Tom Cruise learning to fly World War II plane for ‘Mission: Impossible 8’

Published

Hollywood star Tom Cruise has reportedly been learning to fly a World War II military plane for dogfight scenes in ‘Mission: Impossible 8’.

The 59-year-old star, who is known for performing his own stunts in his action blockbusters, has been spotted flying a 1943 Boeing Stearman Model 75 at the Duxford Airfield in Cambridgeshire in the UK, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The plane, which had two movie rigs on its wings, will be filmed in a chase with another wartime plane.

The star has already begun his work as agent Ethan Hunt for ‘Mission: Impossible 8’, which is not slated for release until 2023, even though filming has only recently wrapped on the upcoming ‘Mission: Impossible 7’.

A source told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: “Tom had started to learn to fly a Boeing Stearman biplane earlier this year for a major stunt scene in ‘Mission: Impossible 8’. It’s obviously a highly skilled task but as usual he has no plans to cut any corners or bring in a stuntman.”

The source added: “Filming has only just wrapped on ‘Mission: Impossible 7’ but Tom has not given himself a break. And trying to film jaw-dropping scenes with an 80-year-old plane is particularly dangerous.”

Cruise is also set to fly planes in ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ and previously promised fans that there has “never been” an aerial scene quite like the one that will be featured in the movie, which is a sequel to the 1986 hit ‘Top Gun’.

‘I Won’t Blame Anyone’: Ajay Devgn Reacts To Controversy Over Pakistani Actress Hania Aamir’s Casting In Sardaar Ji 3

Published

Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn, who is gearing up for the release of Son of Sardaar 2, reacted to trolls criticising actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh for working with Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in his recently-released film Sardaar Ji 3.

On Friday (July 11), during the trailer launch event of Son of Sardaar 2, Ajay was asked about the backlash Diljit has been receiving in India ever since he shared the trailer of the film featuring Hania. While the film did not release in India, the actor faced backlash and a section of social media users also called him ‘anti-national’, ‘insensitive’ and ‘shameless’.

Reacting to it, Ajay said it wouldn’t be right on his part to take a side in the matter since he is not in Dosanjh’s shoes.

“I don’t know where the trolling is coming from, what’s right, what’s wrong. He must be dealing with his own problems. Others are speaking from their own point of view. So when there are two different perspectives, they can be resolved by sitting down and talking,” the actor reportedly said.

He added, “He’s thinking from his side, you’re thinking from yours. It doesn’t work that way. I won’t blame anyone. I won’t say that anyone is right or wrong in this.”

The trolling began after Diljit promoted his Punjabi film with Hania amid India-Pakistan tensions. FWICE had lashed out Diljit for collaborating with Hania despite a renewed ban on Pakistani celebs in India following the Pahalgam terror attack.

Earlier, it was reported that Diljit had been removed from his upcoming Bollywood film Border 2, and that Punjabi actor Ammy Virk might replace him in the sequel. However, Ammy’s team denied the rumours and clarified to Hindustan Times that there was no truth to the reports.

Also, a few days back, FWICE revealed that they lifted ban on Diljit after which he has been allowed to shoot for Border 2. Reportedly, the film body claimed that the patriotic film’s producer, Bhushan Kumar, pleaded them personally to let Diljit work.

Meanwhile, Sardaar Ji 3 released overseas on June 27 and it has become the highest-grossing Punjabi film of 2025.
