Tom Cruise’s MTV Awards speech set new standards. The actor, 60, received the best performance in a movie for the popular sequel Top Gun: Maverick last year during the 2023 MTV Movie & TV Awards broadcast on Sunday night.
The cruise was shown inside a fighter jet flying high in the sky wearing sunglasses and speaking into a headset in a tape thanking vssssss for the fan-voted honor. He was traveling aboard the aircraft with his golden popcorn prize.
He said, “Thank you so much for this honor. I produce these flicks for you. I cherish you. I enjoy amusing you. There is simply no finer feeling than to realize how much you value something.” He continued by promoting his next action movie Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, which hits theatres on July 12. He described it as a “wild ride.”
“You have a lovely summer”, Cruise continued. “Once more, I appreciate you letting me amuse you. It’s an unquestionable honor. We will meet you at the theatre.”
