Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt have been together on screen only once in the 1994 horror fantasy film “Interview with the Vampire”, but now filmmaker Joseph Kosinski wants to bring them together in the sequel to his latest film “F1”.
Directed by Neil Jordan, the 1994 film revolved around Louis (Pitt), who loses his will to live after his wife dies during childbirth. But things change when he meets Lestat de Lioncourt (Cruise), a vampire who persuades him to choose immortality over death and become his companion.
Kosinski, who previously wanted to bring the actors on-screen in “Ford v Ferrari”, said he would want to have a film with the crossover of Pitt’s “F1” character Sonny Hayes and Cruise’s Cole Trickle from “Days of Thunder”.
“Well, right now, it’d be Cole Trickle, who was (Cruise’s) ‘Days of Thunder’ character, we find out that he and (Pitt’s) Sonny Hayes have a past…They were rivals at some point, maybe crossed paths,” Kosinski said.
“I heard about this epic go-kart battle on ‘Interview With a Vampire’ that Brad and Tom had, and who wouldn’t pay to see those two go head-to-head on the track,” he added.
Kosinski’s “F1was ” released on June 27 and also features Kerry Condon.
“Days of Thunder” was directed by Tony Scott and had a theatrical release on June 27, 1990.
