The movieTropic Thunderwas released in 2008. A film-into-a-film, it focused on a band of actors trying to make a film based on the Vietnam War, but it became a bloodbath with them trying to escape the drug dealers they had run into. And the cherry on top was Tom Cruise’s character Les Grossman, an angry, vile, producer, who just cared about the ton of insurance money he could get when the actors would lose their lives.
Tropic ThunderhadTom Cruisedecked in prosthetics and makeup with a bearded and bald look, and nobody could figure out that it was theMission: Impossiblestar. One of the most iconic characters in Cruise’s long career, it only feels natural that he should return to the big screen once again with the whole cast for round 2 of the underrated comedy.
While there are reports of Cruise eager to make a sequel of the action comedy, Robert Downey Jr was recently asked whether he would like to be a part of the project. And he replied,
“Um, look. All’s I’ll say is this. Tom Cruise and I have not done a project yet together. And that’s kind of a ‘yes,’ and then we’ll figure out what the title is.”
Well, if Cruise does revamp the comedy, it would be great to have Robert Downey Jr.,Ben Stiller, andJack Blackalong with the unhinged Les Grossman on the big screen again.
