Tom Cruise was spotted walking through the National History Museum in London on Monday night while filming Mission Impossible 8.

The Hollywood A-lister, 61, is currently filming the latest installment of his blockbuster franchise and arrived at the main tourist spot in the British capital to get more footage in the can.

Tom sped through the museum doors and up and down the stairs as he returned to his long-running role as Ethan Slater, a highly skilled field agent and agent for the Impossible Mission Force.

The critically acclaimed star was also seen alongside his co-stars Vanessa Kirby and Esai Morales as the trio filmed some dramatic scenes.

The Crown actress stars as Alanna Mitsopolis in the film and looked shocked at one point while wrapped in a long black coat.

At one point, Vanessa was seen wearing a headgear and it appeared her character was trying to gain access to the building.

Just before Tom and Vanessa were spotted, Esai Morales was seen in his role as antagonist Gabriel.

The Bad Boys star donned a nice suit for the scenes he was working on and appeared to point angrily at a co-star.

Mission Impossible 8 is currently unnamed, but will most likely be called Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two, as it is a direct sequel to Part One which was released in 2023.

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One underperformed at the box office compared to the previous films in the franchise, despite Tom’s attempts to extend the series.

The actor was concerned that Oppenheimer would overshadow the film, as it required the same limited screens.

He was proven right when Oppenheimer earned nearly $400 million more than Mission: Impossible at the box office.

The Mission: Impossible film series, which begins in 1996, is based on a 1966 television series of the same name.

Last week, Tom embodied his secret agent alter ego and flew his Mission: Impossible cast and crew to Longcross Studios during the M25 closure to continue progressing filming.

Last week, a five-mile stretch of the motorway was closed in both directions due to a planned closure near Surrey, while a bridge was demolished and a new portal installed in a £317 million upgrade project.

Filming for Mission: Impossible took place near the stretch of road between junctions 10 and 11 which closed at 9pm on Friday evening and remained closed until Monday.

To get around the delay, Tom reportedly used a helipad in Battersea to fly the cast and crew of Mission: Impossible 8 to Surrey’s Longcross Studios.
