Mission: Impossible

The teaser trailer is out for the upcoming seventh 'Mission: Impossible' movie subtitled 'Dead Reckoning Part One' and starring Tom Cruise.

The movie, should you choose to go see it, comes out July 14, 2023. Your mission — should you choose to accept it: Reveal the whereabouts of Shelly Miscavige.

The trailer for 'Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning' has been released, which sees Tom Cruise perform several stunts throughout.

“Dead Reckoning” is written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who previously helmed “Rogue Nation” in 2015 and “Fallout” in 2018. The trailer closes with a shot of Cruise, famous for doing his own stunts in the franchise, driving a motorcycle off a cliff and skydiving into the air below. “Your days of fighting for the so-called ‘Greater Good’ are over,” Czerny says to Cruise in the trailer.

In case you missed out on the leak on Sunday night — yes, trailer leaks still happen somehow in this day and age, and it's even funnier when it happens to a ...

There’s a first time for everything, right?” Oh, wait a second. But how the fuck can a CGI-disguised Atlanta soundstage compete with this now?

"Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part I" redefines the action genre as Tom Cruise returns as death-defying spy Ethan Hunt.

“If I do, that’s not going to end well.” Tom Cruise reprises his iconic spy action hero role for “ Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning – Part I,” the first installment of the conclusion to the 1996 film franchise. The budget reportedly ballooned upwards of $290 million during production, with additional funds allocated to finish post-production on the action epic.

Tom Cruise and the marketing of Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning tease all the old ghosts in the franchise are coming back.

The Oscar winning scribe became the first director to return to the stylishly diverse franchise more than once, helming Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation in 2015 and then Mission: Impossible – Fallout in 2018. Going back to the beginning of a saga, even one as episodic as Mission: Impossible, seems typical of a story with an eye on drawing its final curtain. Right down to its title, which ends in “Part One,” Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning promises to be the most continuity-heavy Mission: Impossible movie ever made. And yet, while watching how the dazzling sizzle reel footage is framed in Dead Reckoning, it is hard not to think this will be some kind of capstone on the entire Mission: Impossible franchise. The familiarity of the action set-piece is unlikely to be coincidental. If his distinct sneering cadence sounds familiar to you in the trailer—as he informs Ethan the ideal he’s fought for doesn’t exist and never did—that’s because Czerny’s Kittridge was previously the IMF Director in the 1996 movie directed by Brian De Palma. Due to the machinations of the film’s true villain, Jon Voight as Jim Phelps, Kittridge came to be convinced by a frame job that Ethan Hunt was a dirty agent.

"Your days of fighting for the so-called greater good are over."

There are car chases, gunfights, a boat ride in Venice, Ethan and the Big Bad fighting on top of a speeding train, and the release of a deadly gas—everything you want from a spy action flick. The scene was ultimately filmed on a set built in an abandoned quarry. So fans were thrilled when McQuarrie signed on to write and direct the seventh and final installments. The official trailer for Mission: Impossible–Dead Reckoning Part One (aka Mission: Impossible 7) is here and chock-full of the kind of global intrigue and jaw-dropping stunts fans have come to expect from this hugely successful franchise. The first film was set six years after the 1988-1990 TV series, itself a sequel to the original TV series that ran from 1966 to 1973. The trailer was shown in April exclusively at CinemaCon and the intent was to release it this coming weekend when the highly anticipated Top Gun: Maverick finally (finally!) hits theaters.

Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning Part One won't be in theaters until next year, though.

Really, if there’s a downside to this it’s that Dead Reckoning Part One still doesn’t come out until next year. This trailer doesn’t even have a premiere date, just “next year.” But then Dead Reckoning Part Two is set to come out in 2024, so there will be less of a wait for that one, and we’ll probably get a few more rad trailers before then! It’s hard to beat the surprisingly cool Imagine Dragons drop from Mission: Impossible—Fallout, but this first trailer for Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning Part One (good god, these titles) has it beat with a feast of cool-ass imagery: Cruise’s Ethan Hunt driving a yellow Fiat like Lupin III, Rebecca Ferguson’s Ilsa Faust with an eyepatch, tons of people doing that intense “you’re saying things I don’t like and I’m suppressing the urge to beat you up” head move, the dude in the gas mask and round sunglasses, a train and later a motorcycle going over various cliffs.

The first trailer for Mission: Impossible -- Dead Reckoning Part 1 dropped this week, and it features a vintage Fiat that calls back to a Japanese animation ...

In M:I the 500 is getting drifted and tossed around in an almost animated way akin to how Lupin drives his car, and the movies have similar settings, too. Mission: Impossible -- Dead Reckoning Part 1 won't be in theaters until July 14, 2023, with the sequel set to come out on June 28, 2024. Lupin's 500 is one of the most recognizable and beloved animated vehicles out there, and the one used in Dead Reckoning is nearly identical. His Fiat has made appearances in many other Lupin works, but it's best known for The Castle of Cagliostro where it stars in a phenomenal chase scene. In fact, The Castle of Cagliostro's action sequences were a direct inspiration for the action in Indiana Jones. Released in 1979, The Castle of Cagliostro is the second animated movie in the Lupin the Third franchise, which follows the antics of master thief Arsène Lupin III. The series started off as a manga that ran from 1967 to 1969, but it spawned multiple TV shows and nearly a dozen films that have come out in the ensuing decades.

Mission: Impossible 7 continues the franchise trend of unbelievable stunts, with the latest being a motorcycle cliff jump - here's how it was filmed.

I had about six seconds once I departed the ramp to pull the chute and I don’t want to get tangled in the bike. Whether this motorcycle jump will be the main stunt of the film, or if the duo has anything else hidden up their sleeves remains to be seen. The feat involved Cruise riding the motorcycle off a cliff, before transitioning into a free fall and base jumping with a parachute. Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning continues the franchise's trend of outlandish, unbelievable stunts with a motorcycle cliff jump involving Tom Cruise, but how did the cast and crew film the scene? However, with Cruise doing over 30 helicopter dives each day during pre-production in order to prepare for the base jump section of the fall, it's clear this wasn't the case and he remained as committed as ever. Therefore, with Mission: Impossible 7, fans of the franchise were left wondering how Cruise and director Christopher McQuarrie would top the already amazing stunts performed in the series thus far.

During the filming of "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One," Tom Cruise performed a stunt that brought him extremely close to the edge of danger.

In the Daily Mail's recap of an April 2021 episode of "The Graham Norton Show," Cruise spoke about breaking his ankle while performing a stunt for "Mission Impossible: Fallout" in 2018. Per an interview with Empire Online, Cruise, while in character as Ethan Hunt, was required to drive a motorcycle off of a cliff for a stunt included in "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One." Hunt and Cruise alike would be saved from a long hard fall by a parachute. During the filming of the upcoming "Mission Impossible" installment, "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One," Cruise was called upon to perform a stunt that brought him closer to the edge of danger than he'd been in years. Via Men's Journal, he also tore his labrum while filming the cliff climbing stunt for "Mission Impossible 2." Thankfully for all parties involved, Cruise clearly survived to tell the incredibly dangerous tale, which fans can see briefly at the tail end of the "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One" trailer. All of that stunt experience has definitely given Cruise a way with dangerous situations.
