THIS is the terrifying moment superstar Tom Cruise hangs off a plane in a death-defying stunt for the new Mission Impossible movie.
Hollywood daredevil Tom, 62, was totally fearless during scenes playing field agent Ethan Hunt in Oxfordshire today.
He took to the skies with fellow actor Esai Morales who resumes his rolse as baddie Gabriel in Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part Two.
And new photos from set show fans of the action-packed franchise won’t be disappointed.
The pair enaged in a fight scene as Tom proved he’s still got it, clinging onto a plane in a breath-taking move.
The star looked fitter than ever as he dangled from the wing of an American yellow Stearman biplane.
The aircrafts were formerly used during WWII.
Cruise, who loves to do his own stunts, also appeared to be without a parachute as as filming resumed on the eighth MI movie.
Story details for the new movie have been kept under wraps but Ethan’s mission in part one was a battle with artificial intelligence.
The Hollywood megastar famously broke an ankle while filming a scene for the sixth film Mission: Impossible – Fallout.
Tom was left in agony after his foot hit the wall leaving him with a mangled ankle during a stunt that saw him leaping from one building to another.
He told Graham Norton: “Obviously it was very, very painful and the doctors were concerned that I wasn’t going to be able to run again.
“It was a serious injury but I was like, ‘Look, I’ve got a movie, I’ve got a release date and my crew. I don’t want to lose my crew’.
“So I figured out how I would really rehab and train ten to 12 hours a day and I was back shooting in six weeks and I actually started running again in ten weeks and then sprinting in 12.
“All the sprints that the audience sees in the movie are actually on my broken foot.
“I still had the broken foot and I wasn’t able to do as many takes, but we figured out where I could do a limited amount. After I did it the first time, I couldn’t walk for three days.”
