Tom Cruise Confirms Talks on Days of Thunder NASCAR Sequel

News summary

Tom Cruise has confirmed he is in talks to shoot a sequel to the iconic 1990 NASCAR film "Days of Thunder," signaling a strong possibility for the movie's return. The sequel discussion comes as Cruise promotes his latest film, "Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning," and follows years of NASCAR's openness to participating in such a project. Hollywood interest in motorsport films is growing, highlighted by Brad Pitt's role in an upcoming Lewis Hamilton F1 movie, which has further fueled speculation about "Days of Thunder 2." NASCAR Hall of Famer Jeff Gordon, a longtime friend of Cruise, has shown support and was recently seen attending a premiere with the actor, reinforcing ties between NASCAR and Hollywood. Jerry Bruckheimer, who produced both the original "Days of Thunder" and the new F1 film, is reportedly involved in producing the sequel, indicating strong industry backing. While the sequel is not yet officially greenlit, Cruise's public remarks and ongoing discussions among key parties suggest it is gaining momentum.
