The Mission Impossible team also closed off Whitehall and Parliament Square during the shoot which took place on Sunday night - from midnight until 4am.

The 61-year-old was shooting action-packed scenes for the latest film in the Mission Impossible franchise, where he plays field agent Ethan Hunt. The A-List celebrity is known to film his own action scenes rather than using stuntmen.

The as-yet-untitled Mission Impossible 8 is scheduled to be released on May 23, 2025 after a string of setbacks. It was originally going to be called Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part Two but this is likely to change.
