Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation might have the biggest plot twists of any Mission: Impossible film (and that's saying something in a franchise that regularly uses those face-swapping masks). According to Tom Cruise, who recently spoke about the upcoming sequel to Us Weekly, the film's shaping up to be the biggest installment of the franchise so far.

"It's really a dream come true," said Cruise on the upcoming sequel. "This movie has a tremendous amount of action of course, but also intrigue and mission twists."

Cruise also spoke on the incredible stunt seen in the first Rogue Nation trailer- hanging off the door of a plane as it takes off into the air- flying up 5,000 feet into the air!

I was scared s-tless!" Cruise revealed "As always, I will do everything I can to entertain an audience and put as many people into your theaters...I'm an aerobatic pilot and I've always wanted to do that."

We can't imagine ever wanting to hang off the side of a plane almost a mile in the air, but we're also not Tom Cruise.

Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation is the fifth film in the Mission: Impossible franchise, following 2011's Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol. The film is about Cruise's organization, the IMF, discovering something called the Syndicate- a nation of incredible assassins operating in secret. Cruise and his co-stars- Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames- will have to team up in order to stop the Syndicate for good.

Pegg also spoke on the film recently-

"It's going to be amazing. We had a great shoot. It was a lot of fun, some cool locations, and some great action."

"As Benji, I get to do a little bit more this time in terms of being an agent. He's grown with every film I've been in. He's become more and more capable. I think people are going to love it."

Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation will premiere on July 31, 2015.
