Rogue Nation about IMF teamwork: Cruise

“This instalment is about the complications of friendship that happen when enormous pressure comes down on these guys. Who do you trust and who should you not trust? Who is really going to be there for you when the chips are down? Who is going to keep their head under fire? And how can they work together to make things happen?

“I think Rogue Nation is about finding that intimate aspect of true teamwork in the face of pure evil,” Cruise said in a statement.

“In this film, Ethan and his team come up against a terrifying villain who is a match for them, someone who challenges them physically, intellectually and emotionally. 

Right from the film's first moments, Ethan and the team are on their toes, desperately moving from one situation to the next. The action is gripping but true to Mission: Impossible, within the suspense, there's a lot of humour and romance,” Cruise added.

Releasing on August 7, Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation is produced by Skydance and will be distributed in India by Viacom18 Motion Pictures.
