Super Bowl 2018: 8 Major Reveals From The Trailers

7. Ethan Hunt Snaps (And The Helicopter Stunt) - Mission: Impossible Fallout

Paramount's big offering for the big game was the first look at Mission: Impossible Fallout, the sixth instalment in the long-running M:I franchise.

Tom Cruise has been doing this for over 20 years now, so perhaps it's understandable that Ethan Hunt finally breaks in this movie, which is what we see unfold in the trailer. As Cavill explains, a man can only take so much of being betrayed by his own government, and we see Hunt snap here and stop being the good guy, which looks like terrible news for his enemies.

There's also a good tease of the much-hyped helicopter stunt, which sees Hunt dangling from the chopper in scenes that'll give you vertigo. M:I 6 looks to be turning the dial up on the stunts yet again, which is no mean feat given the franchise's past.
