Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning: Movie Overview
Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is an upcoming American action spy film directed by Christopher McQuarrie from a screenplay he co-wrote with Erik Jendresen. It is a direct sequel to Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) and the eighth installment in the Mission: Impossible film series. Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Vanessa Kirby, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, Angela Bassett, and Henry Czerny all reprise their roles from the previous films.
In January 2019, Cruise announced that the seventh and eighth Mission: Impossible films would be shot back-to-back with McQuarrie writing and directing both films. Plans for the film later changed in February 2021. Returning and new cast members were announced soon after, and Lorne Balfe, who composed the scores for two previous films in the series, returned to score the film. Filming began in March 2022 in the United Kingdom, with other filming locations including Malta, South Africa and Norway. Production was halted in July 2023 due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, and resumed in March 2024 before wrapping in November 2024. The film, originally titled Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two, dropped its subtitle in October 2023. In November 2024, the film’s subtitle was confirmed as The Final Reckoning.
The Final Reckoning is scheduled to be released in the United States on May 23, 2025, by Paramount Pictures.
Lorne Balfe was announced to be composing the score for the seventh and eighth Mission: Impossible films in May 2020, after previously doing so for Mission: Impossible – Fallout (2018).
