Discuss Henry Cavill

A thread for MI6.

While discussing the sixth film in the franchise, "Mission: Impossible — Fallout," at CinemaCon on Wednesday, Cruise detailed one of the film's action sequences, in which Cruise's Ethan Hunt jumps from a plane at nearly 30,000 feet to catch Henry Cavill's free-falling character.

To get the three shots that he and director Christopher McQuarrie (who returns after directing "Mission Impossible — Rogue Nation") wanted, Cruise jumped out of a C-17 plane 106 times.

What did he say that was not correct?

Tom Cruise went ballistic on the Mission: Impossible 7 crew for breaking COVID protocols...

astonished

But clap

Is anybody shocked that TC went nuts on set? rofl Unlike Christian Bale, another white rich but non-scientoligist who went bananas on set, TC had a good reason.

It takes one positive test to get the whole production shut down. The Covid-19 Compliance Supervisor (C19CS) can shut the production down if protocols are ignored. The studio and insurance don’t want to waste money. Cast and crew don’t want to spend extra time on a project. They want to finish and move on to other things. TC is the star and one of the producers. He and McQ are the producers that are always on set. The C19CS is probably breathing down their necks. Word in gossip city is that TC used £500K of his own money to rent a boat to keep the crew safe. Apparently, that happened while they were in Norway. If that’s true, TC seems to go some extra miles to keep everybody safe. Imagine how he felt when he caught some idiots breaking the rules.

So MI7 doesn’t cast young guys?

Mark Gatiss

Charles Parnell

But most of the women cast are in their thirties.

39 – Hayley Atwell
37 – Rebecca Ferguson
34 – Pom Klementief
32 – Vanessa Kirby

Where are the eye candies for the female audience? Men are not the only ones watching these films.

Remind me to have a serious talk with McQ. He must change this in MI8. rage

Isn’t TC eye candy enough for ye? Isn’t he your other hubby? rolling_eyes

I really want to see McQ’s reaction. I want to see his face when someone your age tells him who to cast in his films. rofl

There are rumors that TC and HA are a couple. The rumor started in December. But some said it was an attempt by TC’s publicist to change the narrative. The rumor started right after the COVID yelling incident. But there were rumors about him dating RF during MI5 and there were rumors about him dating VK during MI6. So who knows?

More than one eye candy in a film never killed anybody. rolling_eyes

He'll be delighted. zany_face

51 Things We Learned from the 'Mission: Impossible - Fallout' Commentary

30 – The sequence where Ethan and August kick out the windshield needed a second take as Cavill’s first kick sent it flying through the air. “I was like ‘Hey Superman, try to make it look hard. Give it some effort!’ says McQuarrie.”

  • All you need is good people.

To our indomitable, unstoppable, unrelenting cast and crew:

Even under the best of circumstances, it should have been impossible.

Even having seen it, we can’t believe what you’ve achieved.

Words can never adequately express our gratitude and admiration - not only to you, but to your loved ones.

You are the best in the world.

The MI7 production had everything. Even TC’s car was stolen. Did you send him a postcard to cheer him up?

Did Leah Remini comment? She called TC’s Corona outburst PR. It was TC’s way to show Scientology takes Corona seriously. He even talked like the Scientology leader. Maybe the stolen car is PR for Scientology too.

@Sue-Yin said:

The poor man was robbed, Sue. I was going to send him something more personal than a cold postcard. I wanted to send him a pic of me in a clit cover with my wild curls covering my breasts and butt. You know, to leave something to the imagination. But then I remembered that McQ will probably convince TC to do some crazy death-defying stunts. If something goes wrong (God forbid), my pic might end up in the hands of some perv. So I decided against it and did what a good Catholic should do: I prayed for him. pray

@Cashmere said:

No. Maybe the hag decided to follow my advice. Someone should bring down the Catholic church. rofl

No shock that he talks the same. He’s been in that group for centuries. Duh! That happens consciously or unconsciously when you’re part of a group.

@Blue-Rose said:

The idea that TC knows what a clit cover is made me laugh for like five minutes straight. laughing My brain kept telling me: Why would Tom know that? Why would Tom know that? Exactly. Why or how would TC know what the heck a clit cover is? I hear he doesn’t wander around in cyber world. I doubt he even knows who the Kardashians are. An intern probably posts things on his socials.

@Sue-Yin said:

Well, the good news for TC is that he’s not the only man who doesn’t know anything about women’s undies. I’m pretty sure HC and McQ don’t know what a clit cover is either. It’s not mainstream yet, Sue. BTW, if TC knows the name of women’s undies, you’ll be the first to say it’s weird and maybe imply he’s moonlighting as a crossdresser or something in silly attempt to annoy me. rolling_eyes

From now on, my mission, which I choose to accept, is to keep a close eye on TC’s knowledge of women’s undergarments. I’ll annoy you even if he just know that women’s underwear is also called panties. stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes

Until such time, though, we can have some fun with TC’s crazy real-life stunts. He can park his helicopter anywhere. That’s so cool!

I don’t think there’s a boring day in TC’s life. Some British cows may not be his fan, though. rofl

Man stunned as Tom Cruise lands helicopter during his hike while filming MI:7 in Lake District

Last night Andras, who was hiking with pal Tutyi, said: “I certainly wasn’t expecting to bump into Tom Cruise during my hike. When I realised who it was I was obviously totally flabbergasted.

“But he was really friendly and offered to have his picture taken. He looked like he was having a great time but was also clearly involved in some serious work for the filming.

“By the time he parachuted away there was a little crowd gathered but Tom didn’t show any sign of nerves. He obviously loves the thrill of being involved in his own stunts.”

Colleagues with Cruise said they were in the area testing a new 'prototype wing'.

The actor was performing more parachute jumps in the UK's Lake District when scrambling devices used to prevent drones interfering made the animals collapse in confusion.

A source explained: "A high frequency noise was used to prevent drones flying near him during the parachute jumps but the tech was very strong and made an entire nearby field of cows fall over.

"Thankfully, they were OK once the scrambling device was switched off."

While the cattle might not be his biggest fans, Tom continued the charm offensive he has embarked on while filming across the UK.

He thanked some locals "for letting me be in a county of such beauty".

One who chatted to him with pals said: "We talked about the film and he said he loves parachute jumping and he's been hiking here a few times.

"He wasn't in a rush to get off and treated us like friends."

Should we be worried about MI7? Word is that NTTD did poorly in the US because it doesn’t appeal to younger people anymore. JB looks his age, was too effeminate and many seems to think that a woman takes over the 007 title in the film. The ending seems to anger people too.

Deadline reports that 39% of NTTD’s audience was be between 18-34 vs Venom’s 64%.

No. Maybe the hag decided to follow my advice. Someone should bring down the Catholic church. rofl

People might think you bothered the hag.

That happens consciously or unconsciously when you’re part of a group.

I think it’s consciously or subconsciously. I have noticed English speakers use that, but Google doesn’t translate to the English word subconsciously.

Some British cows may not be his fan, though. rofl

I thought you called British women cows. Then I saw “while the cattle might not be his biggest fans”. joy
