Mission: Impossible 6: Fallout.....Expect great Stunt from Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise has admitted that, at the height of his stunt activity for Mission: Impossible - Fallout, he had to eat "three dinners" every night.
The 55-year-old actor who plays Ethan Hunt for the sixth time in the partly New Zealand-shot action movie, told Britain's Total Film magazine that the adrenaline of shooting certain scenes left him with some "fascinating" side-effects.
  "The adrenaline was going so hard that I would finish at the end of the day, and I'd have to go home and eat three meals.
"I'd have to have three dinners. My body couldn't get enough food and my legs ached from adrenal fatigue. It was fascinating."
 As well as a New Zealand-shot acrobatic helicopter sequence which Cruise got special training for, there was also a halo jump in Abu Dhabi and a rooftop leap in London (which went slightly south leaving Cruise with a broken ankle).
Fallout director Christopher McQuarrie admitted his star also shocked him and his crew when he took off on a motorcycle, despite the failure of the camera rigs designed to keep him safe.
I  turned to Tom and said, 'What do we do?' He just looked at his watch and was like, 'We've got to shoot man'. He got on the motorcycle and took off.
"We ended up with a much more visceral sequence. I was really surprised at how well it played."
Meanwhile, the movie's distributor Paramount Pictures has teamed up with Uber to produce a video poking fun at Cruise's penchant for doing his own stunts. It details what the star's "stunt double" did on the Fallout set.
Mission: Impossible: Fallout is scheduled for release in New Zealand on August 2.
