A police car, an out-of-control Fiat 500, a motorcycle… the 60-year-old actor did all the action scenes without special effects. And that, despite the traffic and the narrowness of the streets, which did not put him in trouble. Indeed, “cobblestones make driving unpredictable,” says Christopher McQuarrie, the film’s director and producer. “We managed to shoot this amazing sequence. (…) The result is brilliant. Without this team and an actor like Tom, it would be impossible.”
Handcuffed to his co-star Hayley Atwell, Tom Cruise was even forced to drive with one hand “for real” and “no cheating”, claims stunt coordinator Wade Eastwood. “Tom, who rushed through the streets of Rome with one arm, I will never forget him,” commented Hayley Atwell, who portrays Grace in the film. Waiting more than a month to see the result on the big screen.
