Tom Cruise’s “Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning” Drops Part 1 in Video Release as Next Chapter Must Be Separate

Share

Oh for the days of “Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1.”

But when the Tom Cruise semi-hit of last summer arrives on streaming January 25th, the Part 1 will be a ghost protocol.

Paramount has retitled the movie after Part 1 was a bit of a box office disappointment last summer. The movie was creamed by “Barbenheimer.”

Now it will be simply “Dead Reckoning.” The next installment will have a new name and concept and maybe undo some of the mistakes in “DR” (like getting rid of Rebecca Ferguson). Also, maybe making the central idea more accessible than “AI.”

The new movie will hit theaters in May 2025 so everyone have a much-needed Cruise break.
