It was nothing but celebration in Tom Cruise's household as it was announced that his latest hit, Top Gun: Maverick, received six Oscar nominations.
While the actor was not able to nab himself a nod for Best Actor, he did receive one for his work as a producer in the form of a Best Picture recognition.

Alongside Best Picture, the box office and critical hit has also garnered nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay, Film Editing, Sound, Visual Effects, and Original Song for Lady Gaga's Hold My Hand.
While fans celebrated the recognition, there was a small uproar over its snub for Best Cinematography, and an even bigger one for Tom being passed over for an acting trophy.
