Paramount Pictures has revealed another featurette for Christopher McQuarrie’s highly anticipated “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One” opening in cinemas next month.
The 2.5-minute clip focuses entirely on the Rome car chase seen in the trailers as Tom Cruise’s Ethan, handcuffed to Hayley Atwell, can be seen driving and drifting one-handed through the cobblestone streets of Rome.
The clip comes as Deadline reports that next year’s “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part Two” has been revealed to have been largely unaffected by the writer’s strike with shooting currently on break and resuming film later this Summer.
The $290 million budgeted seventh overall film in the “Mission: Impossible” franchise, regulars Tom Cruise, Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames return in the new adventure, which saw the production filming in Rome, Venice, Norway and the United Kingdom.
Joining them are first ‘Mission’ returnee Henry Czerny as Eugene Kittridge, Vanessa Kirby back as the White Widow from the sixth film. “Agent Carter” star Hayley Atwell leads the new faces which also includes Esai Morales as the villain, Pom Klementieff as his aide, and the likes of Cary Elwes, Shea Whigham, Indira Varma, Mark Gatiss, Rob Delaney, Greg Tarzan Davis, Charles Parnell, Indira Varma and Mark Gatiss in supporting roles.
“Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One” opens in cinemas around the world from July 12th-14th, including China, and will be followed by a second part in June 2024.
