Brad Keselowski Gives a Childlike Response to the Massive Announcement Surrounding Millionaire Tom Cruise

“Rubbin’ is racing” has become an iconic phrase among NASCAR fans, and for good reason. In the movie “Days of Thunder,” Tom Cruise portrayed the lead character, Cole Trickle, bringing to life a realistic story of the world of NASCAR. Director Tony Scott skillfully presented the thrilling scenes, particularly capturing the excitement of Cole Trickle’s first race and his strong bond with his Crew Chief, Harry Hogge.

The film successfully blended the challenges of real-life racing with the intense rivalries and Cole’s romantic involvement with neurosurgeon Dr. Claire Lewicki. The dynamic rivalry between Cole and Rowdy Burns added an extra layer of interest to the narrative, culminating in Cole’s exhilarating first victory at Daytona.

Since its release in 1990, “Days of Thunder” has left a lasting impression on audiences, and now, after three decades, there are whispers of a possibility—a potential sequel, “Days of Thunder 2.” Fans eagerly anticipate the continuation of Cole Trickle’s journey, curious to see how his story unfolds in the ever-evolving world of NASCAR.

Tom Cruise Is Making a Comeback With the Director of Top Gun: Maverick

The true challenges faced by NASCAR drivers are often unknown to many. Watching a race merely scratches the surface of the demanding lives these racers lead. However, the film “Days of Thunder” managed to authentically portray the realities of a NASCAR driver’s journey. Despite the presence of Tom Cruise and the exceptional direction of one of the industry’s finest directors at that time, the movie fell short of being a blockbuster and earning $164 million at the box office, a figure lower than some of Cruise’s other successful films. This may have contributed to the lack of a sequel for “Days of Thunder” But now, there is exciting news for NASCAR enthusiasts.

As it turns out, the development of a sequel is underway. This time, the movie will be directed by Joseph Kosinski, the director behind the blockbuster hit “Top Gun: Maverick,” in collaboration with $600 million worth Tom Cruise. Expectations are high for this talented duo to recreate the success they achieved with Top Gun.

A recent tweet from GFR revealed, “We’ve exclusively learned Tom Cruise and Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski is developing Days of Thunder 2.”

NASCAR enthusiasts now eagerly anticipate the continuation of the “Days of Thunder” saga, eagerly awaiting the next thrilling installment that promises to captivate audiences once again.
