The ongoing feud between SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP has claimed another blockbuster victim. Paramount has announced that the next Mission: Impossible sequel all the way to May 23rd 2025, almost a full year from its original release date next June.
With such a lengthy gap, the decision has also been made to retitle the film, so it will no longer be Mission: Impossible-Dead Reckoning Part II. That also means there will have been a Dead Reckoning Part I and that’s it, which is kinda weird. I assume that will be retitled officially, too.
Anyway, Variety says the sequel will still follow events from Part I, which finds Ethan Hunt and the IMF team battling a rogue AI with global conquest in mind. So far, the consequences of this mission have been pretty steep, but the team gained a new member in Hayley Atwell’s thief, Grace.
