A sequel to Apple original Films’ “F1 The Movie” should reunite Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise in a ‘Days of Thunder’ crossover, says “F1” and “Top Gun: Maverick” director Joseph Kosinski: “Who wouldn’t pay to see those two on the track?”
“F1” director Joseph Kosinski spoke to GQ Magazine UK and said his dream for a sequel to his Brad Pitt-racing drama is to actually bring in Tom Cruise for a “Days of Thunder” crossover. Kosinski previously directed Cruise in “Top Gun: Maverick,” which earned $1.4 billion at the box office, and the duo are currently developing a third “Top Gun” movie together.
“Well, right now, it’d be Cole Trickle, who was [Cruise’s] ‘Days of Thunder’ character, we find out that he and [Brad Pitt’s] Sonny Hayes have a past,” Kosinski said about his dream pitch. “They were rivals at some point, maybe crossed paths… I heard about this epic go-kart battle on ‘Interview With a Vampire’ that Brad and Tom had, and who wouldn’t pay to see those two go head-to-head on the track?”
Pitt and Cruise haven’t starred together in a movie since 1994’s horror classic “Interview With the Vampire,” although they have remained friends. Pitt recently showed up at the “F1” London premiere and posed for photos with Pitt, who told E! News earlier this month that he’s interested in acting with Cruise again on one condition: “I’m not gonna hang my ass off airplanes and shit like that.”
Cruise said on Today Show Australia in May while promoting “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning” that he’s “thinking and talking about what could we do and what’s possible” when it comes to a proper “Days of Thunder” sequel. News broke last November that Cruise was developing a follow-up to his 1990 NASCAR drama.
MacDailyNews Take: Now there’s a pitch, regardless of the cost (and it would be huge), that Apple would green light in a nanosecond!
