Vienna Operahouse

In Mission Impossible Rogue Nation, foiling (temporarily) an assassination attempt on the Chancellor, Ethan and Ilsa remain persons of interest and are only able to escape the scene by rappelling from the roof of the theatre. Yes, another real stunt, and that really is the Wiener Staatsoper (Vienna State Opera).

In Mission Impossible Rogue Nation, the vacant ‘warehouse’ in which the IMF team gathers is an upper floor of the Farmiloe Building, 28-36 St John Street in Clerkenwell, EC1. Now used as an event space and filming location, the empty Farmiloe previously provided interiors for Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises as well as the same director’s Inception.
