Tom Cruise ‘Mission: Impossible’ Stunt Real: Video Shows Actor on Side of

The sequence, which has been featured in most of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation’s trailers, involves practical stuntwork, like Cruise’s previous stunts.

Cruise obligingly showed real footage of him hanging with a side harness from the aircraft as it took off and the ground receded below. This time, we’re showing you how one of the cars used for filming stunts ends up looking like.

Eight takes. That’s great.

Put up for display at the BMW M facility in Garching, Germany, this auto was one of the lucky few that is still intact, despite what the bodywork will tell you.

With the International Monetary Fund disbanded, and Ethan (Tom Cruise) out in the cold, the team now faces off against a network of highly skilled special agents, the Syndicate. Just so you know, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation will hit theatres on August 7, 2015 in India – a week after its release in the US. These highly trained operatives are hellbent on creating a new world order through an escalating series of terrorist attacks.

Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation is in theaters July 31, 2015.

Starring Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Ving Rhames, Sean Harris and Alec Baldwin.

The film’s director, Christopher McQuarrie, did a Q&A session recently on his official Twitter account. Jake Myers is an executive producer.
