The upcoming action movie features plenty of jaw-dropping sequences and stunts performed by Tom Cruise’s agent Ethan Hunt, such as the 62-year-old actor hanging from the side of an aeroplane and jumping off the deck of an aircraft carrier, and director McQuarrie, 56, is glad ‘Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning’ was completed without any of the cast members sustaining any major injuries.

Speaking to Deadline, the filmmaker said: “I absolutely feel relief on this one.

“You’ve heard us say it before with every ‘Mission’: This is the most complicated thing we’ve ever done; this is the most dangerous thing we’ve ever done; it’s the most ambitious thing we’ve ever done. It’s always true.

“This is the first time when we did that twice in one movie. The submarine sequence represents something, and the aerial scene represents something, that each, in their own way, is the most complicated, most difficult thing that we’ve done.”

McQuarrie – who has helmed the ‘Mission: Impossible’ films from 2015’s ‘Rogue Nation’ to ‘The Final Reckoning’ – added he is “both astonished and relieved that we’re here” after working on all of the series’ death-defying stunts.

He said: “I thought what we were doing on ‘Jack Reacher’ was the limit, these ambitious car chases, with very little time and very little budget. ‘Rogue Nation’, I couldn’t imagine anything bigger than that.
