Christopher McQuarrie On Track To Write And Direct Sixth MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE Film

It was back in the summer that actor Tom Cruise went public with the news of an upcoming sixth installation of the Mission: Impossible franchise now in development. That update came in the good graces of this summer’s box office hit, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, which accumulated nearly $700 million dollars following its July 31 release, and not for nothing either. Paramount Pictures and Skydance are clearly thriving off of the franchise and doing so in a way that allows it to grow further beyond its films, with a storyline that continues to evolve and achieve tenfold in the years since its origins as a television series. Cruise is at the center of it all as a secret superspy dodging close calls at every corner with the help of a loyal few while battling some of the world’s worst of the worst, and even when a few wildcards tend […]

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION To Release On BluRay, DVD And Combo Pack This November And December

Lee B. Golden III

Director Christopher McQuarrie’s Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation was a fantastic summer entry into my movie-going experience. It continued an epic saga led by one of the strongest actors today and it opened the door for a new action heroine with actress Rebecca Ferguson leaving quite the mark she did. Thankfully, fans who didn’t get a chance to catch it on the big screen now have two dates to catch it with a compilation Blu-Ray release of all five films in November, and a multiplatform home release the following month. The details have been laid out nicely in a recent press release, and personally, I’d go with the five-film combo on Blu-ray for anyone new to this amazing franchise as there is a sixth movie already in the works, so what better way to catch up? HOLLYWOOD, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Hailed as “relentlessly thrilling” (Chris Nashawaty, Entertainment Weekly) and filled with “jaw-dropping […]

Cruise: "We're Working On MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 6 Right Now"

Lee B. Golden III

Hear this – we’re barely days away from the forthcoming release of director Christopher McQuarrie‘s Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation with promotion still underway and a handful of exclusive screenings taking place for lucky fans. The film was long hyped through its trailer campaign as the “last mission”, which of course is no guarantee that this will be the final film, but it’s still bares mentioning what with all the changes in the cast throughout the now five-part evolution of the franchise. Cruise leads the cast with Ving Rhames, Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg and Jeremy Renner as the crack superspy team resets its strategy in the wake of attacks by a rogue team of operatives equally skilled in measure. It’s otherwise proved to be an exciting addition to the franchise with daring stunts and blistering action to accomapny the global scope of the saga with clever characters and worldly evil […]

Tom Cruise Gets Scared S**tless In A New MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION Featurette

Lee B. Golden III

So, what’s a Tom Cruise action movie without Cruise performing real stunts? Answer: Well it wouldn’t be director Christopher McQuarrie‘s Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, and as such, they’ve confronted the issue head on with the award-winning star clearly in his element, and while the star is normally known for performing a lot of physical acting scenes himself, I would safely categorize his most death-defying scene in the upcoming film so far as a solid stunt that stunt professionals would be proud of. Of course, the fear factor does settle in as Cruise illustrates in the following featurette. As for the film, it arrives on July 31. Watch the featurette below and catch a string of TV spots just beneath!

The New Payoff Trailer For MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION Is Here

Lee B. Golden III

The current trailer campaign for the upcoming July 31 release of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation doesn’t really try to out-do itself between trailers. That may be up to the pending TV spots as spoilery as they tend to get, but all the trailers haven’t exactly dimmed on excitement with Tom Cruise in high speed motorcycle chases, long vertical dives into deep water, fighting off rogue agents bent on the IMF’s annihilation, and of course the whole hanging-off-of-a-plane thing. None of this is worth overlooking and it’s a credit to director Christopher McQuarrie and writer Drew Pearce in making this one what may be our hero’s last mission…or is it? SYNOPSIS: With the IMF now disbanded and Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) out in the cold, a new threat — called the Syndicate — soon emerges. The Syndicate is a network of highly skilled operatives who are dedicated to establishing a […]
