Tom Cruise is back and reckoning with the dead in new Mission: Impossible trailer
Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning Part One won't be in theaters until next year, though
Film News Mission: Impossible
Well damn, not only can we now regularly count on the Mission: Impossible franchise to produce some unfairly high-quality action movies/showcases for Tom Cruise’s desperate desire to die on film, but it looks like we can also count on these movies to give us some extremely rad trailers. 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.
To be honest it all seems like the sort of stuff that happens in every one of these movies, but that stuff is always very cool. 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!
Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning Part One was directed by Christopher McQuarrie, the Tom Cruise-whisperer, and it stars Cruise, Ferguson, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Hayley Atwell, Vanessa Kirby (we didn’t necessarily expect to see her again!), and—speaking of not expecting to see people again—Henry Czerny, who is once again playing original IMF director Eugene Kittridge and really gets a chance to piss off Ethan Hunt in this trailer.

Looks fuckin dope and I can’t wait.
once again, they build in that one shot at the very end to guarantee I’ll give my damn $20 to that crazed Scientologist to watch him come *thisclose* to killing himself (or at least give you the impression that’s what he will do). Glad to see they don’t mind bringing back interesting characters like Henry Czerny and Vanessa Kirby (and does Steve Rogers know his main squeeze is cheating on him???).
Czerny’s just as much of an asshole as he was in the ‘90s! Welcome back!One thing I’d note is the heavy imbalance in attractiveness by gender. All the hotness is on the women’s side. Even if Cavill was in this one, he couldn’t have carried the beautyweight singlehandedly.
You are vastly underestimating how many people find Tom Cruise, Simon Pegg, and Ving Rhames sexy.
Fair. I’m being conventional, and Kirby, Atwell, and Ferguson are all pretty conventionally attractive.
Wow, between Atwell and Kirby, it’s the battle of my two biggest English crushes! Whoever wins, I win!
Dear god, people find Simon Pegg sexy? Like, modern-day Simon Pegg? Yeesh.
He’s funny. Women find a lot of otherwise non-attractive men sexy if they’re funny.
He *was* funny….
you are right, but ultimately these are dude movies, every guy watching it imagines themselves as Ethan Hunt, and when that’s the case you’re only gonna be interested in hot women LOL. (Cavill really was the aberration wasn’t he? Even Jeremy Renner, past his prime Alec Baldwin, the bad guy from the last 2 movies, etc.—none of them easy on the eyes.)
“Even if Cavill was in this one, he couldn’t have carried the beautyweight singlehandedly”Especially not with that ‘stache.
*shudder* Not even you, Henry. Not even you.
FYI: Cavill and Cavill’s *incredible* butt are considered as two, distinct actors, each more talented than the other.

I wish people would stop acting as if actors from marvel movies are their character in every movie they do. I know its a joke. For me, it’s a played out one. Ooh look, Falcon is fighting Starlord in this movie! Clever!
well it’s not played out for me yet LOL
I think those jokes are fresh and original. NOT!!!
This trailer doesn’t even have a premiere date, just “next year.” It literally says “July 2023″ at the end. Sure, not a specific date, but less vague than “next year.”
Just hook it to my veins.
It looks like they grafted Tom Cruise’s face onto John Mulaney’s head.
God damn. Five tickets, please.
I’m very curious about all the call backs to the first movie. Wondering how much is intentional or just because they are shooting a spy movie.
Kittridge. Max’s daughter. Train roof fight w/ knife. Slght of Hand Magic Trick. Sword fight location feels like back where the original IMF team died. I think I’m stretching on the last one.
I’m sold. This trailer slaps. Fallout had the best action/suspense climax I’ve seen in a long time, and if they manage to top that – or even just equal it – I’ll be leaving the cinema a very happy man.
Just rewatched Fallout the other day, and goddamn, that movie moves like a freight train. It’s two and a half hours long, but feels like 90 minutes.
The movie will be awesome, but this trailer left me kind of dry. For the first 30 seconds it could have been pretty interchangeable with any 007 trailer. And then they throw in the slow motion rave orgy.
Women dancing on poles = orgy?
I’m just assuming it’s some rich oligarch who hosts rave orgies – they seem to populate movies like this. I mean, no rich oligarch is just going to host regular non-orgy raves. This isn’t a Matrix movie.
The Bond franchise wishes it could move like a Mission Impossible movie.I say this as a deep, deep Bond fan
Comparison limited to trailers only. Bond movies wish they were as awesome as their trailers
I feel the same. I love Bond, but MI – especially the run from Ghost Protocol through to Fallout – has been untouchable. I think when Bond comes back, it need to differentiate itself again – a little more swagger and cool, a little less introspection.
Can’t see this beating Fallout. That movie was a machine. It being just a ‘Part 1′ will surely take an edge off. But I’m sure it will be entertaining.
The opening sequence that leads into the theme in Fallout is still my biggest “OH. OH FUCK YES.” moment of the franchise, and I was hooked from there. (I like Rogue Nation a tiny bit better as an overall film, but just barely.)
The final 20 minutes of Fallout are a master class in sustained tension. The MI movies have me thinking that Christopher McQuarrie is one of the most interesting directors working in Hollywood today.
