BMW has provided an M3 and S 1000 RR motorcycle for Tom Cruise's latest film, Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation.
Hasn't BMW tied up with the M:I film series before?
Yes, it provided vehicles for the preceding instalment in the franchise, 2011's Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol.
Go on, then, give me a précis of the plot.
In brief, the M:I - RN sees a highly-trained and shadowy team of rogue agents trying to hunt down Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his Impossible Mission Force (IMF), who themselves are a highly-trained and shadowy team of agents. The film co-stars Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Alec Baldwin, Rebecca Ferguson and Sean Harris, and is due for a theatrical release in the US on July 31.
Any chance I can see some of the action now?
Yes, the official trailer was released recently, so enjoy this adrenaline-filled teaser right here and watch how stuntmen get the best from the 431hp/550Nm M3. Which doesn't look like it escapes the movie in pristine condition...
