He’s here to run (in that signature Cruise sprint), jump, hang from helicopters, and somehow, at 62 years young, look like he hasn’t aged a day past Mission: Impossible II. Strap in, action fans, because Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is coming in hot, and it’s about to set both the big screen and your adrenaline on fire.

Cruise returns as Ethan Hunt, the superspy who’s been saving the world since 1996 and somehow only seems to be getting faster. This eighth installment promises all the action, thrills, and edge-of-your-seat suspense the franchise is famous for — but with a little extra flair to send this epic saga off in style.

Joining Cruise are some familiar faces that fans know and love. Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Henry Czerny, and Angela Bassett are all back to reprise their roles, proving once again that no mission is too impossible when you’ve got the ultimate dream team. Whether it’s hacking into government databases, cracking safes, or trading witty banter mid-chase, this cast delivers.

The buzz kicked off in style with the world premiere of The Final Reckoning in Tokyo on May 5, 2025. Up next? A glamorous screening at Cannes on May 14 — before the film storms into U.S. theaters on May 23, courtesy of Paramount Pictures. It’s safe to say summer blockbuster season is arriving early, and Cruise is at the helm.
In this movie McQ and I saw an opportunity to create an underwater sequence unlike any other. We are excited to share it with you.

And just in case you needed one more reason to be excited, new stills have dropped of Tom Cruise — shirtless, drenched, and in peak physical condition. Yes, that’s right. 62 years old and serving leading man physique like it’s second nature. Fans have long known Cruise for his fearless dedication to doing his own stunts — from clinging to planes mid-air to leaping between skyscrapers — but clearly, the man has been putting in the work to make sure Ethan Hunt is as sharp as ever.
So get ready to witness one final, gravity-defying adventure. Whether you’re in it for the explosions, the espionage, or just to marvel at Cruise’s ageless energy — The Final Reckoning is shaping up to be an action-packed love letter to fans old and new.
Mission accepted? See you May 23.
