‘Mission: Impossible – Judgment Day’ director says film is ‘the most difficult thing we’ve ever done’
He Mission: Impossible The films are known at this point for including at least one death-defying stunt for star Tom Cruise. Cruise seems hell-bent on putting his life on the line for the benefit of the public, and so far, that dedication has led to some pretty excellent films.
Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning It may or may not be the final installment in the franchise, but director Christopher McQuarrie is already suggesting that the film has one of the biggest stunts in franchise history. When talking to Empire (by GamesRadar), said that the film contains “the most difficult thing” they have ever done with the series. Unfortunately, he didn’t go into detail about what the sequence entailed.
However, McQuarrie detailed a screening test and the sequence went exactly as he expected. “We had a little screening and someone said, ‘I was choking during the whole sequence. It almost gave me a heart attack. And I thought, ‘I guess we did something right,’ he explained.
The final reckoning is set to pick up many of the plot threads left hanging in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoningas Cruise’s Ethan Hunt faces off against the artificial intelligence known as The Entity. The first trailer for the new movie suggests that Cruise will hang from at least one plane, fight plenty of bad guys, and also do something daring underwater. While we don’t know which sequence was the most difficult, it’s safe to say that the film will contain a lot of stunts.
