During his interview, Tom chatted with Dave about filming on the tallest building in Dubai, the Burj Khalifa.

“I was watching the city being built for years and always with Mission: Impossible we are looking for international landscapes to celebrate the locations,” Tom told Dave. “This building is very beautiful so we had one of our producers call and say that we wanted to shoot there.”
