Transcript

00:00 When we started talking about this movie in terms of a sense of adventure,

00:05 an action sequence on a train was something we'd always wanted to do.

00:09 We wanted to build upon the previous films

00:14 and apply all of that knowledge to something practical and real

00:18 and bring this train sequence to another level.

00:21 There was not a surplus of trains available to be wrecked.

00:26 We had to build the trains if we wanted to destroy them.

00:29 To shoot it practically was extremely challenging.

00:34 Not just to execute, but also to design all the different train cars.

00:40 It could actually function on a working railroad track.

00:44 No one else in the world is doing this level of practical filmmaking

00:49 and it may never be done again.

00:52 The train sequence takes us on an adventure that's absolutely huge.

00:56 We have this big fight on the roof going 60 miles an hour through a real valley.

01:01 I've done fight scenes, but to do them on a moving train is trial by fire.

01:07 That's how Tom likes to do things.

01:10 He's going to now pull me off the train.

01:15 When you're hanging off a train carriage, Tom's a great person to have beside you.

01:21 Not only is he fearless, he is always looking to see how it's going to land for the audience.

01:27 The crash in the train involved multiplying factors of difficulty.

01:37 You'd be chasing the train as it goes off.

01:40 Every single camera had exactly one shot at getting it right.

01:44 It's not just a matter of going off.

01:47 Because if we do it all, we don't capture it right, what's the point?

01:50 3, 2, 1, action!

01:54 Everything you are seeing in this spectacular train sequence

02:05 is done to invest the audience in these characters.

02:08 Mission Impossible is the most extraordinary adventure franchise we've ever seen.

02:16 You can only do it with a team like this and with an actor like Tom.
