, the director attended the festival to promote his XR thriller Asteroid, which is among 30 works competing in Venice’s Film Festival Immersive Competition.
The movie stars Hailee Steinfeld, Rhenzy Feliz, DK Metcalf, Ron Perlman, Freida Pinto, and Leon Mandel.
