Tom Cruise is often considered the last remaining classic movie star, and a major reason is the Mission: Impossible franchise. He initially revitalized the series with the 1996 film, and it’s become one of the most reliably successful franchises in movie history thanks to directors like J.J. Abrams, Brad Bird, and Christopher McQuarrie who have consistently found new ways to keep it fresh.
In 2025, Tom Cruise finished his run with the Mission: Impossible series after the release of Final Reckoning. Paramount originally planned a big, two-part ending, beginning with Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One in 2023. However, that plan ultimately changed.
