Tom Cruise has ideas for new Mission Impossible films

Los Angeles: Actor Tom Cruise has revealed plans for more Mission Impossible movies, which will see him playing daredevil Ethan Hunt.

The 55-year-old actor returns as the roguish spy in the sixth movie of the series with the upcoming Mission: Impossible – Fallout, and he thinks there's still a lot of mileage left in the blockbuster franchise, reports metro.co.uk.

He said: "I have a lot of ideas about the next phase, about the next two or three, of where I want to go. You'll be able to see when you see this movie. It's very much the epic in all of this series."

"McQ (the film's director Christopher McQuarrie] and I talked about it and I was like, 'We've earned it with this franchise to blow it out of this way'," he added. It has been Cruise's longest running franchise, but he says it's never as easy to make one.

In the film, Cruise said there are daredevil stunts involving him carrying out a jump used by highly trained military personnel to enter hostile areas, and involves jumping out of a plane from heights and opening a parachute just 2,000 feet before the ground.
