American actor Tom Cruise has never won a competitive Academy Award. He has been nominated four times: for best actor for Born on the Fourth of July (1989) and Jerry Maguire (1996), best supporting actor for Magnolia (1999), and, in his capacity as a producer, for best picture for Top Gun: Maverick (2022). However, in 2025, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded Cruise an honorary Oscar β€œfor his unwavering commitment to the filmmaking community, his vital support of the theatrical experience, and his unmatched body of work.”
