‘Mission: Impossible’ to shoot at Norway viewpoint
Cameras are to be rolling at the Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock), a plateau and spectacular viewpoint over the country’s mountainous landscape
Technical equipment to shoot Mission: Impossible 6 is being helicoptered in to southern Norway’s most famous tourist attraction — which means the site is being temporarily closed off for visitors.
Cameras are to be rolling Tuesday through Thursday at the Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock), a plateau and spectacular viewpoint over Norway’s mountainous landscape that sits more than 600 metres above the Lysefjord.
Tom Cruise, who broke his ankle while performing a stunt for the film during a London shoot, is expected to be on the Norway set.
The Stavanger Aftenblad newspaper said on Saturday that an airplane with filming gear has landed at a nearby airport and a helicopter was seen hoisting containers onto Pulpit Rock.
The film is scheduled to open in July 2018.
