Emily Blunt ‘almost killed’ Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise is renowned for his dangerous action stunts, but when he chose to step back and experience the action scenes directly; his life was almost in danger. Cruise co-starred with Emily Blunt in the 2014 movie Edge of Tomorrow, and during a car chase sequence, Blunt almost killed Cruise.

“I hear him going [quietly], ‘Brake. Brake. Brake,’” Blunt recalled of a scene that involved a tricky bit of stunt driving. (The pair did their own stunts on the film.) “‘Em, brake the car! Brake the car!’

And I left it too late and so drove us into a tree and I almost killed Tom Cruise,” Blunt finished.

However, it didn’t bother the duo as they closed the chapter by laughing off at that experience.
