A deleted scene from Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning has been revealed, and director Christopher McQuarrie says the intense footage was ultimately cut from the film because they "didn't need it."
"We'd become so efficient shooting underwater [that] we were able to get extra material of Tom trying to get into the submarine, having difficulty accessing it, in case later we wanted to create a sense of pressure," McQuarrie says in the clip (via IGN). "And again, Tom was checking his dive computer, the audience saw this ticking clock... something that's very common in Mission: Impossible. But in this movie, it just didn't work."
