Hollywood star Tom Cruise talks about his latest film, "Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation," in a news conference at the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas in southern Seoul on Thursday. He was in Seoul to promote the movie together with director Christopher McQuarrie. "When Chris suggested it - do you wanna hang off an airplane - I said, 'OK, I'll try that,'" Cruise told reporters. He said they did "a lot of testing because physically, we didn't know what would happen to my body when the airplane takes off." The film, which opened in local cinemas Thursday, was in a neck-and-neck race with star-studded South Korean flick "Assassination," an ode to Korean independence fighters during Japan's colonial rule of Korea (1910-1945), to top the local box office. "Assassination," which hit local screens July 22, stars Jun Ji-hyun, the heroine of the mega-hit TV series “My Love from the Star," and actors Lee Jung-jae and Ha Jung-woo.
