With the release of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (8), the impossible chain is complete. Whether this is truly Tom Cruise’s swan song as Ethan Hunt or simply "the end of the beginning," one thing is certain: no other action franchise has ever sustained this level of intensity for this long.
Cruise has stated this is the "end of a journey." Whether this means Ethan Hunt dies, retires, or passes the torch to a new operative (Atwell’s Grace or Pom’s Paris) remains unknown. mission impossible 1-8
