It’s being billed as the biggest stunt in cinema history. Bold words for sure, but this is merely not a marketing campaign by Paramount Pictures and Skydance. That’s because Tom Cruise has in fact performed an insane and incredible stunt for Mission: Impossible 7.
Never one to shy away from a challenge or to put his life on the line for his craft, audiences have seen Cruise perform dangerous death defying scenes for his films. Hanging from the Burj Khalifa, flying a plane and helicopter and jumping out of planes seems to be part of the gig for the veteran action star. That said, his latest stunt which he performs for Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1 may well out do them all.
The scene as you can see before sees Cruise jump off a cliff with a motorbike, before parachuting down to the ground. In an age where CGI and green screens are the tools of actors, it’s refreshing to see an actor the calibre of Tom Cruise step up to the plate to entertain and thrill audiences in his own indomitable way. Check it out for yourself below.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1 arrives in cinemas in July 2023. The film stars Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Vanessa Kirby, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, Mariela Garriga, Henry Czerny, Shea Whigham, Greg Tarzan Davis, Frederick Schmidt, Charles Parnell, Rob Delaney, Cary Elwes, Indira Varma and Mark Gatiss.
