Mission: Impossible 7's Wild Stunts Are Already Beating Past M:I Movies

screenrant.com:

The Mission: Impossible film series is famous for its wild stunts precisely executed by many but especially Tom Cruise, but its seventh installment Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One has teased stunts that already surpass those of Mission: Impossible 1 to 6. Set to be released in July 2023, Mission: Impossible 7 will be the first of the two-part chapter planned as a sendoff for Cruise’s portrayal of IMF agent Ethan Hunt in the Mission: Impossible franchise. Mission: Impossible 7 will see many actors return, including Ving Rhames as Luther Stickell, Rebecca Ferguson as Ilsa Faust, and Simon Pegg as Benji Dunn, who have been part of Hunt’s IMF team for the best part of the franchise. The film will also see Vanessa Kirby return as the White Widow and Henry Czerny as Eugene Kittridge, IMF’s director in the 1996 film that started it all, Mission: Impossible.

Starting as a spy series, Mission: Impossible slowly switched to highlight its crazy stunts, becoming famous for how they became wilder as the franchise continued. From climbing the tallest building in the world in Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol to hanging from the side of a flying plane during takeoff in Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, Cruise’s stunts upped the game as the movies went on. For the most recent installment, Mission: Impossible – Fallout, stunts included helicopter chases for which Cruise had to precisely fly the helicopter without breaking character and even a dangerous barrel roll. Mission: Impossible 7 and 8 have been reported to include even more dangerous stunts, as the Mission: Impossible 7 trailer also showed.
