Clad in his character’s trademark dark bomber jacket and jeans combo, the actor looked effortlessly cool as he wandered the set and smiled at fellow squad members inbetween takes.
Later getting back to business, he was seen performing a number of spreads before taking to the wheel and shooting the car pursue for the activity flick.
Tearing around the Paris streets, the gig is then made more arousing for fans after the car emerges to collide en route – causing the bonnet to fly open.
Only adding to the drama was Harry Brown actor Sean Harris, who then emerged from the cracked down vehicle in a rigorous strait jacket, adding to the excitement.
The Top Gun starlet will reprise his role of special agent Ethan Hunt in the newest installment, due for release in 2018.
While most details of the fresh film remain unknown, it has been reported thrill-seeker Tom will perform the fattest stunt seen to date in his career.
Skydance Media CEO David Ellison told Collider: ‘What Tom is doing in this movie I believe will top anything that’s come before. It is absolutely unbelievable—he’s been training for a year.
‘It is going to be, I believe, the most epic and unbelievable thing that Tom Cruise has done in a movie, and he has been working on it since right after Rogue Nation came out. It’s gonna be mind-blowing.’
Albeit the original Mission Unlikely is now twenty one years old, the Oscar nominee hardly looks any different from then, making him still the top man for the job.
However Tom and Sean starlet in the film alongside a entire host of other big names, including Alec Baldwin, Superman starlet Henry Cavill, Simon Pegg and The Crown’s Vanessa Kirby.
InTouch Weekly reported earlier this year that Tom was instrumental in casting stunning co-star Vanessa for the role, after watching her on The Crown.
A source told the magazine that ‘Tom flipped for her work’ on Golden Globe-winning series, where she played Princess Margaret.
‘He told the other MI producers that he had to have Vanessa for a crucial role in the franchise’s sixth instalment,’ the insider added. ‘He’s deep throated away by her endless charm and energy.’
As well as Paris, filming is also set to take place in London and Fresh Zealand.
