MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - FALLOUT Stunts Featurette Explores Tom Cruise's Death-Defying Helicopter Chase
Paramount Pictures has released a ridiculously insane stunts featurette, taking us behind-the-scenes of Tom Cruise's wildest and (arguably) most dangerous stunt yet: the helicopter chase! Check it out!
Tom Cruise is well known for going above and beyond for his fans, always wanting to give them their money's worth, and the highly-anticipated Mission: Impossible - Fallout is no different - except, this time, it looks like he's really outdone himself.
After scaling the tallest building in the world, hanging off the side of an airplane, and countless motorcycle chases, Cruise decided to up the ante with Fallout by completing an unbelievable helicopter chase sequence that will see him in the pilot's seat from start-to-finish as he's hunted down by Henry Cavill's villainous August Walker.
Paramount has now released a new stunts featurette that takes us behind-the-scenes of the incredibly dangerous sequence and confirms that the action in the movie is very, very real as we see Cruise actually pilot the helicopter and do what he does best: the impossible.
Check it out below:
