Tom Cruise had just the treat to help Hayley Atwell through those death-defying stunts in 'Mission: Impossible.'
at the Rose Theater at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City on Monday, and ET's Nischelle Turner spoke with Atwell about how Cruise saved her from adrenal fatigue.
"The virtual train carriage with Tom," Atwell said when asked about the most challenging stunt she did in the film."So, it goes from horizontal to vertical in six seconds, so we'd have to sprint on an incline and reach the bar before we were dangling over a ravine." She continued,"And that to me -- I mean I got adrenal fatigue at one point, and I just kind looked like a zombie, and Tom was like, 'Are you okay?' and I was like, 'I don't even know, Tom, what's going on with me. I don't know.' And he said, 'I know what you need. You need some chocolate,' and I was like, 'Yes I do.'"
Atwell said Cruise swiftly whipped out some chocolate and she was feeling good in no time -- so good in fact, that they were able to do the stunt a few more times."Richmond Park in London -- I can give you a tour of all the hills I ran, where I cried, where I peed behind a tree, where I wanted to take a nap, where I called my mom going, 'I don't think I can do this,'" the 41-year-old actress quipped.
