Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves are two of the biggest action stars in Hollywood, with multiple heart-thumping action movies in their filmographies. However, Mission: Impossible and John Wick have completely different fan bases, and the fans wait with baited breaths for their installments to drop at the cinemas. Cruise starrer franchise has seven movies so far, and the eighth one is in the making. Meanwhile, there are only four movies in the Reeves-led film series. Let’s see which franchise is leading by how much at the worldwide box office.
About the Mission: Impossible Franchise:
This Tom Cruise starrer is an American action spy film series based on the 1966 television series by Bruce Geller. It follows Tom’s Ethan Hunt, an Impossible Missions Force (IMF) agent. It is one of the highest-grossing franchises ever at the worldwide box office. Several renowned actors have been a part of the franchise; among them, Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames have recurring roles.
The latest movie in the Mission: Impossible franchise was last year’s Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning Part One. It reportedly underperformed at the box office due to the release of Barbie and Oppenheimer in the same month. But that did not stop Tom Cruise, as he is already filming the next installment, which also made news because of its alleged ballooned budget. It is said to have gone above $300 million.
