"Mission: Impossible 7" Title Revealed

Paramount Pictures unveiled Thursday the official title for "Mission: Impossible 7".

The seventh installment in the Mission: Impossible franchise is called "Mission Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One", with Mission: Impossible 8 presumably being the second part of that story.

The highly-anticipated sequel, co-produced by Skydance, was initially slated to open on July 23, 2021. It has been postponed multiple times as the public health situation has changed due to coronavirus.

The next two installments in the franchise see the return of Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt, the IMF agent with nine lives.

It will also star Rebecca Ferguson, Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Henry Czerny, Simon Pegg, Vanessa Kirby, and Angela Bassett.

The seventh installment is directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who previously helmed “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation” and “Fallout”. He is also set to helm the eighth movie.

"Mission Impossible: 8" comes on June 28, 2024.

Cruise will next appear in the highly-anticipated movie “Top Gun: Maverick”, which opens in theaters on May 27.

It was originally scheduled to be released by Paramount Pictures on July 12, 2019, before it was pushed into 2020 and beyond.
