Critics Choice Awards: 'Top Gun: Maverick' producer shares Tom Cruise's billion-dollar secret

'Top Gun: Maverick' producer tells Fox News Digital ‘nobody works harder’ than Tom Cruise and reveals whether another sequel is coming.

Tom Cruise's "Mission: Impossible" co-star, Vanessa Kirby, is sharing details about the actor filming his own stunts.

Kirby, who stars as White Widow in "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One," recalled witnessing Cruise parachute off a motorcycle while going off a cliff in Iceland with "no fear."

"He did it many times in one day," Kirby told Variety. "He did it consecutively … and repeatedly so he could capture all the different angles and sides of it."

If Cruise ever gets nervous, he sure doesn't show it.

"He was just so calm," the actress recalled. "He had no fear. He just found it exhilarating. That kind of belief in cinema and what one could achieve and his passion for it is so inspiring. He kind of believes he can do the impossible and then he does. … I love being a part of the franchise. I’m really excited to come back."

In December, Cruise shared a clip of him performing the "greatest stunt in cinema history."

"This is far and away the most dangerous thing we've ever attempted," Cruise said at the beginning of the clip. "We're going to shoot it in Norway, and it will be a motorcycle jump off a cliff into a base jump."

The camera panned a massive ramp that ended on the edge of a huge cliff as Cruise said, "I've wanted to do it since I was a little kid.

"And it all comes down to one thing — the audience."
