The official trailer for Tom Cruise’s next Mission: Impossible movie – titled Dead Reckoning, Part One – was released early on Wednesday morning.
The heart-stopping, high-speed clip from director Christopher McQuarrie showed plenty of action scenes with the Hollywood actor, whose film Top Gun: Maverick was a massive summer 2022 hit.
Cruise performs some of the most daring stunts of his long and varied career. There is an on-the-edge-of-your-seat chase scene on top of a moving train and he also rides his motorcycle off a cliff.
This is Tom’s seventh MI film, and there is a talk of an eighth one on the way as well.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One will be released in theaters on July 14, 2023.

Cruise stars as special agent Ethan Hunt who works for the Impossible Missions Force (IMF).
Also returning to the sequel are his usual sidekicks – veteran Hollywood names Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, and Vanessa Kirby.
Henry Czerny, who appeared in the original 1996 Mission Impossible as IMF director Eugene Kittridge, is also back for more thrills with the A list star.
The newcomers are Hayley Atwell as Grace and Eighties Latin heartthrob Esai Morales as the movie’s main villain.
Dead Reckoning is the seventh entry in the spy thriller series.
The film is expected to become a box-office dynamo this summer in the same way that Top Gun 2 was last summer.

And then there is the evil that lurks.
‘Your days of fighting for the so-called greater good are over,’ says Czerny, who played the IMF director Eugene Kittridge in a previous MI film.
‘This is our chance to control the truth. The concepts of right and wrong for everyone for centuries to come. You’re fighting to save an ideal that doesn’t exist, never did. You need to pick a side.’
Cruise’s Ethan does not look too happy with the speech.

The very first look at MI:7 came during Paramount’s CinemaCon in Las Vegas in late April.
The action star was seen at the event in a pre-recorded message filmed on a red airplane from the South Africa set of Mission: Impossible 8.
Then a trailer for the sequel was shared, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
In the message, Cruise – the ex-husband of Nicole Kidman and Katie Holmes – was on top of a red biplane.
‘Hey everyone,’ Cruise said, his voice hard to hear over to the rushing wind. ‘Wish I could be there with you. I’m sorry for the extra noise. As you can see, we are filming the latest installment of Mission: Impossible.’
