Episode Notes

The pressure was immense, the hours were punishing and the shooting ratio was enormous. They had air craft carriers, F-18’s fighter jets, insane arial sequences, Covid lockdown, Tom Cruise was starring, Jerry Bruckheimer producing, Joe Kosinski directing and hundreds of millions of dollars on the line. No pressure.
