News Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning No, Really, It’s the Final Final Reckoning in the New Mission: Impossible Trailer Ethan Hunt is ON IT. Again. By Molly Templeton | Published on April 7, 2025 Screenshot: Paramount Pictures Comment 0 Share New Share Screenshot: Paramount Pictures There’s an art to trailers, and there’s a particular art to trailers that have to both remind you how much has happened in a long-(long!)-running series and get you hyped for the next, presumably last, installment. This one does it with a good wink and a nudge: Remember all those impossible stunts Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) has already pulled? Remember those famous scenes? Remember how it’s all chaotic and deadly until it’s not? Yes, that. But more. Mission: Impossible—The Final Reckoning is, in theory, the last Tom Cruise mission, and this trailer really, really wants you to believe that. He just needs you to trust him one last time. One last time with an aircraft carrier, and a submarine, and a shiny yellow airplane, and a whole bunch of fight scenes so rapidly cut that my computer started to glitch out during them. This is the sequel to Mission: Impossible—Dead Reckoning, which presumably is no longer officially called Part One as this is not part two, but the final part. It will bring to a close the world’s fight against the AI enemy The Entity. Ethan Hunt has a fancy key that he can use to defeat it, but—naturally—he needs to get to a submarine at the bottom of the ocean. For reasons. I recommend you not worry too much about the plot. Dead Reckoning had nothing on Fallout, the previous and most superior Mission, but since this is the end (mmm hmm) we ought to expect longtime series director Christopher McQuarrie and star/stunt maven Cruise to pull out all the stops. The movie also stars Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Vanessa Kirby, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, Henry Czerny, Angela Bassett, Rolf Saxon—and hey! That was clever of them, putting a quick hello from Severance’s Tramell Tillman in here too. Ditto Ted Lasso‘s Hannah Waddingham. The gang’s all here. The day gets saved in theaters on May 23rd.[end-mark] The post No, Really, It’s the <i>Final</i> Final Reckoning in the New <i>Mission: Impossible</i> Trailer appeared first on Reactor.
