Mission: Impossible 7 resumes production with motorcycle stunt set video
After more than six months since production was temporarily halted, director Christopher McQuarrie took to Instagram to a new Mission: Impossible 7 set photo, confirming that filming has officially restarted on Paramount’s action sequel. The photo also teased one of Tom Cruise’s death-defying stunts which involves a high ramp on the edge of a cliff.
However, shortly after McQuarrie’s announcement, a new behind-the-scenes set video from that stunt has surfaced online through Norwegian news site NGTV and and NRK (via Twitter), featuring who seems to be Cruise as he drives a motorcycle off the ramp. Check out set video and photo below!
