Soft reboots are very much a thing, DC and Marvel have done them quite a bit, it's just when some stuff is changed, but other things continue on how they had been going. DC has done it with the New 52 and possibly Rebirth, and Marvel did it after the 2000s Secret Wars.
I 100% believe the general audience can get behind the Fantastic Four and X-Men joining the MCU and even having the focus of the movies become more X-Men oriented. I don't think people are just going to accept new actors for Captain America or Tony Stark to be dropped into the mix.

... The cast of the original Roger Corman Fantastic Four movie have cameos in First Steps! It's about time they got some recognition.

Cast the right actors and it won't matter. They replaced Bond, Batman, Capt Kirk and, now, Superman.
Oh, that's very cool! I have no idea what they look like so I'm curious to see if it'll be obvious.THR interview with Kevin Feige where he talks about a lot of things.

They might get behind the idea of Tom Cruise as Tony Stark but that is about it.
I can only watch a movie with Tom Cruise in secret these days. My wife hates him almost as much as she hates Woody Allen and Bill Cosby and Elon Musk. It is partly because of his status as a cult leader, but primarily because of the way he treated/treats Katie Holmes.
I'm building a Marvel Cinematic Multiverse Guide right now and have decided that I want to actually include currently non-Canon stuff like the 2003 Hulk movie, the Nicolas Cage Ghost Rider movies, FX's Legion, Hulu's The Runaways, Fox's The Gifted, and the ABC and Freeform TV shows (Agent Carter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Inhumans, and Cloak and Dagger), but need to come up with Universe Designators for them.
I'm considering lumping the ABC and Freeform shows and The Runaways together under the 'original' number designator for the Sacred Timeline (Earth-199999) and using the number designator that wouldve been used for the Ghost Rider universe if Cage had appeared in Deadpool and Wolverine (Earth-121347), but still need to figure out what to do about the 2003 Hulk, Legion, and The Gifted, and so I'm asking if anybody has any ideas on those fronts, or even ideas about a different designator number for the ABC/Hulu/Freeform Universe.

The last Tom Cruise movie I watched was the first Mission Impossible.

Mine was Mission Impossible 8th movie.
The first known use of the term reboot in this context was in 1994.
Soft reboot would be even more recent.
Cruise is getting too old to be the lead in Mission: Impossible, he will not become the new Tony Stark in seven years, at which point he'd be 70.
I have all of his Mission Impossible movies on blu ray except for the last two. My favorite Cruise movies though are "Days of Thunder" and "Born on the 4th July." I also really like "Rain Man" but more because of Dustin Hoffman than Cruise in it.
I hoped that after Endgame they’d introduce him to the Spider-Man films as the new Norman Osborne, a charismatic (something of a) scientist (himself) and businessman, a mentor to Peter with obvious echoes of Tony. But IIRC, No Way Home established that there is no Norman in the MCU.
