Tom Cruise and Anne Hathaway have announced that they will star in an upcoming sequel for the 1990 film Days of Thunder.

The 64-year-old leading man and 43-year-old Odyssey star revealed the news with a promotional photo and video shared across social media.

The snapshot featured the Hollywood vets leaning against a green and yellow race car at Daytona International Speedway. 

Cruise, who is producing alongside Jerry Bruckheimer and Tommy Harper, will reprise his role as NASCAR driver Cole Trickle, and Hathaway will play a team owner and engineer.

Due in theaters on June 2, 2028, the action/sport movie will be filmed for Imax and also featured in Dolby cinemas, 4DX and premium large-screen formats, according to Deadline.

Cruise famously met ex-wife Nicole Kidman on the set of the original movie. 

Paramount Pictures is producing the new flick, Will Staples will write the script, and Jonathan Levine will direct.

Cruise and Hathaway joined forces in a brief and lighthearted video, in which the actress warmly greeted viewers with a 'Hey!' while leaning into the camera.

They coordinated in blue jeans, with the actor wearing a pale blue button-up shirt with cuffed sleeves. Hathaway wore a similar shirt, with hers in a beige hue.

Her pregnancy bump was covered, as the star awaits baby number three with husband Adam Shulman.

And she wore a coordinating cowboy hat as she and her co-star eventually stepped away from the camera and walked over to the parked vehicle, which had a decal reading: 'Days of Thunder 2, summer 2028.'

'Now what?' Cruise asked Hathaway before she echoed, 'Now what? Let's make the movie!'

She quipped, 'I'm gonna have this baby, and then we're going to make this movie.'

Cruise approved, 'That's a good idea. You have the baby and then we're gonna make the movie.'  

The original Days of Thunder was directed by the late Tony Scott and earned $82.6 million at the domestic box office, and raked in $157.9M worldwide. 

Cary Elwes, Robert Duvall, Randy Quaid, Caroline Williams and Michael Rooker also appeared in the picture.

Earlier this year, Elwes spoke about being impressed by Cruise's dedication during filming.

The actors did the majority of their own stunts as they portrayed race car drivers in the movie.

Elwes shared with Entertainment Tonight (ET) that Cruise crashed his car into a wall on the first day, and his last words before impact were, 'Hello, wall.'

'Tom put a car in the wall, actually, on his first day of driving, and these things are not cheap,' he recalled. 'And he was so funny on film.'

Elwes also praised the Hollywood icon's professionalism.

'He's a terrific guy. He really is so fun to work with, so, so professional and so supportive of everybody,' he gushed.
