Mission Impossible 7: Tom Cruise performs the most incredible stunt of his life

Never-before-seen footage of “Mission Impossible 7” aired this Thursday at the CinemaCon Festival in Las Vegas. Tom Cruise, headliner of the cult saga, has unveiled the behind the scenes of a particularly dangerous stunt that he has, as usual, performed himself.

The American star appeared in videoconference on the occasion of this annual event which brings together the owners of American cinemas. Tom Cruise spoke about an awe-inspiring scene in the film where Ethan Hunt, the character he plays, is seen dashing off into the void on a motorbike thrown at full speed.

“It is by far the most dangerous thing I have ever tried,” he said. “We have been working on it for years,” said the actor, explaining that it is a “motorcycle jump from a cliff followed by a base jump”. A childhood dream for the Hollywood star: “I wanted to do this since I was little,” he added.

Dantesque training

The stunt did not happen without intense preparation. Backstage footage released for the occasion showed Tom Cruise training by performing more than 500 parachute jumps and no less than 13,000 motorcycle jumps.

Tom Cruise, 59, is known to perform most of the stunts of his roles himself. He broke his ankle during the filming of “Mission Impossible: Fallout ”, the previous opus of the saga.

The shooting of “Mission: Impossible 7” was severely disrupted by the health crisis. Tom Cruise had also been talked about after his virulent comments against members of the production team who had not respected the sanitary protocol. The film is slated to hit theaters in the summer of 2022.

Participants of the CinemaCon festival also had the chance to see the first thirteen minutes of the sequel to “Top Gun”. We see the elite pilot Maverick, still played by Tom Cruise, testing a revolutionary prototype of a supersonic jet despite the opposition of his leaders, who want to close this top-secret program to replace the pilots with drones.
