There it is, the highly anticipated helicopter stunt! It involves Ethan climbing up a rope hanging from the helicopter while it is in flight, and taking over piloting. This stunt seems to be part of a larger sequence where he is being chased by August Walker, who has his own flying craft…only he is armed with a machine gun.

I included this brief cutaway scene from the montage of Cruise’s stunts because I found it hilarious, a moment where the movie winks at the franchise’s own penchant for going overboard with its action sequences. “What the hell is he doing?” Ilsa asks, bewildered. “I find it best not to look,” Benji (Simon Pegg) replies, which is a wonderfully self-aware moment.

Finally, here’s August Walker in full-on Beast mode, ostensibly shooting at Ethan Hunt as he desperately tries to commandeer and pilot a helicopter. The trailer has been intriguingly vague about whether August will be the true villain of the movie, so it’s possible that we could be fooled into thinking he’s Ethan’s foe through a series of clever editing tricks and red herrings. He’s the one, after all, who casts doubt over Ethan’s loyalties, asking, “How many times has Hunt’s government betrayed him, disavowed him, cast him aside? How long before a man like that has had enough?”
