We’ve heard rumblings for a while now that a fourth Mission: Impossible film is in development. Last we heard. Tom Cruise claimed on a Japanese television show that he was “working on the story right now” and has been “thinking about how to stage a big action sequence in downtown Tokyo.” I just assumed that Cruise was talking out of his behind. And there have even been rumors that the fourth film could be a complete reboot.
Well now JJ Abrams confirms to TV Guide that he will be re teaming with Tom Cruise to produce Mission: Impossible 4.
According to Abrams, “Tom and I have come up with a really cool idea we are pursuing.” So it appears there is an actual story idea after all. Has a screenwriter been hired? Not yet. Abrams says that he’s “incredibly honored” that Tom invited him back, and he has not yet committed to return as director.
With the monster hit called Star Trek now unleashed, I wouldn’t expect Abrams to return behind the camera for another chapter of the action spy franchise. He’s probably looking at bigger and better opportunities. [/film] [ad#filmguide-1]
