Cast

Additionally Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, and Shea Whigham have been cast in undisclosed roles. McQuarrie described Atwell's character as "Destructive force of nature" while Atwell explained that her character's loyalties are "somewhat ambiguous", and, said; "I've been living in an existential crisis since October, going 'who am I? who am I?' An actor in search of a character... There's ambiguity…the interesting thing we're exploring is her resistance to a situation she finds herself in. How she starts off, where she becomes. The journey of what she comes into and what is asked of her and potentially where she ends up"[1]

Production

It was announced by Cruise on January 14, 2019 that the seventh and eighth Mission: Impossible films will be shot back-to-back with McQuarrie writing and directing both films for July 23, 2021 and August 5, 2022 release.[2][3] In February 2019, Ferguson confirmed her return for the seventh installment.[4][5] In September 2019, McQuarrie announced on his Instagram account that Hayley Atwell has joined the cast for the seventh film.[6] In September 2019, Pom Klementieff joined the cast for both the seventh and eighth film.[7] In December 2019, Simon Pegg confirmed his return for the film, with Shea Whigham cast for both films.[8][9] Nicholas Hoult was cast in a role in January 2020, along with the addition of Henry Czerny, reprising his role as Eugene Kittridge for the first time since the 1996 film.[10][11] Vanessa Kirby also announced she was returning for both films.[12] In May 2020, it was reported that Esai Morales would be replacing Hoult's role in both films due to scheduling conflicts.[13]

Filming began on February 20, 2020, in Venice, set up to last for three weeks before moving to Rome in mid-March for 40 days,[14][15] but due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy, production in the country was suspended.[16] Three weeks later, filming resumed in Surrey, England.[17]

Release

Mission: Impossible 7 is scheduled to be released on November 19, 2021.[18] It was originally set for release on July 23, 2021,[19] but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
