Quickly provided answers for frequently asked questions about MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL.

Did Tom Cruise really climb the building in Ghost Protocol?
No – the Burj Khalifa is way too tall to climb, especially for someone like Tom Cruise, so the crew built a replica Burj Khalifa for Tom to climb out of an abandoned McDonald’s Play Place.

Is Ghost Protocol part of Mission Impossible?
Yes, and always has been as foretold in the Cruise-anomicon, the book bound in L Ron Hubbard’s skin that serves as the franchise’s story bible!

Do I need to watch Mission Impossible 3 before Ghost Protocol?
Yes! Otherwise you won’t understand how Ethan Hunt is so good at lipreading!

Was Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol filmed in Russia?
Most of the Moscow scenes were shot in Epcot Center’s Little Russia land. If you look closely in the scene’s background, you can clearly see a man in a Mickey Mouse costume getting crushed by falling debris.
