Overview
- Cruise revealed that his 'massive breakfast'—including nearly a dozen eggs, sausage, bacon, toast, and coffee—fuels his high-energy stunt work, such as wing-walking at 120 mph.
- All aerial sequences, including Cruise's wing-walking, were performed on real planes without green screen, confirmed by stunt coordinator Wade Eastwood.
- A dangerous submarine sequence required Cruise to breathe his own carbon dioxide to keep his face visible, a decision director Christopher McQuarrie admitted they might have reconsidered if they knew the risks involved.
- Cruise's relentless training spans diverse skills like flying, parachuting, and even dance, ensuring he is physically and mentally prepared for the franchise's escalating challenges.
- Set to premiere at Cannes and release in theaters on May 23, 'The Final Reckoning' is positioned as the potential conclusion to the 30-year, $4 billion 'Mission: Impossible' saga.
