What happens

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is a 2023 American action spy film directed by Christopher McQuarrie from a screenplay he co-wrote with Erik Jendresen. It is the sequel to Mission: Impossible – Fallout (2018) and the seventh installment in the Mission: Impossible film series. The ensemble cast includes Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, Vanessa Kirby, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, Mariela Garriga and Henry Czerny. In the film, Impossible Missions Force agent Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his team face off against the Entity, a powerful rogue artificial intelligence. In January 2019, Cruise announced the next two Mission: Impossible films would be shot back-to-back, with McQuarrie writing and directing both. Returning and new cast members were announced soon after, and Lorne Balfe, who composed the score for Fallout, returned to score. Filming began in Italy in February 2020 but was halted by the COVID-19 pandemic. It resumed later that year and wrapped in September 2021, with other filming locations including Norway, the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates. With an estimated gross budget of $291 million, including a net $220 million budget, it is one of the most expensive films ever made. Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One premiered in Rome on June 19, 2023, and was theatrically released in the United States on July 12, by Paramount Pictures. The film received critical acclaim and grossed $571.1 million worldwide, becoming the tenth-highest-grossing film of 2023, but was still considered to be a box-office disappointment relative to its high production budget, despite being a commercial hit. It was nominated in two categories at the 96th Academy Awards and the 77th British Academy Film Awards. A direct sequel, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, was released in May 2025.
