“Mission: Impossible 8” Will Be Tom Cruise’s Last (and Craziest)
Mission: Impossible 7 has likely been Tom Cruise’s hardest challenge yet. This is due to several factors, the first, and most consistently pressing, was the pandemic. This next installment in Cruise’s now two-decade-old franchise has seen its production shut down due to COVID-19 multiple times, forcing Cruise, writer/director Christopher McQuarrie, and the cast and crew to pivot, time and again, with each fresh delay.
