Tom Cruise closes deal for Mission: Impossible 6 as pre-production resumes

September 17, 2016 by Amie Cranswick

Last month it was announced that Paramount had halted pre-production on M:I 6 Mission Impossible, the sixth instalment of the blockbuster spy franchise, owing to contractual disputes with producer and leading man Tom Cruise.

However, it looks like the issues have now been ironed out, as The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that Cruise is now on the verge of closing his deal, and the project is once again moving forward. Initially, filming was set to get underway in January, although this has now been pushed back until the Spring.

M:I 6 Mission Impossible will see Cruise reuniting with Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation director Christopher McQuarrie and leading lady Rebecca Ferguson. It was initially slated for release in 2017, but there’s been no word as to whether this will be pushed back due to the delayed production start.
