Helmed by Christopher McQuarrie, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning serves as the gripping conclusion to the franchise that began almost thirty years ago. The story picks up after Dead Reckoning , with Ethan Hunt confronting a rogue AI called The Entity. On stage, Cruise showered praise on McQuarrie, reminiscing about how he had secretly enlisted him to fine-tune Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol without the team’s knowledge.
“He’s the hero of that film and put Skydance on the map,” Tom Cruise remarked. He continued, “Because of Christopher McQuarrie, we delivered Top Gun: Maverick and two Mission: Impossible films during pandemic shutdowns and strikes. You’re a modern-day Thalberg and an asset to every studio you serve.
” Cruise then honoured McQuarrie with CinemaCon’s Director of the Year Award. Reflecting on his journey, McQuarrie credited Cruise for believing in him when no one else would. “Tom, I’m here because of your vision and trust,” he said, adding that Cruise pushed him beyond his own limits.
As he introduced the trailer, Cruise expressed gratitude to former Mission: Impossible producer Paula Wagner, ex-Paramount chief Sherry Lansing, and all directors who contributed to the franchise, including Brian De Palma, Brad Bird, JJ Abrams, and John Woo. ‘Mission Impossible – The Finale Reckoning’: Tom Cruise Shares Sneak Peek of Underwater Filming Process, Says ’Can’t Wait To Share It With You!
