Tom Cruise Eating Popcorn Is Going Viral
Tom Cruise is a whole It's been almost thirty years since hunky heartthrob Ethan Hunt (Tom) dangled from a ceiling in the first Mission: Impossible movie based on the 1966 TV series. The legendary leading man who's become a household name from the '80s and beyond is back in Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning. Truth be told, my jaw is on the floor because the action sequences look more dangerous than ever before. But, to my surprise, doing death-defying stunts in your late 50s/early 60s in one of the highest-grossing and long-running series of all time is not why Tommy is going viral. Eight movies of Tom's unbelievable stunts —jumping from helicopters, running from explosions, leaping from tall buildings, dangling from more helicopters — and THE BIGGEST STUNT GOING VIRAL IS HIM EATING POPCORN! In a video posted by user @seifwtf on X, Tom went in on a popcorn bucket, aggressively flinging pieces into his mouth at the BFI IMAX Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) screening. Tom also received a BFI Fellowship at the BFI Chair's Dinner, but all folks wanted to talk about was this single moment of him eating a bag of popcorn. People had hilarious reactions to Tom's high-octane eating popcorn-eating technique. One person said, "this is how my dad eats popcorn." This person suggested that "someone hand him heavier popcorn," and maybe that would help. I can't believe somebody compared him to a Nep-Enut from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. This user said, "I have got to change the way I eat popcorn." Someone else said Tom is "Just leaving mountain of popcorn on the floor in his wake," and I'm curious if this is true. I love the way this person incorporated Mission: Impossible lore into their joke. "Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to get it in your mouth, not on the floor," they wrote. "Man, I'm eating popcorn," Tom said, laughing. "They know when I'm going to these movies that I'm watching, I'm eating popcorn." Tom Cruise is serious about cinema and the movie theater experience; his popcorn practices are just an element of that dedication. You remember this 2023 promotional video for Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning? In another viral video shared on X, Tom was urging a fan to "go get some more" popcorn since he ate it all before the movie began. One person asked, "If you've not finished your popcorn before the movie starts have you been been to the cinema?" Someone else suggested, "This dude can never go to the movies again. Just embarrassing," after being called out by Tom. Tom should make an ASMR channel where he eats different types of popcorn in different movie theaters. Based on the internet's reactions, it would do numbers.

Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning Is Made for 400 Million USD, Reportedly Among Costliest Movies Ever
Tom Cruise's upcoming film Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning has reportedly crossed a production budget of USD 400 million, making it one of the most expensive movies of all time. While Paramount has not confirmed the exact figure, a recent report suggests the budget is at least USD 400 million. This puts Mission: Impossible 8 in a very exclusive group of films with massive production costs. Only a few other films have had budgets above USD 400 million, including Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (USD 416 million), Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (USD 432 million), and Star Wars: The Force Awakens (USD 447 million). The film's original budget was reportedly closer to Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning, which cost around USD 300 million. However, the budget for The Final Reckoning grew over time due to multiple delays, as per ScreenRant. Production was halted several times because of the Covid-19 pandemic and the 2023 Hollywood strikes. These pauses added significant costs to the already ambitious project. The film is set to feature large-scale action sequences and stunts, continuing the franchise's tradition of big-screen spectacle. Despite the high budget, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is expected to have a strong opening weekend. Projections suggest the film could make around USD 80 million during its opening on Memorial Day Weekend in the U.S. If it meets these expectations, it would become the biggest opening in the franchise, surpassing 2018's Mission: Impossible - Fallout, which opened to USD 61 million. However, the movie will face strong competition from Disney's live-action Lilo & Stitch, which is projected to earn around USD 120 million during the same weekend. With a reported budget of USD 400 million, the film may need to earn at least USD 1 billion globally to be profitable. Typically, a film needs to make around two and a half times its budget to cover production and marketing costs. No Mission: Impossible movie has reached the USD 1 billion mark yet. The current highest-grossing film in the series is Mission: Impossible - Fallout, which earned USD 786 million worldwide. Even if it falls short at the box office, The Final Reckoning is still expected to do well on streaming. It will likely become a major title on Paramount+ after its theatrical run.
