Couldn't find this when I searched to post the trailer (created new thread that mods will delete)
Looking forward to this, Imax screening required yet again. This is how a teaser should be done, show it off without joining events together and let it 'speak' for itself.

Just saw it come up in my recommendations then was going to post it here, looks great, sadly not out till next year.
I've grown really fond of this franchise now, prefer it over 007.
Hayley Atwell is also joining the cast.

Trying to think of another long-running Hollywood franchise that is anywhere near as consistently good as MI, and I'm coming up with nothing. Apart from MI2, they've all been great.
You mean the magical Triumphs with the ability to switch betwixt on and off road tyres on the fly?

Exactly why I prefer it over 007. The last 4 movies have been excellent and Tom does all his own stunts.

Saw the trailer last night, looks cracking. The series has gotten progressively better with each one since no2, whose only real positive is that it stopped us getting Dougray Scott as Wolverine.

Watch an extended behind the scenes look at the biggest stunt in cinema history.

Practise makes perfect.

Goldeneye already did the "ride a bike off a ramp into a base jump" stunt so there must be much more to this MI stunt thats still being kept secret, other than it's Cruise doing it rather than a stuntman.

Did it? When was that in the film, genuinely can't remember.
Goldeneye was Bond riding a bike off a cliff and then ending up in a plane, slightly different and lots of cgi..

Yeap I agree, it was three separate parts combined into one "stunt" - The stuntman rode the bike off a cliff and into a base jump (the bit MI are replicating) so that the stuntman doesn't die, then a separate stunt did the airborne skydive into the diving plane, then there was the CGI/Effects of Brosnan getting into the plane. So as I mentioned, other than it being Tom Cruise doing the stunt, we've already seen a bike ride of a cliff and the rider have to parachute so maybe there's something else to add like his landing zone is a moving rather than just hitting a mark in an open field to incraese the stunts Wow factor.
I don't know, maybe I'm being to literal when I read the "biggest stunt in cinema history". I mean it's definitely the first time we'll have seen an actor do something like this which could make it the biggest "actor" stunt but so far the physical action, irrespective of who is performing it, we've seen before I think. Outside of cinema this type of stunt has been done a lot, even on push bikes as well as motorcross and, as I follow that kind of "Nitro Circus/Xtreme Sports" stuff, maybe I've just seen it before that the OMG factor of an actor doing something dozens of others have done is lost a little on me, even though it really is still amazing that a 60yo actor is doing these extreme things.
Apart from that, it was pretty good when near the end he nicked the cure with the fake mask. Overall it was pretty good.
