Mission Impossible Turned Henry Cavill Into a Better Villain Than Hero

Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible franchise isn't slowing down any time soon, with Mission: Impossible 8 slated for a summer 2025 release date following the huge success of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One with Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, and Rebecca Ferguson. Not every installment in the franchise has been a home run, though Mission: Impossible – Fallout is a notable standout worthy of much praise. For one thing, it proved that a movie franchise that’s already delivered five previous installments can be made to feel brand new like it just came off the assembly line. Moments like Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) hesitating just before jumping out a window also underscored how a delicate presence of comedy (which lent levity to the proceedings without turning everything into a spoof of itself) has always been a secret weapon for the Mission: Impossible movies. Oh, and there’s also the barrage of incredibly well-filmed stunts, each more impressive than the last.
