At one point it seemed like audiences were happy to see anything with Tom Cruise in it, but in recent years the only surefire hits he’s had are with the Mission: Impossible franchise. A couple of films ago, he was supposedly leaving the series behind, but then decided to stick around when several of his others films bombed, but people still couldn’t get enough of him as Ethan Hunt.
Now they’re busy putting together the sixth Mission: Impossible, which has just added Vanessa Kirby, best known for playing Princess Margaret in The Crown, to the cast. It’s not known exactly who she will play, but Variety suggests it’s a big role, in the same scale as Rebecca Ferguson’s part in Rogue Nation.
Christopher McQuarrie, who wrote and directed Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, is returning to do the same duties on the latest film. It’s due to start shooting next month, for release July 2018.
