Tom Cruise and Ridley Scott teamed up in 1985 for the bizarre fantasy epic “Legend,” where Cruise played Jack, a hero battling the villain Darkness to save the world from eternal night. Despite a fiery set disaster, endless script revisions, and Tim Curry’s grueling makeup sessions, the film flopped at the box office and got brutal reviews — even Cruise called it his worst experience. But time has softened its edges: now considered a cult gem, it’s proof that even misfires can become legacy pieces as both filmmakers soared to superstardom with classics like “Gladiator” and “Top Gun: Maverick.”
