Revealed: MI6 title and how Tom Cruise broke his ankle

Two truths and a lie:

1. Tom Cruise has joined Instagram @TomCruise
2. The new MI6 title is “Mission Impossible – Fallout”
3. Tom Cruise broke his ankle and messed up a stunt shot during filming

Okay. The lie is obviously #3. Even breaking an ankle WILL NOT make Tom Cruise mess up a stunt shot.

The actor appeared on Graham Norton with co-stars Rebecca Ferguson, Henry Cavill, and Simon Pegg, and explained: “I was chasing Henry and was meant to hit the side of the wall and pull myself over but the mistake was my foot hitting the wall. I knew instantly my ankle was broken and I really didn’t want to do it again so just got up and carried on with the take. I said, ‘It’s broken. That’s a wrap. Take me to hospital’ and then everyone got on the phone and made their vacation arrangements.”

Speaking about the story of the film, Tom added: “It takes into account all the previous Mission Impossible plots and it’s the fallout of all the good things we did that are now being used against us.”

“Mission: Impossible – Fallout” finds Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his IMF team (Alec Baldwin, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames) along with some familiar allies (Rebecca Ferguson, Michelle Monaghan) in a race against time after a mission gone wrong.  Henry Cavill, Angela Bassett, and Vanessa Kirby also join the dynamic cast with filmmaker Christopher M^cQuarrie returning to the helm.

See the footage of the now famous stunt-gone-wrong in the clip below. Warning – not for the squeamish.

The trailer for the film will be released next week during the Superbowl, with the film to be released (on schedule!) in July.
