Tom Cruise Flies A Bi-Plane As He Shares Details Of the Upcoming Mission Impossible Installment
You will not believe what Tom Cruise did whilst promoting the upcoming Mission Impossible 7. A footage of the actor, whose latest movie Top Gun: Maverick became an instant worldwide success, showed him in the air reportedly filming a stunt in a World War II-era biplane. The clip, which was shared on Sunday, saw him flying over South Africa’s Blyde River Canyon.
“Hi everyone! Wish I could be there with you – I’m sorry for all the extra noise,” Cruise explained in the video, said to be shown at CinemaCon in April. “As you can see, we are filming the latest installment of Mission: Impossible, and right now we are over gorgeous Blyde Canyon in stunning South Africa.”
In the clip, Cruise promised that “we’re making this film for the big screen for audiences to see in your wonderful theaters.” He was still talking when director Christopher McQuarrie flies into view with a second biplane. He proceeded to alert Cruise to his vehicle’s lowering light levels and low fuel. He then warned the author to return to filming.
“Oh yeah, we gotta roll, huh? Low on fuel, that’s not good. I’m sorry, we’ve got to go,” the Hollywood A-lister said before we hear McQuarrie yell “action!” and the two planes sped away.

Couple Reveal The Surprise Of Seeing Tom Cruise Perform A Helicopter Action Sequence
Cruise has been known to be capable of performing his own dramatic stunts in movies. In August, he was spotted filming an intense scene involving a helicopter at a “very remote” and “quite hilly” region of Lake District National Park in northwest England by dog-walking husband-and-wife pair Jason and Sarah Haygarth.
“Toward the end of the walk, last peak, we start seeing helicopters coming up a ravine and dropping people off the top… We were like, this didn’t seem right,” Jason told Extra.
“We found out the people, they were the cameramen,” he continued. “When we came to the peak, we got stopped by what must have been a production team member, saying, ‘You can’t go. We’re going to land the helicopter off the top…’ So we took a selfie.”

It turned out that the reason they couldn’t proceed was because Cruise was in the middle of filming one of his daring stunt sequences for the upcoming film.
Sarah then shared that she actually thought the stunt would be performed by a stunt double, only to arrive to see Cruise gleefully preparing to “jump off”.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part 1, the franchise’s seventh installment, will be released in July 2023.
