A new report reveals details regarding a sequence in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two in which Tom Cruise is aboard an aircraft carrier. The long-running Mission: Impossible franchise is set to conclude with a seventh and eighth installment, the first of which hits theaters this summer. Much about the upcoming final entry is being kept under wraps, but director Christopher McQuarrie and Cruise have already teased that the film will feature some incredible action sequences.
According to Variety, at least a portion of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two will take place on a U.S. aircraft carrier in the Adriatic Sea. Details regarding the sequence are being kept under wraps, but Cruise is reported to have boarded the vessel via helicopter off the coast of Italy before the ship traveled to “somewhere between Italy and Croatia.” Cruise is expected to complete filming in the region this week before then traveling to his next filming destination. The head of Apulia Film Commission calls the Italian part of production a “complex shoot.”

What To Expect From Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two
Although Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is still months away from hitting theaters, some details have emerged about the follow-up. Like its predecessors, the upcoming franchise-capper will seemingly be a globe-trotting affair. Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two filming has so far taken place in the UK, Norway, Malta, Italy, and South Africa.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Mission: Impossible movie without death-defying stunts. McQuarrie and Cruise have the difficult task of topping the motorcycle base jump in the upcoming film, but some behind-the-scenes material has already teased some of what’s to come. The biggest stunt in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two, by a considerable margin, seems to be a biplane action sequence in South Africa, video of which has already been shared. In the footage, Cruise is shown holding onto the top of the small aircraft as it does various aerial maneuvers.
The Mission: Impossible franchise is also well-known for featuring some very nefarious and dangerous villains for Ethan to face off against. After Henry Cavill’s formidable August Walker in the previous entry and whatever is to come from Esai Morales’ villain in the upcoming film, it’s unclear who Ethan Hunt will face off against for his final adventure. As the franchise did with Solomon Lane (Sean Harris), however, it’s possible that Morales’ antagonist will return for Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two, especially since the upcoming installment is expected to end on a cliffhanger.
