    “The Rehearsal” has perhaps by no means been more true to its identify than in its Season 2 finale, “My Controls,” which not solely wraps up creator Nathan Fielder’s impassioned thesis on the necessity for higher communication in airplane cockpits, however casually charts his (intentional or not) two-year rehearsal course of to fly an actual passenger jet stuffed with actual folks, the place the stakes of airplane security are actual, too. 

    Fielder tends to favor to not talk about the method behind his tasks outdoors of what he and his group select to incorporate as a part of “The Rehearsal” itself. HBO respects that want and likewise retains pretty mum about how “The Rehearsal” was made. However the flight that Fielder captained from San Bernardino and again once more received the IndieWire group eager about how aerial sequences in movie and tv get authorised in any respect. Did Fielder have to lock the community attorneys assigned to Season 2 inside Nate’s Lizard Lounge throughout the two-hour and 10-minute flight? How was “The Rehearsal” cleared for takeoff?

    The secret for any form of stunt is danger administration, one thing that turns into infinitely extra complicated the extra specialised the motion is. Few would know that higher than Wade Eastwood, the stunt coordinator for the final 4 “Mission: Unattainable” movies — together with the lately launched “Mission Unattainable: The Closing Reckoning,” which, amongst different issues, options Tom Cruise flying and preventing on prime of a classic biplane. IndieWire reached out to Eastwood to ask about how a movie group goes about making ready to truly shoot a sequence within the sky.  

    “There is no such thing as a kind for a way you place somebody on the wing the place they’ll transfer round freely and do the loopy stunts that Tom’s going to do,” Eastwood informed IndieWire. “In case you get right into a forklift truck and also you’re going to drive it [on camera], then it’s a must to have this certification and also you put on steel-toed footwear and all that. That’s regular. However this, folks don’t do.”

    Step one in proving you are able to do one thing folks don’t usually do would, really, match into an episode of “The Rehearsal.” As soon as an aerial stunt’s been conceived of, along with planning the right way to execute it efficiently, the group additionally must generate a worst-case state of affairs end result. One of many considerations is one which Episode 3, “Pilot’s Code,” offers with straight: chicken strikes. “ There’s clearly all the time a component of hazard. One thing might occur. An engine might fail. A chicken strike. You recognize, there’s all types of issues that we attempt to remove as a lot as attainable,” Eastwood mentioned.

    In case you’re Tom Cruise and also you’re strapped into the wing of a biplane simply sufficient you could nonetheless be scrambling across the fuselage, then air particles and prop blasts are a priority, too. However even with Fielder safely contained in the cockpit of a 737, partnered with a co-pilot with over 5,000 flight hours, the purpose is similar: “ We do as a lot as we are able to to make the crimson field flip inexperienced, in the event you like, on the protection,” Eastwood mentioned. 

    It’s a backwards and forwards between the protection group doing that danger evaluation and the choice makers who insure the manufacturing and its property, together with expertise, that determines the colour of the proverbial field. 

    For the “M:I” movies, this includes a good quantity of testing and each video and written documentation to show a stunt is doable to the satisfaction of the manufacturing group earlier than Cruise even begins rehearsing it on the bottom. However even “The Rehearsal,” which aspired to run a business airline flight beneath as atypical and unremarkable a set of circumstances as attainable, has to reply the same set of questions: Have they got the fitting gear, and are there sufficient redundancies and educated personnel to slender the danger all the way down to an appropriate, insurable degree?

    For “The Rehearsal,” we see a few of that prep work within the present’s most gorgeous flashback thus far — the 2 years that Fielder spent coaching to grow to be a licensed business pilot type-rated to fly a 737, and the present’s seek for a rentable 737 secure sufficient to fly. Fielder was nonetheless most likely effectively in need of the flight hours wanted to attain his airline transport pilot’s license on the time of capturing “The Rehearsal” finale, which is the certification that the overwhelming majority of pilots flying passenger planes have.

    Besides, Fielder devoted himself to studying sufficient materials to fill a university diploma in a condensed period of time, along with his work as a comic. Though it comes out a bit of bit heartbreaking as the ultimate voiceover of the sequence, from an insurance coverage perspective if Fielder’s allowed to be within the cockpit, then he should be wonderful. 

    The principle reply, subsequently, in how “The Rehearsal” received away with packing an actual airplane stuffed with actual folks (even when they’re actors) and flying it within the precise sky is that Fielder did the work to be certified to fly it, that the manufacturing discovered a airplane airworthy sufficient (fortunately, with out chicken nests), and that the group round Fielder, from his co-pilot to the present’s aviation consultants (two are credited within the episode, Steve Giordano and Robert Allen) to the crew within the chase airplane, had been skilled sufficient for HBO’s military of attorneys to agree they’d certainly mitigated as a lot danger as attainable. 

    “ I simply should make it possible for the group round [Cruise] is as sturdy and as secure and as collectively as attainable in order that he can create and do what he needs to do,” Eastwood mentioned. Solely time and a possible Season 3 of “The Rehearsal” will inform what different stunts, aerial or in any other case, Fielder will create subsequent. 

    “The Rehearsal” is streaming on HBO Max.
