By Steven McIntoshEntertainment reporter
Tom Cruise launched the seventh instalment of The Mission : Impossible franchise at The Film 's London Premiere on Thursday.
The Actor described Dead Reckoning - Part One as the " biggest moment" of The Film series to date.
His co-stars Simon Pegg , Hayley Atwell , Rebecca Ferguson and Vanessa Kirby joined him on the Red Carpet .
Critics' reviews of The Film will be published on 5 July, before The Film 's release on the 14th.
Cruise said the two-part film marked the " culmination of all my skills" and promised even those unfamiliar with the series would have an " epic adventure".
Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One sees him reprise his role of Ethan Hunt , as the Impossible Mission Force (IMF) set out to track down a terrifying new weapon that threatens humanity.
The Film was shot partly in the UK and features the usual death-defying stunts, including one in which Cruise jumps off a cliff on a motorcycle.
Speaking at The Film 's London Premiere , He Said that even as a child he had always wanted to make movies, and had devoted himself to taking on new challenges and learning new skills.
" Since I was a little kid, that's what I did, " the 60-year-old told the PA news agency.
" When I was three or Four Years old I was jumping off my roof and Climbing Trees - I wanted to make movies, I wanted adventure, I wanted to travel The World .
" So that's what I do, I train - I really enjoy taking on different skills, to work to become competent in everything that I do. "
He continued: " It was actually years of training. . because I fly jets, I fly helicopters, I fly aeroplanes. I'm a skydiver, I'm a parachuter, race cars, motorcycles.
" [This film] was a culmination of all my skills. . There 's a lot going on There 's a lot Happening . . [But ] The Most important part is getting The Shot and getting The Story across. "
The Process of shooting The Film was hampered by Covid-19 lockdowns, with an audio recording of for apparently flaunting guidelines leaked in December 2020.
" In 2020 There was a lot going on that was a huge challenge just trying to figure out How To make a film in those circumstances, " he told PA.
" We kind of wrote the rulebook on How To do it and it was an extraordinary experience just sort of Getting Through - it made The Shoot a little longer, But I think it's made The Film better. "
Every Mission: Impossible film in The Franchise to date has made at least $100m at the worldwide Box Office .
The Most successful So Far is The Sixth instalment, Mission: Impossible - Fallout , which took $220m, although the early films were released at The Turn of The Millennium and their Box Office takings are not adjusted for inflation.
Cruise's other film credits include Oblivion, Vanilla Sky , Collateral, Jerry Maguire , Top Gun and its sequel Top Gun : Maverick.
