Tom Cruise was recently spotted performing another one of his signature daring stunts, hanging from an upside-down plane while filming the upcoming “Mission Impossible” movie. According to a report by Mirror, Cruise was photographed mid-air in Oxfordshire, showcasing his commitment to performing high-risk scenes without the aid of a stunt double.
Sources revealed to the outlet that the actor appeared without a parachute as he clung to the wing of a bright yellow propeller plane. “When the plane flips upside down, Cruise – who did not appear to be wearing a parachute – is left hanging off it,” they stated.
Joining Cruise for the scene was his co-star Esai Morales, who plays the film’s antagonist. The intense sequence, captured by cameras on the ground and a nearby helicopter, depicted Cruise and Morales engaged in what appeared to be a high-octane fight inside the aircraft.
“The characters appeared to be filming a fight scene where they grapple with one another before the plane turns upside down. The pilot was dressed all in green, suggesting he will be removed from the scene and Cruise and Morales will be the only ones in the plane,” the source added.
Crew members, stationed nearby for safety and filming purposes, watched as the gravity-defying stunt unfolded. Cruise, renowned for his fearless approach to action sequences, once again demonstrated his dedication to authenticity in the “Mission Impossible” franchise. This latest stunt is sure to heighten anticipation for the upcoming film, promising audiences another thrilling installment filled with jaw-dropping moments.
