As an insider claims, “Tom is pushing the completion to the absolute limit in terms of deadlines and scheduling, and it’s nerve-racking for everybody, especially on the business side, the movie’s ending is still being shot, revised and reimagined. They’re shooting M:I8 back to back – but M:I7 isn’t finished and it’s coming out in two months!”
Tom Cruise is trying the impossible (no pun intended) as he is filming two movies at the time, Mission: Impossible 7 is about to complete its filming, however, Tom Cruise is already filming Mission: Impossible 8.
According to Radar Online, there was an audio leak from filming where he is clearly irritated and is ranting to the cast and the crew to meet his daring demands.

The insider continued elaborating “Tom is obsessed with topping the performance of Top Gun: Maverick, that’s the big brass ring for him on this movie – to make it the biggest Mission: Impossible ever and to use every penny and every minute to get it to that place.”
Top Gun: Maverick was nominated for six Oscars including for Best Film
Top Gun: Maverick was the return of Tom Cruise to San Diego where he shot the first movie back in the 80s, and sources say that he cozied up to Hollywood execs to have the film nominated in different categories, including Best Film.
After 6 nominations, and an absent Tom Cruise, the movie walked away from the Academy Awards with only one statue, as the film crew took the best sound award, regardless, the big win for Top Gun: Maverick was at the box office as it remained the number one movie at the box office.
