Tom Cruise and team star in new ‘Mission Impossible Rogue Nation’ poster
Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt is back this summer, reuniting with Jack Reacher director Christopher McQuarrie for Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation. Fans get a great look at the cast in a new poster, check it out below.
Cruise himself debuted the poster via Twitter:
Who’s ready for #MissionImpossible Rogue Nation? I can’t wait for you guys to see this film. —
This will be the fifth film in the franchise and Cruise is again joined by Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner and Ving Rhames, all reprising their respective roles from previous MI flicks.
Rebecca Ferguson and Alec Baldwin join the cast with Prometheus star Sean Harris set to play the film’s baddie.
Details emerged after the most recent trailer as the film pits the group against something called ‘The Syndicate’, a rogue nation organization that is trained and equipped much like the IMF, but intends to destroy them. And then there’s our own government, with Baldwin’s character looking to shut down Cruise’s Ethan Hunt and his team for good.
Cruise raises the bar for the Mission Impossible franchise with an under water scene which required incredible training for the famous actor.
Cruise talked to USA Today about the scene and he said that “It’s something I have always wanted to do. (Director Christopher McQuarrie) and I have been thinking about it since working on ‘Edge of Tomorrow.’ I have done a lot of underwater sequences. But we wanted to create a suspense underwater sequence without cuts. So doing that sequence was really interesting. We’re underwater and we’re doing breath-holds of 6 to 6 1/2 minutes. So I was doing all my training with the other stuff (on-set). It was very taxing stuff.”
