Paramount Pictures
recently announced the release dates for the next two installments in the
Mission: Impossible franchise, with
Mission: Impossible 7 out in theaters on July 23, 2021 and
Mission: Impossible 8 out on August 5, 2022. These two films, which will be filmed back-to-back, will see the return of franchise icon Tom Cruise, reprising his role as IMF Agent Ethan Hunt, and director Christopher McQuarrie, who helmed the last two
Mission: Impossible entries.
The pairing of this dynamic duo certifies the next two entries in the franchise will be just as high quality as last year's critically acclaimed
Mission: Impossible - Fallout, and now we have news of another returning star.
In an
interview with ITV's Lorraine,
Rebecca Ferguson confirmed that she will be reprising her role as Ilsa Faust for the franchise's seventh installment. Ferguson responded with an enthusiastic "y
ou will" when asked if audiences will see her in the next MI movie. You can see the interview below.
Ferguson is the first supporting actor to confirm a return for the upcoming
Mission films, though we can probably expect to see her joined by Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames. News of Ferguson's return is likely a surprise to no one, as she has become a staple of the franchise following her breakout performance in
Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation.
