** Tom Cruise, Hollywood’s indefatigable action star, has no plans to retire anytime soon—joking he might even keep making movies into his 100s (or beyond). Despite *Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning* being billed as his franchise swan song, Cruise’s relentless energy and refusal to slow down suggest he’ll keep defying age and gravity for years to come.
What This Means: ** Cruise’s commitment to pushing physical and cinematic boundaries isn’t just a personal quirk—it’s a cultural fascination. In an era where franchises dominate and aging stars often pivot to quieter roles, his refusal to "act his age" challenges Hollywood norms and keeps audiences hooked. Whether you love his intensity or roll your eyes at the hyperbole, his career is a lens into how we view longevity, risk, and spectacle in entertainment.
