risky business.The 59-year-old action star proved that he still does his own stunts accomplishing a “Top Gun” moment on Tuesday when he landed his own helicopter in South Africa.And in typical Tom Cruise fashion, he was smiling and waving the whole time.Gillian Soames, who lives in Hoedspruit, said the “Jack Reacher” actor has flown by her town several times, but she got to witness his mega-watt smile up close when she snapped photos of him expertly landing the chopper.“For the last week, he has driven past my house two or three times a day and flies over every day and night to wherever they are filming that day,” she told South West News Service.In fact, Soames said that Cruise was staying just a few hundred meters from her home and has been a “delight” to locals.“I must have seen him 11 times now,” she added, “but yesterday was the first time he took off his mask to smile for us so we could see his face.” Soames, 49, also added it’s the first time she’s seen him flying the helicopter on his own, though the veteran actor is well-known for doing his own risky stunts — like recently when he was photographed riding atop a speeding train and grinning for fans and paparazzi. “It was also the first time he flew the chopper himself,” she noted to SWNS.

previously snagged the rights to the next film by Nikyata Jusu, the director of “Nanny” whose film won the Jury Prize at this year’s Sundance. “Honk for Jesus” is a comedy and satire filmed partially as a faux-documentary, and it follows Pastor Lee-Curtis Childs (Brown) and his wife, First Lady Trinitie Childs (Hall), as the heads of a Southern Baptist mega church as they try and bounce back from a scandal that’s forced them to shut their doors and led their congregation to leave in a mass exodus. The film picks up in the aftermath as the Childs, still insanely wealthy, try and host an Easter service and drum up attention for the community with a feeble attempt telling passers by on the highway to “Honk for Jesus.” The movie satirizes the culture of for-profit religion and the corruption, back biting and ego that goes on behind the scenes.
