Collider · 3 hours ago

Risky Business, the 1983 film widely regarded as Tom Cruise’s breakout role, will be available to stream on Paramount+ in August 2026. The return gives audiences another chance to watch the coming-of-age comedy-drama that helped establish Cruise as a major Hollywood star, before later successes such as Top Gun and Mission: Impossible.

Cruise plays Joel Goodsen, an American teenager whose life changes while his parents are away. Directed by Paul Brickman, the film is particularly associated with Cruise’s famous scene in a pink shirt, white briefs and socks; its streaming arrival comes 43 years after its original release.
