"MI" without Tom is like "August without summer vacation"!
Suspended in the air, spider-walking skyscrapers, holding your breath for about 6 minutes, getting caught in an airplane ... Tom Cruise's challenge is expected to continue forever.
But I think it's impossible for Tom to keep doing it ...? Then, Variety reported the news that "Tom Cruise seems to graduate with MI7 and MI8". The story of graduation emerged when the "Ghost Protocol" was produced, but it has become a realistic story. "MI" without Tom is lonely just to imagine!
The culmination of the sword
"Mission: Impossible 7 (tentative title)" and "Mission: Impossible 8 (tentative title)" were announced to be postponed the other day, but it is not only the influence of the new coronavirus epidemic but also Tom that it takes time to produce. There was talk of pursuing quality for the big event of graduation.
Ah, Tom's graduation = the end of the "MI" series, and the possibility that the series will continue without Ethan Hunt cannot be ruled out, so let's not misunderstand that.
By the way, "Mission: Impossible 7 (tentative title)" is scheduled to be released on July 14, 2023, and "Mission: Impossible 8 (tentative title)" is scheduled to be released on June 28, 2024, but a part of "8". He wants to finish the shooting of "7" by the time it is released. Because, it seems that you want to make the last part of "7" dangling and connect it to "8" as it is.
Tom Cruise is known as an uncompromising perfectionist, so it's easy to imagine that if this were Tom's graduation, he would be challenging with extraordinary enthusiasm. It is also famous that the awareness of corona countermeasures in the field is extremely high, and it will be more difficult to resume production while the Omicron and Delta strains are widespread.
As much as the swelling budget ...
By the way, the budget is reported, but the production cost of "7" is close to 300 million dollars (about 34.5 billion yen). Material costs are soaring, and labor costs should be high. Both Paramount and co-producer Skydance will be nervous about spending far more than expected.
But if Tom Cruise graduates, I wonder if it will be enough to pay for it. I also watched "Fallout" three times in theaters.
