Why Tom Cruise Isn't At The Oscars, Despite Top Gun- Maverick's Big Nominations
  • last year
"Top Gun: Maverick" is nominated for six Oscars at the 95th Academy Awards, but if it does capture an Oscar, its big star/producer won't be there to accept it. Tom Cruise did not attend the biggest night at the movies, but there's a good reason why he won't be there. Surprise, he's working on the set of another movie.

Tom Cruise isn't taking a day off for an awards show and is instead in the U.K. working on the set of "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part II," according to Entertainment Tonight. While Hayley Atwell can take a break from filming for a beautiful vacation, apparently Cruise didn't want to step away from the thrilling scenes they're no doubt filming each day on set.
