Exclusive: As Top Gun: Maverick passed $1.3 billion to climb to 13th place on the all time worldwide gross list, star Tom Cruise and producer Christopher McQuarrie are in the early stages of setting up three very different projects. They are still in the thick of Mission: Impossible 8 — Cruise was recently photographed in the UK’s Lake District practicing what appears to be his next death defying stunt, something called ‘speed flying’ — sources said that Cruise and McQuarrie are hatching three new film projects.

The world’s first space-based entertainment studio and multi-purpose arena is to launch in just two years’ time and has been revealed as the studio behind the Tom Cruise space film.
The groundbreaking studio, known as See-1, comes from film producer duo Elena and Dmitry Lesnevsky’s newly-launched Space Entertainment Enterprise (S.E.E.) and will dock with Axiom’s world-first commercial space station Axiom Station, which is connected to the International Space Station (Iss).
S.E.E. has hired senior entertainment execs including former Endemol Shine UK CEO Richard Johnston as COO, Mark Taffet, the former Senior Vice President of Sports and Pay Per View at HBO, and ex-Viacom Technology VP Remi Abayomi.
Maximized by the studio’s low-orbit micro gravity environment, See-1, which will open in late 2024 and break away from the Iss in 2028, will allow artists, producers and creatives to develop, produce, record and live-stream content.

Space Entertainment Enterprise (S.E.E), the company co-producing Tom Cruise’s upcoming space movie, plan to launch a sports arena and production studio in zero gravity.
S.E.E. has unveiled plans to build a space station module that contains a sports and entertainment arena as well as a content studio by December 2024. (An artist’s rendering is pictured above.)

MOSCOW -- A spate of apparent legal summonses from a Russian court sent out to top television and media executives demanding that they answer official questions over the financing of their companies were renounced as fakes, authorities verified Tuesday. The summonses, received by executives at a Moscow television station, a radio station and two newspapers, demanded that they appear within 24 hours to answer questions over alleged investigations into the financing of their companies. The letters, delivered Friday, were received by Irena Lesnevskaya, president of Moscow's Ren-TV, and Dmitri Lesnevsky, general director at Ren-TV; journalist Sergei Parkhomenko of Ekho Moskvy radio; Natalia Koshkaryova, editor of daily newspaper Nezavisimaya Gazeta; and Mikhail Berger, editor of weekly newspaper Yezhenedelny Zhurnal. Prosecutor general officials, contacted by the editors and executives, were swift to issue a statement declaring the letters fake and said an investigation had been launched.
