It's time to pass the torch. Originally they tried to get this going with Renner in Ghost Protocol but it didn't take.
Have her be the new lead of the franchise while Ethan Hunt becomes the reoccurring Secretary.
Probably a lot but he never get serious injuries (not counting the last movie), so I guess the insurance company makes money with every M:I movie?.
Why have them come out back to back years then? RN and FO already was essentially a two parter kind of, so ending Cruise's run on one epic two parter makes complete sense.I'm kinda skeptical the first one's gonna end on some big cliffhanger or something. I think they're just filming back to back because this is one of the few big blockbuster franchises Paramount has and they wanna squeeze in two more before Cruise gets too old to do the stunts.
This was one of the few Mission Impossible 7 threads I found, I guess the dates in title need to be updated because of covid delays.
Anyway, the movie is shooting in Norway right now with Tom Cruise preparing for a crazy stunt:
He's going to drive off a cliff on a motorcycle and parachute down
