Tom Cruise ‘over the moon’ after Academy Award nomination

• Tom Cruise is pleased with his Academy Award nomination.
• The movie made $1 billion worldwide.
• Top Gun: Maverick has been nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay.

According to rumors, Tom Cruise is pleased with his Academy Award nomination for the smash hit movie Top Gun: Maverick.

The Mission: Impossible star wants to celebrate his nomination as an “absolutely killer producer,” an insider told a US local magazine.

“Tom is over the moon that he’s been nominated as a producer by both the Oscars and especially the Producers Guild,” an insider told the outlet.

The movie, which made more than $1 billion worldwide, was the big-name actor’s first in four years and garnered him an Oscar nomination for Best Picture.

Also, it is up for an Academy Award this year in the categories of Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Song, Best Sound, Best Film Editing, and Best Visual Effects.

“Filmmaking for Tom these days is all about creating the whole package and making it work and make money, as opposed to having that one scene in the film where he cries or yells and generates the perfect ‘Oscars clip,’” added the source.

“Tom has grown out of caring about that stuff, and in the process has grown into an absolutely killer businessman and producer — and that’s the real thing he’s intent on celebrating this awards season.”
