If the actor didn’t win the best actor title, he received the best picture award for his work as a producer. Indeed, Top Gun: Maverick, the sequel to the legendary 1986 movie, earned at least 6 Oscar nominations.
Connor Cruise, his adopted son from his marriage to Nicole Kidman, spoke on social media after this good news.
He showed his support for his famous father’s success by sharing a photo showing all the film’s awards with a series of trophy emojis.
In addition to Best Picture, the critical and blockbuster film was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, Film Editing, Sound, Visual Effects, and Lady Gaga’s original song Hold My Hand.
As fans celebrated the recognition, there was a small commotion about the film’s “Best Cinematography” nomination, and an even bigger clamor about Tom not being shortlisted for the best actor award.
Fans said, “Tom Cruise deserves a Best Actor nomination!” and: “Where’s the best actor for Tom?!”
Five nominations for Best Actor: Paul Mescal for Aftersun, Bill Nighy for Living, Brendan Fraser for The Whale, Austin Butler for Elvis, and Colin Farrell for Inisherin’s Banshees.
Tom and Nicole Kidman are the parents of Connor, 28, and artist Bella Kidman Cruise, who lives in London with her husband, Max Parker, who recently turned 30 and prefers to keep her private life a secret.
Meanwhile, Connor takes his own life as an avid deep-sea fisherman and barbecuer out of the spotlight and often shares little bits and pieces of his adventures.
Tom Cruise is also the father of his 17-year-old daughter Suri with his ex-wife Katie Holmes.
