“We did something right”: Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible Stunt Almost Gave a Viewer a Heart Attack but It’s Still Not Good Enough for the Oscars

Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible franchise has been a mainstay of the actor’s career over the past few decades. The action-blockbuster franchise is known for challenging the limits of stunts in modern filmmaking, resulting in some of the most breathtaking and heart-pounding sequences ever captured. This trend is set to continue with the upcoming eighth installment.

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning directed by Christopher McQuarrie is slated to release later this year and a promotional campaign for the movie has already begun. In a promotional interview, McQuarrie discussed the film’s audacious stunts with one sequence almost inducing a heart attack in a viewer during an early screening, which only calls for the Academy to take the stunts category more seriously.
