Tom Cruise has touched down in Sydney ahead of the highly anticipated premiere of his new movie, Mission Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.

The Hollywood superstar arrived in the Harbour City by private jet on Saturday morning, two days before the blockbuster film premiere at Darling Harbour’s International Convention Centre (ICC) on Monday night.

The 60-year-old will walk the red carpet at the event, accompanied by director Christopher McQuarrie and co-stars Simon Pegg, Hayley Atwell and Pom Klementieff.

Upon disembarking from a private jet in Sydney this morning, Cruise – wearing a dark coat, pants and New York Yankees cap – was taken straight to his penthouse suite at the Park Hyatt Hotel in the city.

The five-star hotel is positioned on the banks of the gorgeous harbour, overlooking the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House, which Cruise couldn’t help but admire.

In the movie, the actor once again plays the role of highly skilled field agent Ethan Hunt in the action-adventure – this time, Hunt and the IMF team must track down a dangerous new weapon that threatens all of humanity.

Although it is the seventh instalment in the franchise, Cruise – who famously does all of his stunts in his action films – believes it can draw in both returning and new audiences.

“[It has] submarines, it has the desert, it has Rome, beautiful locations in Abu Dhabi, Norway, a train that we built, action on the train, and a very engrossing story with a really beautiful cast, an amazing, very charismatic cast,” he told Collider recently.

“I think when you look at this movie, it really defines what I think about cinema and why because you look at this kind of cast, you look at a brilliant ensemble cast, and the kind of story is very engrossing.”

Cruise and the cast are fresh from their visit to South Korea, where they promoted the film to thousands of fans in Seoul.

He also happily took a backseat to his female co-stars – Atwell, Klementieff and Vanessa Kirby – when he played photographer and allowed them their moment to shine.

“This guy loves to give his leading ladies the spotlight,” Atwell captioned a video of the moment she shared on Instagram.
