Glen Powell’s Mom Celebrates Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning with Tom Cruise

by

In a surprising twist, “Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning” has become one of the most anticipated films in 2025. Alongside “Lilo & Stitch,” it’s been boosting summer box office revenue for the past two weeks. However, I never imagined Glen Powell’s mother would take on the mission! Yet, there she was, beaming with delight as she posed for a photo with none other than Tom Cruise himself – quite an unexpected moment!

On Thursday afternoon Glen Powell took to his Instagram Stories to randomly share a photo of his momma, Cyndy Powell, standing next to Tom Cruise. I didn’t know I needed this, but it’s so sweet. Check it:

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel thrilled when I see Glen Powell sharing updates like this! He recently posted a photo from “Mission: Impossible – Fallout” with the caption, “Mom Approved.” It seems Mom has finally caught up with the blockbuster, and it makes me wonder if she watched it side by side with Glen. Regardless, this is one impressive family moment for Glen Powell!

Absolutely, Tom Cruise and Glen Powell have been friends since they worked together on the cast of “Top Gun: Maverick.” Since Powell’s family often accompanies him to industry events, it appears as if Cyndy Powell and Cruise are quite familiar with each other and enjoying themselves, maybe at a unique screening of “Final Reckoning.” I believe there might be some cinema seats visible in the photo’s background.

Interestingly enough, Glen Powell was once questioned regarding the possibility of him taking over from Tom Cruise in the Mission: Impossible series. The actor expressed that his mother would never allow it as performing those stunts is likened to a “death trap.” He also referred to the role as the “least desirable job,” but it appears that Mrs. Powell is quite content with Tom Cruise portraying Ethan Hunt, a character he’s played for approximately 30 years.

It’s evident that Tom Cruise and Glen Powell have developed a strong bond, as Cruise is frequently spending time with his mother. This kind of camaraderie is not commonly seen in Hollywood, where family members are usually kept private. Interestingly, one fascinating detail about Glen Powell is his habit of including his parents in major film projects, such as in the movie “Twisters”. In fact, they’ve gained attention before for their humorous appearances on red carpets with him.

Apart from these two renowned actors sharing a common knack for movie-making, it’s worth noting that Powell expressed his duty to create films for cinema enthusiasts by collaborating with talented directors such as Edgar Wright (“The Running Man”) and J.J. Abrams (on an unnamed project). Given the recent news about “Top Gun 3,” there’s a strong possibility we’ll see both Powell and Cruise soaring through the skies together again in the future. Here’s hoping Mama Powell continues her involvement as well!
