The seventh installment of the ‘Mission: Impossible’ film franchise will witness Tom Cruise reprising his role of Ethan Hunt. An agent of the Impossible Missions Force (IMF), Ethan promises to embark on his most dangerous mission till date in this upcoming epic action-adventure drama.
Paramount and Skydance on Monday, released behind-the-screen footage of the most dangerous stunt that Tom Cruise has ever attempted that was a highlight of the movie’s first trailer.
The footage saw Cruise and the film’s director, McQuarrie, demonstrate the stunt where the actor drives a motorbike on a ramp and off a cliff, leading into a base jump. To train for this complex sequence, Cruise did over 13,000 attempts. He later said, “I have to get so good at this that there’s just no way I can miss my marks.”
It was not just Tom Cruise’s dedication that was the highlight of the footage. To heighten the thrill of the stunt sequence, the camera had to capture Cruise from as close as possible.

The 75th edition of Cannes Film Festival kick-started on May 17 and will go on till May 28. This year, the prestigious film festival has chosen India as the ‘country of honour’. With two days of the festival already in, let’s take a look at the best moments from Cannes so far.
Tom Cruise Makes A Perfect Landing
After three decades, Hollywood star Tom Cruise arrived at the Cannes Film Festival for the screening of his film ‘Top Gun: Maverick’. With the sky filled in red, white and blue colours, and the air ringing with loud applause and screams of ‘Tom’, the star made a spectacular entry. At the screening, the star also received an honorary Palme d’Or and a heart-touching 6-minute-long standing ovation.
A Graceful Debut
For her first red carpet appearance at the Cannes, Tamannaah Bhatia opted for a bubble hem Gauri and Nainika gown with a trail. The actress looked graceful as she completed her look with dramatic eye make-up and heavy shinny jewellery. The star’s red carpet look was styled by Shaleena Nathani.
Dazzling In Gucci
English actress Rebecca Hall, who is on the jury at Cannes this year, debuted her short hair in a pink and orange sequin Gucci dress.
Colouring Cannes Red
On her first day at Cannes, Hina Khan rocked a red attire from the label Rami Al Ali by as Syrian fashion designer. The actress made her Cannes red carpet debut in 2019.
McQuarrie pointed out the technical challenges that were involved in shooting such a stunt.
The challenges ranged from placing the cameras in the right place to figuring out the appropriate lens and platforms. McQuarrie later said, “Even two years ago, the cameras didn’t exist that would allow us to do what we’re trying to do today.”
The movie will see Ving Rhames (Luther Stickell), Rebecca Ferguson (Ilsa Faust) and Simon Pegg (Benji Dunn) reprising their past roles. The new actors who have joined the cast are Pom Klementieff, Shea Whigham and Hayley Atwell. Esai Morales will be serving as the seventh installment’s primary villain.
The trailer saw Ethan Hunt being served with an ultimatum by Agent Kittridge, “This is our chance to control the truth…You’re fighting to save an ideal that doesn’t exist. It never did. You need to pick a side.” Ethan’s goal would be to fulfill his goal over the course of an action-packed adventure that will hit the screen this summer.
