Leading up to the release of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, there has been a lot of speculation that it will be the final entry in the long-running spy franchise. The Final Reckoning will be the eighth Mission: Impossible movie and will pick up after Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning’s cliffhanger ending. The story of the upcoming Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning will follow Ethan Hunt and his team as they continue to fight against villains like Gabriel and the artificial intelligence program known as The Entity.
The cast of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning includes Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Simon Pegg, and Ving Rhames. The upcoming Mission: Impossible movie was shot back-to-back with Dead Reckoning, so director Christopher McQuarrie will also be helming The Final Reckoning. It has long been suggested that Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning will be the last movie in the series, but neither Cruise nor McQuarrie have confirmed this. Therefore, it’s possible that more Mission: Impossible movies will be made after The Final Reckoning.
