Mission Impossible? Tom Cruise tries to climb into UK prime minister’s car – POLITICO
Sunak’s car door did not open, and a laughing Cruise is then seen wandering over to the correct vehicle and apologizing shortly before Sunak and his entourage arrive.
Sunak, who seemingly faces Mission Impossible in his bid to be re-elected by Brits on July 4, was landing at the helipad after a short campaign visit to Devon in the southwest of England on Monday, as he tries to reverse the large polling lead enjoyed by the opposition Labour Party. The prime minister has been criticized for his persistent use of helicopter transportation during his premiership.
For his part Cruise has been filming scenes in England for the latest instalment of the Mission Impossible series, which is due for release next year.
Famously the two men share a likeness beyond their choice of vehicle — their diminutive. stature. Both stand at around 5ft 7 inches, and Sunak in particular has been mocked by his opponents over his height.
