Tom Cruise will return to the Mission: Impossible franchise for a seventh and eighth time as the actor revealed Monday that a pair of sequels will arrive in the summers of 2021 and 2022.
Variety reports that Christopher McQuarrie, who helmed the franchises last two films 2015s Rogue Nation and 2018s Fallout is closing on a deal to write and direct the next two installments. Missions: Accepted, McQuarrie tweeted Monday night.
While Cruise films the in-production Top Gun sequel Top Gun: Maverick, McQuarrie will work on the Mission: Impossible sequels, with plans to shoot the two films back-to-back in order to accomplish its summer 2021 and 2022 goals; the sequels will also avoid a 2020 box office showdown with Top Gun: Maverick as that blockbuster arrives June 26th next year.

Mission: Impossible Fallout, released in July 2018, grossed $220 million domestically with a total of over $790 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film of both the M:I series and of Cruises career. In addition to its success at the box office, Fallout was also critically acclaimed; Peter Travers awarded the film a four-out-of-five star review.
Theres a rumor thatFalloutmay be the last big-screenMission: Impossiblewe get, Travers wrote at the time. If so, then at least Cruise who started this series of super-sized, adrenaline-fueled blockbusters 22 years ago is going out in a blaze of glory.
