Amidst a crowd of cheering fans and alongside stars Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg and Rebecca Ferguson and director Christopher McQuarrie, the new BMW M3 and the new BMW 7 Series were featured on the red carpet.

Following a successful partnership with “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” in 2011, the BMW Group placed their automobiles, motorcycles and technologies at the disposal of the production crew at Paramount Pictures for the second time. “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation” will arrive at cinemas in Germany on August 6.
