Career Resurgence
As Cruise became less public about his connections to Scientology, his career rebounded. In 2018, his film Mission: Impossible – Fallout became the biggest box office hit of his career. In 2022, Top Gun: Maverick surpassed Mission: Impossible – Fallout by earning over $1 billion at the box office. Cruise reportedly made $100 million from the film due to his involvement as both an actor and producer.
