"Mr Cruise was kind enough to offer a photo with us all and has given us permission to share. Thank you for choosing Lovage - we would be thrilled to welcome you all back again!"

The film star had previously been in Derbyshire in 2021 while filming Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One which featured a train going over the edge of the former Darlton quarry in Stoney Middleton.

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part Two is slated for release in May 2025 and is expected to be the final film featuring Cruise’s character Ethan Hunt, who has been at the heart of the franchise since 1996.
