One of the most highly-anticipated movies of 2023 is Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One.
The first of the two-part finale to the Mission: Impossible franchise will be released in July of 2023 and will again star Tom Cruise as hero Ethan Hunt.
The official premise reads:
'Ethan Hunt and his IMF team embark on their most dangerous mission to track down a terrifying weapon that threatens 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 and powerful nemesis named Gabriel, Ethan is forced to consider that nothing can matter more than his mission – not even the lives of those he cares about most.'
Numerous vignettes, as well as the trailer, have shown Cruise performing a death-defying stunt, riding a motorcycle off a cliff before jumping off and parachuting to the ground. That set-piece will continue Mission: Impossible's tradition of Cruise outdoing himself with crazier and crazier stunts.
And, unbelievably, it was the first thing the iconic actor filmed for Dead Reckoning Part One.
“Doing that on Day One gave us all the time in the world to understand why he was doing what he was doing,” director Christopher McQuarrie told Empire.
“If we sat around and tried to figure out these movies the old-fashioned way, you’d never find it, simply because it’s such a living, breathing thing."
“It’s never the easy road,” Cruise adds. “I have a responsibility to audiences, the studio, my crew, my cast and industry. We can’t compromise just because all of these things happened. I can’t compromise the storytelling.”
Joining Cruise in the cast is Rebecca Ferguson, Ving Rhames, Vanessa Kirby, Hayley Atwell, Esai Morales, Henry Czerny and Pom Klementieff.
