Boeing stearman, Aircraft model

Los Angeles, Oct 7 Hollywood star Tom Cruise has reportedly been learning to fly a World War II military plane for dogfight scenes in 'Mission: Impossible 8'.The 59-year-old star, who is known for performing his own stunts in his action blockbusters, has been spotted flying a 1943 Boeing Stearman Model 75 at the Duxford Airfield in Cambridgeshire in the UK, reports femalefirst.co.uk.The plane, which had two movie rigs on its wings, will be filmed in a chase with another wartime plane.The star has already begun his work as agent Ethan Hunt for 'Mission: Impossible 8', which is not slated for release until 2023, even though filming has only recently wrapped on the upcoming 'Mission: Impossible 7'.A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "Tom had started to learn to fly a Boeing Stearman biplane earlier this year for a major stunt scene in 'Mission: Impossible 8'. It's obviously a highly skilled task but as usual he has no plans to cut any corners or bring in a stuntman."The source added: "Filming has only just wrapped on 'Mission: Impossible 7' but Tom has not given himself a break. And trying to film jaw-dropping scenes with an 80-year-old plane is particularly dangerous."Cruise is also set to fly planes in 'Top Gun: Maverick' and previously promised fans that there has "never been" an aerial scene quite like the one that will be featured in the movie, which is a sequel to the 1986 hit 'Top Gun'.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
