Tom Cruise is a name that is well-recognized across every corner of the globe. The superstar is known for his thrilling high-octane action films, by independently performing his own stunts. Cruise with his remarkable acting skills and charming personality has been able to tap his global fanbase. The Top Gun: Maverick star indeed has become one of the most bankable stars in the industry. Yet despite all this, Cruise fails to break the record set by the Marvel star, Samuel L. Jackson.
Tom Cruise’s Impressive Performance In Mission: Impossible Franchise
In his decades-long career, Tom Cruise has delivered some of the most iconic performances in the film industry. The superstar has the maximum number of films crossing the 100 million benchmark. Cruise’s filmography of hit films can go on for quite a while but the most blockbuster performance of the Jerry Maguire star is surely featured in the Mission: Impossible franchise. The franchise has written a new definition of action-thriller movies, engaging the viewers from its very first installment, released back in 1996.
The Born on the Fourth of July star’s portrayal of Ethan Hunt in the Mission: Impossible film series has solidified his status as a global superstar. The franchise has consistently received positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. The recent release of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One adds to the impressive legacy of the franchise. The seventh installment of the film series received an impressive rating of 99% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Samuel L. Jackson’s Unbelievable Collective Gross Exceeds The $27 Billion Mark
Samuel L. Jackson is an iconic figure in the entertainment industry who has consistently delivered outstanding performances in his long successful career. The Academy Award winner has been a part of several multibillion franchises featuring his memorable performances of Mace Windu and Nick Fury in Star Wars and Marvel Cinematic Universe respectively.
It goes without saying that Jackson’s movies have been a massive hit at the box office, with an average gross of about $218 million per film. The superstar’s movies have an astonishing collective gross of $27 billion worldwide. All these achievements have earned the Pulp Fiction star the title of one of the highest-grossing actors of all time.
Samuel L. Jackson through his groundbreaking work has set some high standards in the film industry, which can not even be overtaken by superstars like Tom Cruise. The Mission: Impossible star has indeed made his name in the industry but still falls short of overtaking the Pulp Fiction star’s record.