What they’ve done with these movies from a visuals standpoint is just incredible. I’m not going to watch the trailer so as to avoid spoiling whatever they have to offer next. I just wish it was coming out sooner!
I am wherever Hayley Atwell is.
My first response after watching this was ‘The new Hayley Atwell movie looks great.’She can do this all day.
Hail Xenu, I’m sold!!
This crazy mother fucker, just take my money you nut! I wish I could quit you but since the outsiders I can’t! Fuck me!
um, stay golden…I guess…
If the NY Rangers didn’t have a game 5 playoff game this thursday night, I would run out after work to see Top Gun 2! That fucker Tommy boy has his hooks in me! 😉
My wife is away this weekend so I have to wait for her for TG2. I’m not as psyched as you, but I’m psyched.
I really can’t believe the reviews are as good as they are. Before I saw the trailer I said to myself “I have to see it as a kid of the 80’s” Was looking forward to it but after the trailers and reviews, I want to go see it with my original Record of the sound track around my neck hanging from a chain!
Oh, to be young and feel love’s keen sting.
😉 I wish I was young. At 48 years old swooning over a strange little man who pushes his strange beliefs on people is something I never would believe would happen to me! But here we are!
Now mosey on over to the Leticia Wright article where everyone is saying literally the opposite about her. Such an outrageous double standard considering here it’s a white male actor and there it’s a black female actor. Yeesh society sucks.
As a old POC who friends mom’s (3 of them) died of covid at the start, she can fuck off. And that’s all I have to say about her.Cruse doesn’t get a pass by me on his social issuses, I admit I somehow like this crazy fuck in movies because of the child of the 80’s in me and that’s probably wrong because he has done damage to people in the past.But if we are gonna pick on his religion (and rightfully so) lets call out everyone in every form of life and their awful religion which doesn’t think people can have abortions or women should be allowed to drive cars or that gays should get married. All really hardcore religious people in one way or another are dicks.
Tom Cruise is a goddamn superstar. He could go home and cook puppies for dinner and punch infants for dessert and still be golden. He’s that good.
I have seen so many of these movies on cable or airplanes, rolling my eyes and saying, “ugh, this fucking guy” and been completely blown away by the movie.
As big as Tom Cruise is (so to speak), imagine how big of a star he’d be if he didn’t have to contend with his own bad PR.
Like if he had Keanu Reeves chill nice guy personality.
He’s already about as big as you can be as a Hollywood actor. He’s been in a big-budget movie as a lead almost every year from 1998-2018 and the only reason he had as long as a break as he’s had since is because of COVID.
There are going to be more Mission Impossible movies than there were episodes of the show…….
Original or reboot?
There won’t be more movies than either but it was a attempt at a joke I guess.
Back in 1965, composer Lalo Schifrin was probably thinking, “This is a pretty good score, not bad for a TV show.” Now, nearly 60 years later, you could argue that the opening bars are as iconic as anything John Williams came up with. Of course, I would recognize a number of different John Williams compositions, and this is the only Lalo Schifrin score I know, but the dude hit it out of the park with this one.
His Bullit score is a blast!
Tom Cruise on a motorcycle? I already saw that one.
I’m loving that the Mission Impossible Force is half British. Forget finding a new Bond, let’s just give Ferguson, Atwell and Kirby their own spinoffs.
“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.”
I thought July 2023 was pretty specific. Were I a betting person I would venture to guess sometime around the 4th.Also, after the 6th or 7th time your bosses say you don’t work for your company and try to kill you, it’s really time to move on and find another Arby’s to work at.
Man. I hope he makes the right choice.
Sweet, a major addition to the Tom Cruise Running supercut!
Still can’t stand Simon Pegg’s character and really, really wish they’d kill him off or just write him off.And, WTF, why did they never bring back Paula Patton??
He drives around in a car with no doors!No doors!
Read what I wrote on the Leticia Wright article and then read these comments here about people happily giving their money to the Scientologist actor.
I hope that they use this opportunity to bring back (and redeem) Jim Phelps.
Though maybe not Jon Voight.
You had me at new MI movie trailer! AND Hayley Atwell is in it?? Oh man…
Why are people here and Reddit and social media so damn thirsty for this movie? The 9th MI sequel, really?
The punctuation and lack thereof in this title really throw me off. First an em dash between Impossible and Dead, then nothing between Reckoning and Part One. After using the proper colon in M:I. Just do more colons. Everywhere.
capture the bad guys without a super-explosion again! I’m thinking of the climax to the one sequel that was in a bunch of underground tunnels.. sidebar: what happened to Thandie Newton?
The trailer makes me worry a bit for Rebecca Ferguson’s character. She’s never shown in scenes with Hayley Atwell, her character has an eyepatch at one point, and there’s a scene of Cruise holding a cross on her necklace that makes it seem like she’s about to die. Hopefully not the case as she’s been a great addition to the franchise.The last part of the trailer has me pretty excited overall – shame that this movie isn’t out until next year though. Wonder why the trailer was released so early.
All those desert shots make it look like Ishtar 2But on the flip side…Haley Atwell, she is just pure perfection.
