There was a fire on the set of Mission: Impossible 7 that needed to be put out.

The filming of Mission: Impossible was suspended in February due to the epidemic, and now it has finally resumed. However, a motorcycle caught fire on the set recently, and it was not a stunt required for the filming.

An action scene in Mission: Impossible 7 encountered an accident during the filming. The scene took 6 weeks to prepare and cost 2 million pounds, making it one of the most expensive shots ever shot in the UK. The accident will cause a significant delay in the filming progress.

According to The Sun, “This scene presented a great challenge for overall planning, not to mention the construction of the scene for several weeks. But when the day of the official shooting came, something went wrong.”

The original plan was for a stuntman to drive a motorcycle up an uphill slope, then jump off the bike and land safely on a padded area while the motorcycle fell to the ground nearby. But plans didn't work out as fast as they should.

According to sources from The Sun, the motorcycle's tires overheated while driving, and when the motorcycle fell to the landing point, the cardboard box used for cushioning ignited. The motorcycle itself then caught fire, and the smoke produced was so severe that the nearby airspace was forced to close. Fortunately, no one was injured in the accident.

The source also claims that the whole thing made Tom Cruise very angry.

I hope the impact of this accident can be controlled. The release date of "Mission Impossible" has been postponed to November 19, 2021. I don't know how much impact this accident will have on the filming progress.
