The Countdown Is Not Helping
Yes, you heard that right – Tom Cruise is in South Africa, and he's not just here to soak up the sun, go on a Big 5 safari, and enjoy a few braais (that's barbecues for the non-South Africans out there). No, Cruise is in town to film the latest instalment of the "Mission: Impossible" franchise, and let's just say the stakes are high (as per usual).
Red light! Green light!
But don't just take our word for it – locals have been spotting Cruise all over the place. According to social media, (in true “spy” fashion) Cruise landed his helicopter at the Killarney Country Club in Johannesburg earlier this month. Then, Twitter user @Blademale, also shared a photo and short video of Tom Cruise driving through KwaZulu-Natal, which they captured while he passed by – an unexpected road trip surprise for sure!
