- LOS ANGELES — Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise’s BTS footage of him shooting in
the Norwegian archipelago, Svalbard for his upcoming film ‘Mission: Impossible
– The Final Reckoning’ has surfaced on the Internet.
-
- In the latest behind-the-scenes footage from ‘Mission Impossible
8’, Tom Cruise gives fans a glimpse into one of the film’s most extreme
locations of Svalbard located in the Arctic Ocean.
-
- Svalbard, which is located between mainland Norway and
the North Pole, served as the perfect setting to bring yet another thrilling
chapter of ‘Mission: Impossible’ to life.
-
- Tom Cruise said in the BTS video, “The landscape is just
breathtakingly beautiful”.
-
- His co-star Simon Pegg puts it, “If you want to shoot on
the ice cap, you are going with temperatures that are absolutely the most
extreme”.
-
- Director Christopher McQuarrie emphasizes that this kind
of raw environment simply can’t be faked. He said, “You cannot fake being in
minus 40 degrees. Take your gloves off for a few seconds and your fingers will
start to freeze”.
-
- The harsh reality of the shoot wasn’t just about
discomfort, it was about authenticity. And that’s what Cruise is all about.
-
- This isn’t the first time Cruise has taken things to the
edge for the Mission: Impossible franchise. From climbing the Burj Khalifa to
hanging off airplanes mid-flight, his pursuit of realism has always been part
of the thrill. But Svalbard adds a new element to the legacy, a haunting,
frozen desolation that no green screen could replicate.
-
- Actress Hayley Atwell, who joins the action once again,
echoes that sentiment. She believes the stark, frozen setting adds not just
spectacle, but genuine tension and atmosphere to the story.
-
- Tom Cruise said, “It looks amazing on screen”.
-
- The film is set to arrive cinemas in India on May 23 in
English, Hindi, Tamil & Telugu in 4DX & IMAX.
