The plot details for Mission: Impossible IV remain under wraps, yet director Brad Bird (The Incredibles) is adding an intriguing international cast to the high-profile actioner starring Tom Cruise. Paramount confirms that French actress Lea Seydoux will play a villain. The actress, last seen in Robin Hood, was in the running for the starring role in The Girl With a Dragon Tattoo — an opportunity that must have raised her profile in Hollywood. And Anil Kapoor, the game show host in 2008′s Slumdog Millionaire, is set to play a supporting role that’s been kept hush-hush. Rumors that he would also play a baddie along with original Girl with the Dragon Tattoo star Michael Nyqvist are not true.
Production on Impossible is set to begin shortly. The studio has set next December for its release date.
I am disappointed that Tom Cruise’s hair isn’t short like it was in the first and third films in the series.
The cast is lacking female characters and young male characters.
It has been reported that Tom Cruise and Michael Nyqvist have an epic 5 page fight sequence at the end of the film. I hope that Tom Cruise uses a few KFM (Keysi Fighting Method) moves like he did in M:i:III.
It would be good if the plot is based on current affairs and the IMF battles a real world threat such as Al-Qaeda, the Taliban, Iranian or North Korean extremists, Somali pirates, etc.
Tom Cruise is a fudge packer in Southpark Colorado. How will he be able to make this movie?
It would be good if they include Henry Czerny, Thandie Newton, Anthony Hopkins, John Polson, Michelle Monaghan, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Maggie Q and Laurence Fishburne and hopefully conclude the series.
I hope that the main villain’s name will be Vanning which was originally going to be the name of the main villain in M:i:III before they changed it to Owen Davian.
I hope that Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts appear in M:i:IV as I’ve always wanted to see Tom Cruise do a movie with each of them.
I’ll just go on record as saying as much as I think Tom Cruise has become a a bit…. loony, He’s never made a movie I didn’t like.
And as much as I think you shouldn’t make judgement’s on a guy you don’t know personally I agree he has rarely made bad films.
