The legendary producer brought one of Tom Cruise’s iconic characters back to the screen — and audiences back to theaters — with the rip-roaring sequel to the 1988 blockbuster.

'Women Talking' Producer Dede Gardner On How Sarah Polley's Film Reflects an Epidemic of "Violence Against Women"I think anybody who is in our business would love to be honored by their peers, people whom we make movies with, people we make movies for and people who understand our business. So it’s really an honor. And, you know, I’m not young anymore. I don’t have many more shots.

We certainly gave nods to the first movie because it was a cherished film. And it’s a movie that propelled Tom’s career into superstardom around the world. And Joe Kosinski honored [the latedirector] Tony Scott in the way he shot it — he certainly captured that. And that’s part of the style, the way Claudio [shot it]. The initial audience that came in to see it was a little skeptical because they loved the first one so much.

How important is the theatrical experience for you personally? Was going to the theater what made you want to make movies in the first place? There’s a lot of talent in this town, and you’ve got to sift through it and find the right ones. Plus, they were put through physical challenges to make this movie. Tom said they all had to be able to get in an F-18 and be able to have what they call G tolerance, which means they had to go through three or four months of training in various different jets to be able to withstand the seven or eight G forces they undertook while they made the movie. Those expressions on their faces were all real.
