1996	Cruise took on the role of superspy Ethan Hunt in the reboot of "Mission: Impossible" (1996), a film he also produced. Directed by Brian De Palma, the movie was a box office success, though criticized for the portrayal of the Jim Phelps character. Film critic Stephen Holden praised Cruise's performance, stating, "Tom Cruise has found the perfect superhero character on which to graft his breathlessly gung-ho screen personality." In the same year, Cruise played the title role in Cameron Crowe's sports drama "Jerry Maguire," earning a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy and his second Academy Award nomination for Best Actor.

	On February 9, 2010, Cruise confirmed his role in "Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol," the fourth installment in the Mission: Impossible series. The film was released in December 2011 to high critical acclaim and box office success, becoming Cruise's biggest commercial success up to that date.
2011	On May 6, 2011, Cruise received a humanitarian award from the Simon Wiesenthal Center and its Museum of Tolerance for his philanthropic work.
	In mid-2011, Cruise began shooting the movie "Rock of Ages" (2012), playing the fictional character Stacee Jaxx. Despite being a box-office misstep, Cruise received positive reviews for his performance.

Production Career
1993	In 1993, Cruise partnered with his former talent agent Paula Wagner to establish Cruise/Wagner Productions.
1996	Cruise/Wagner Productions co-produced its first film, "Mission: Impossible" (1996), which also marked Cruise's debut as a film producer.
	Cruise is recognized for negotiating some of the most lucrative film deals in Hollywood. In 2005, Hollywood economist Edward Jay Epstein described him as "one of the most powerful – and richest – forces in Hollywood." Epstein argued that Cruise, along with George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Jerry Bruckheimer, is among the few producers capable of guaranteeing the success of a billion-dollar film franchise. He emphasized that public fascination with Cruise's tabloid controversies often overshadowed full appreciation of Cruise's exceptional commercial prowess.
Filmography	Cruise has produced several films in which he also starred, including "Mission: Impossible," "Without Limits," "Mission: Impossible 2," "The Others," and "Vanilla Sky."
Break with Paramount
2006	On August 22, 2006, Paramount Pictures announced the end of its 14-year relationship with Cruise. Sumner Redstone, chairman of Viacom (Paramount's parent company), cited economic damage to Cruise's value as an actor and producer due to his controversial public behavior and views.
	In response, Cruise/Wagner Productions asserted that Paramount's announcement was a face-saving move, indicating that the production company had successfully sought alternative financing from private equity firms.
	Industry analysts, including Edward Jay Epstein, speculated that the actual reason for the split was Paramount's dissatisfaction with Cruise/Wagner's unusually large share of DVD sales from the Mission: Impossible franchise.
Management of United Artists
2006	In November 2006, Cruise and Paula Wagner announced the takeover of the film studio United Artists. Cruise assumed the role of a producer and star in films for United Artists, while Wagner became UA's chief executive.
2007	Production began in 2007 on "Valkyrie," a thriller based on the July 20, 1944, assassination attempt against Adolf Hitler. The film was acquired by United Artists in March 2007. Cruise signed to play Claus von Stauffenberg on March 21, 2007, marking the second production greenlighted since Cruise and Wagner assumed control of United Artists. The first was "Lions for Lambs," directed by Robert Redford and released on November 9, 2007, receiving unimpressive box office revenue and critical reception.
2008	In August 2008, Wagner stepped down from her position at United Artists but retained her stake in UA, combining with Cruise's share to amount to 30 percent of the studio.
Return to Paramount
	Cruise resumed collaboration with Paramount as a producer and star with "Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol," without Wagner. The film was a critical and commercial success. Cruise and Wagner later collaborated on the modestly successful "Jack Reacher" series for Paramount.
Warner Bros Discovery
2024	In January 2024, it was announced that Cruise's production company was forming a new strategic partnership with Warner Brothers Discovery to develop and produce original and franchise films.

Awards and legacy
In 2006, Tom Cruise achieved significant recognition, being ranked as Hollywood's most powerful actor by Premiere magazine, securing the 13th position on the 2006 Power List, and notably, the highest ranked actor that year. Simultaneously, Forbes magazine bestowed upon him the title of the world's most powerful celebrity. Recognizing his global appeal, the Japan Memorial Day Association declared October 10, 2006, as "Tom Cruise Day" in Japan, attributing this honor to his profound connection and affection for the country. Film critic Roger Ebert, while reviewing "Days of Thunder," observed recurring themes in Cruise's 1980s films, coining the term "Tom Cruise Picture." Ebert identified nine key ingredients characterizing these films, including the Cruise character, mentorship, a superior woman, a skill to be mastered, the setting or arena, esoteric knowledge to acquire, a journey or trail, a prototypical enemy, and the eventual adversary. This formula is seen in various Cruise films, such as "A Few Good Men" and "The Last Samurai." Widescreenings delved into Cruise's characters in "A Few Good Men," comparing them to those in "Top Gun." The analysis highlighted the contrasting approaches, where Maverick Mitchell in "Top Gun" is a military underachiever trying to outperform his late father, while Daniel Kaffee in "A Few Good Men" needs to let go of discipline and discover his capabilities. Beyond his acting prowess, Cruise is an accomplished aerobatic pilot. In 2010, he was inducted into the Living Legends of Aviation and received the Aviation Inspiration and Patriotism Award from the Kiddie Hawk Air Academy. Cruise, a P-51 Mustang owner, is celebrated not only for his on-screen success but also for his contributions to aviation.
