I suggested to Tom, “What if you were on the outside of this thing when it took off?” I meant it as sort of a half-joke, but he said back to me: “Yeah, I could do that!”Ĭruise: The things we had to figure out were the engineering of putting a camera outside the airplane, figuring out where I could go outside the airplane the images that we had in mind for it. While searching for different locations, the production designer James Bissell bought me a model of this Airbus airplane and presented it as something we could use in the movie. The first is the Airbus A400M scene, the second has only been fleetingly alluded to in the trailer. So we came up with two incredibly physically punishing things for Tom to do, and we ended up using both in the film. Unfortunately, when you’ve climbed the tallest building in the world, you can’t have an action sequence on the second-tallest building in the world. The bar had been raised to such a point that the expectations so high. As a kid I remember flying on an airplane and thinking, “What would it be like out on the wing, or on the side of the airplane?”Ĭhristopher McQuarrie: We knew we needed a stunt. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time. Tom Cruise: I knew I wanted to have an airplane sequence. We spoke to the 52-year-old star, along with director Christopher McQuarrie, in depth about the mind-blowing stunt.
The scene in question, which can be seen at the end of the brand new trailer above, sees his character Ethan Hunt strapped to the side of an Airbus A400M plane as it takes off… and Cruise was doing it for real. Tom Cruise told Yahoo Movies that a sequence in the upcoming ‘Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation’ is “undoubtedly the most dangerous stunt I’ve ever done.”
