"Everything you see in this film, obviously, it's for real," Cruise continued. "All of the flying you see in this picture, everything is real. I really wanted to give you all an experience of what it is to be inside that aircraft."

He even called the film a ‘love letter to aviation’.The film is set to premiere on June 26th, 2020.
