Where was Mission: Impossible Fallout filmed? Filming Locations Guide
Posted by Ra Moon
Tom Cruise keeps on pushing his limits creating very dangerous stunts for each new installment of Mission: Impossible. Almost no green screen or special effects are allowed in the spy action film series.
The veteran star is always performing his own stunts: Cruise learned to pilot a helicopter to shoot risky maneuvers with it. The one who jumps out of a plane at a high altitude is him.

The scene where Cruise jumps from a C-17 military plane at 25000 feet was filmed near Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates.
The country is becoming a popular filming location destination. The Michael Bay action movie that takes place in the invented nation of Turgistan, 6 Underground, was also partially recorded here.
Hunt and Walker fall over Le Grand Palais near the Champs-Élysées in Paris, the monumental exhibition hall where the White Widow party is held.
This stunning art-nouveau complex made of steel and glass was built for the Universal Exposition of 1900.

The White Widow's mansion is the Hôtel de Soubise, a Baroque palace located in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris.
This impressive building nowadays hosts the Musée des Archives Nationales.

A large part of the movie was filmed in Paris. Locations in the French capital include the Trocadéro Esplanade near the Eiffel Tower, where Walker meets CIA Director Sloane.

The ambush was filmed along the river at Quai d'Austerlitz, next to the Pont de Bercy (Bercy Bridge) which carries a metro line.
The helicopter lands at the Ministry of Economy and Finance building.

The scene pictured with the truck was filmed on Rue de Nevers, one of the narrowest streets in Paris.
In the next sequence, boats on the Seine River approach the Austerlitz Viaduct.
During the chase scene, the movie shows well-known monuments of the city including Opera Garnier and Arc de Triomphe, which was closed to traffic for 90 minutes for filming.
All these Parisian landmarks are also featured as Emily in Paris locations.

The sequence with the boats and the underground river was shot at the Canal Saint-Martin, one of the locations where John Wick 4 was filmed.

The garage scene with the police officer was filmed on Alboni Street, under the Passy Metro Station located near Trocadéro.

The metallic bridge from where Ilsa shoots the BMW is the crossroads of Rue du Rocher, Rue de Madrid, and Rue Portalis in the 8th arrondissement.

After turning into the Rue des Barres (with the staircase), Ilsa speeds through the Galerie de Valois on her motorcycle.
The street where Ethan runs her over is Rue de Valois.

In London, the impossible team meets under the Pennington Street Warehouse vaults in the St Katharine's and Wapping area.

The warehouse is located in the small Canon Aly, and the chase sequence shot in St. Paul's Cathedral starts from there.

The building where Ethan runs over a skylight is the Grange St Paul's Hotel.
Cruise delayed the production for a few weeks after he injured himself while jumping between Baynard House and The Mermaid Theatre.
After running through the Blackfriars Station roof, Walker takes a helicopter on top of the iconic Tate Modern gallery tower.

The scenes taking place in Kashmir were filmed in awesome New Zealand.

The spectacular sequence with the helicopters was shot over Lake Quill in the Fiordland National Park.
This wondrous lake basin overflows into Sutherland Falls, with a drop of almost 2,000 feet.

After crashing the choppers, Hunt and Walker went to the other side of the world to continue fighting.
The world-famous landmark of Preikestolen or Pulpit Rock in Lysefjorden, Norway was the setting for the stunning last scene.
Not to be confused with Trolltunga, the troll tongue rock also featured in the Netflix series Ragnarok, set in the town of Edda, Norway.

This was great, thanks!
ReplyDeleteSo many thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI'm desperatly trying to find out the street name where Ilsa is standing on the bridge with the sharpshooting rifle and then drives down the stairs on her motorcycle to follow Ethan on the street below. The same bridge and stairs are seen in a scene of "The Dreamers".
ReplyDeleteAnyone knows that filming location? Based the scene just before that one it should be in the vicinity of the Trocadero. (I know films usually don't take geography very seriously, but in The Dreamers, the scene before the one at the bridge with the stairs was also at the Trocadero, making me think it might actually be nearby.
Hey Brandis, I hope you are happy, we found it for you following the lead of an 'église en restauration à Paris' (you can see it at the end of the scene). This way we came across the Saint-Augustin church and your bridge.
DeleteMay I ask why it was so desperate?
DeleteDo you know where the underground scenes were filmed? The part where Alec Baldwin was killed.
ReplyDeleteA less obvious filming location is the underground spot where the team meets, the vaults of the Pennington Street Warehouse (St Katharine's & Wapping area). Image courtesy of Paramount Pictures and Paul the Archivist - Map
Deletewhat about the place ... a tree line where ethan and ilsa meet???? ... Movie time 1:15:00
ReplyDeleteEthan meets Ilsa later nearby in the Jardin du Palais Royal
DeleteJust watched Fallout for the first time last night, and wondered where the fantastic cliffs were (if real at all!) - thanks so much for the info, and the pics. Great site, very useful, so thanks a lot from the UK.
ReplyDeleteI love every place
ReplyDeleteThe cliffs are real for sure: Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock), Lysefjorden, Norway. It's a well-known tourist attraction that you can visit (for free, of course, this is Scandinavia).
ReplyDeleteBut, please don't try to do Cruise's stunt if you go there, even though the place in itself is worth the journey. Climbing this cliff most certainly is a "don't attempt to do this at home" situation. The fall, in reality, is much deeper than it seems in the movie and the bottom is as hard as the rest of the rock.
Still, you should go there and you will never forget - and I'm neither a local nor a Norwegian.
