Mission: Impossible 7, Top Gun 2 – the next films with Tom Cruise again (… – LargeScreen.com

We will have to redouble our patience for the return of Tom Cruise to the bill and the releases of Mission: Impossible 7 and Top Gun: Maverick, still pushed back.

While we haven’t seen it on the big screen since the impressive Mission: Impossible – Fallout in 2018 (review here), Hollywood’s most legendary daredevil, Tom cruise, will still make its fans wait for many months, since its next two films, Mission: Impossible 7 and Top Gun: Maverick were once again rejected by Paramount.

As reported Deadline, the studio has again changed its schedule, again due to the health crisis and more particularly concerns around the Delta variant and its spread, which still prevents a return to normal for dark rooms and their spectators. The next blockbuster of Christopher McQuarrie, who promises ever more suicidal stunts, therefore passed from May 27, 2022 to September 30, 2022 (while it was initially scheduled for July 2021 with a disrupted start of filming in February 2020).

Ethan Hunt is waiting for the right time to show up

Following Top Gun realized by Joseph Kosinski took over the slot left vacant by Mission: Impossible 7, by switching its release from November 19, 2021 to May 27, 2022 (for Memorial Day weekend), leaving the 2021 poster when it was first scheduled for June 2020. Maverick will therefore return to its cockpit at the same time as its predecessor, which had collected more than $ 357 million at the global box office in 1986.

At the same time, the studio has also delayed the release of Jackass 4, which goes from October 22, 2021 to February 4, 2022. Sony then took advantage of Paramount’s schedule change to move Ghostbusters: The Legacy days and grab Thanksgiving weekend on November 19, 2021.

Take off is not for now

Paramount has high hopes and high expectations (especially financial) for the two blockbusters of Tom Cruise, which are among the most anticipated by the public and must therefore put all the odds in their side. Mission: Impossible 7 promises to be even crazier than the previous part with Henry cavill, which holds the record for the saga: more than $ 791 million at the global box office. For his part, Top Gun: Maverick is clearly calibrated for the big screen (one of the reasons the studio did not want to sell the film to Apple or Netflix), with seemingly new technology and dizzying flight sequences that we long to see.

To console ourselves and take our pain patiently as best we can, we come back to the first one Impossible mission this way, as well as on top the worst and the best of the franchise over there. We also focus on Tom Cruise’s career on this side.
