if tom cruise were cast as neo in the matrix do you think it would be a suscessful as it is now?

Answer 1

I think so, but in a different way. Tom Cruise surprised me in Interview With the Vampire, so I think he could pull off almost anything. However, the first Matrix movie was made in the late nineties. Tom Cruise is such a paparazzi figure now even more than then, I think people would not find him believable. He is talented, yes. But the photographers need to give it a rest already. Keanu Reeves is interesting as an actor, especially in A Scanner Darkly, but I think the movie would have made it without him. In my opinion, Laurence Fishburn was the irreplaceable one in that movie. He is great as Morpheus.

Answer 2

Yes. Neo is the part Keanu was born to play, but Cruise is a great actor. He would have done well even though he would have to get on his tippy toes to kiss Trinity.

Answer 3

not by a long shot ...tom cruise is a wash up and has been ever since top gun really I do believe that might have been the last good movie he made well maybe cocktail it was pretty good
I have not like much of anything else he has been in , in recent years

i stand corected after reading another post interview with a vampire was good and I dont think brad pitt all that much either lol

Answer 4

NNOO i think Keanu Reeves did better than Tom Cruise could have.

Answer 5

Well, originally, they wanted to cast Will Smith for the role, so go figure.

And they wanted David Scwhimmer for Will Smith's role in Men in Black.

Answer 6

i think it would be. Tom Cruise has done well in the sci-fi/fantasy genre (minority report and legend) so I think it'd be interesting if he were cast in that role

Answer 7

HELL NO, no, no no, and more no. If someone does that, they are going to ruin the Matrix franchise. He is way too short to play Neo, anyways....LOL
