Tom Cruise Performs ‘Mission: Impossible 7’ Stunt: ‘The Biggest in Cinema History’

Tom Cruise is doing a new high-stakes mission in some wild behind-the-scenes footage from Mission: Impossible–Dead Reckoning Part One.

The featurette shows the action star and his team preparing for a stunt years in the making, where he will jump a motorcycle off a cliff and turn it into a BASE jump. Just a normal day at work!

“This is far and away the most dangerous thing we’ve ever attempted,” Cruise says.

Dead Reckoning is the seventh installment of the spy thriller franchise, which stars Cruise as Ethan Hunt, a special agent of the Impossible Missions Force (IMF).

Back in May, teaser trailer revealed a series of death-defying stunts and action sequences in the film, including a sniper battle during a desert storm, multiple car chases and a tease of this stunt.

“Dead Reckoning Part One” is written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who previously helmed the franchise’s fifth and sixth installments — 2015’s “Rogue Nation” and 2018’s “Fallout.”

The film is produced by Cruise, McQuarrie, J.J. Abrams, David Ellison and Jake Meyers, and distributed by Paramount Pictures.

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is scheduled to premiere in theaters July 14, 2023.
