We’re days away from seeing MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – DEAD RECKONING Part One in theaters, but with the wildly popular release of TOP GUN: MAVERICK last year, Paramount Pictures probably doesn’t want to slow down on the Tom Cruise hype, understandably. And as you can likely guess, DEAD RECKONING Part One means this is actually the first of two parts, with the first hitting theaters in the summer of 2023, and the second half hitting in 2024. Cruise is back in the role of IMF agent Ethan Hunt, with this installment once again written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie, and co-starring Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Ving Rhames, Henry Czerny, Vanessa Kirby, Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, Cary Elwes, Indira Varma, Shea Whigham, Esai Morales, Rob Delaney, Frederick Schmidt, Charles Parnell, and Mark Gatiss. I’m most excited about Henry Czerny returning as IMF director Eugene Kittridge, a role he played so well in the first film. Take a look at the new final trailer below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
In Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his IMF team embark on their most dangerous mission yet: To track down a terrifying new weapon that threatens all of humanity before it falls into the wrong hands. With control of the future and the fate of the world at stake, and dark forces from Ethan’s past closing in, a deadly race around the globe begins. Confronted by a mysterious, all-powerful enemy, Ethan is forced to consider that nothing can matter more than his mission – not even the lives of those he cares about most.
