Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions has released a full-length trailer for Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, the fourth installment of the franchise that was once left for dead after Tom Cruise’s acrimonious departure from the studio. Cruise and JJ Abrams produced the film and put back together the pieces, and it looks like they’ve put the money on the screen. The last film was released five years ago. Is it me, or does Cruise seem not to have aged a day? Brad Bird directed the film and Jeremy Renner has been added to the cast.

Awesome, awesome, awesome. Particularly cannot wait to see this in IMAX!
This is the movie that Katie couldn’t watch being filmed.
Cruise’s stunts–even with the safety gear–made her nuts. And I admit they look pretty hair-raising.
And he didn’t even ask me to help him out on the really tough ones!
;-)
The black outs between cuts are really annoying.
Looks great!
I think I would have rather seen Brad Bird make Incredibles 2.
I’m surprised no douche bags have trashed Tom Cruise.
Umm, to all the idiot Drama Queens out there and you know who you are:
Tom jumping on Oprah’s couch is nottttttt crazy. It’s an entertainment show and he was confirming his engagement. If he’s crazy than your Daddy, Brother or ANY man you know is a lunatic! Since I guarantee that 99% of the men on this planet called Earth have done more wild things than that.
Others complain that he’s a control freak. Umm, he’s an A-List movie star. What the F****** do you think it takes to get to that level. I’ve met plenty of pretty boy models out there with his level of looks and they can’t act worth squat since they lack the discipline and focus.
Seriously, I’m disgusted at all the d-bags who talk and talk and talk. No wonder half the countries in the world hate us. Because idiots like the ones who trashed Tom Cruise go over to France and say, “You don’t speak any English. It’s the language of the world you should learn.” Umm, you should learn to speak French you d-bag. It’s also why the Japanese call us Gaijin which means foreigner however to most of them it means in slang, “Dumb American!”
Back to my point, Tom Cruise out lasted Val Kilmer, Eddie Murphy Stallone and a whole bunch of A-list stars from the 80’s who are no longer A-List. Cruise is still A-List for a reason. I think it was mostly stupid women who said all the illogical b.s. So, when you go home to your loser husband/boyfriend and then call Tom Cruise a crazy man than you are nothing but an idiot. Again, you know who you are.
Also, to all the idiots who proposed Tom Cruise being less bankable than Jeremy Renner. Really?????? I like Jeremy Renner. However, he’s dozens of blockbusters behind Tom Cruise which makes him no where near as known to the world!! Then I read that morons are proposing that Renner replaces
Tom Cruise in sequels following. Umm, Chuck Norris who is 72 years old and can kick your hide who is reading this right now and he’s currently filming Expendables 2. I think that Tom Cruise still has a lot more time to film more movies don’t you? Morons, seriously to hear all the dumb stuff people say.
Tom, I would think you would have better things to do other than to post a comment about yourself on Deadline.
Like you said, no one has trashed Cruise. Who are you preaching to?
Might be time to go outside and get some fresh air.
Well hello, David Miscavige.
Wow, might want to cut the caffeine a tad.
Dude, I’m a huge Tom Cruise fan. He’s my favorite actor and any movie he’s in, I’m going to watch. You raise a lot of good points but your vitriol makes you lose credibility.
Relax man. It’s only a movie and he’s only an actor, who you’ll never meet or speak to….and if you did meet him, he’d probably ignore you. Get. A. Life.
Dude who are you debating with?
Dude, you were ordered to wait for a trash talking comment before posting this. Bad disciple, more auditing for you.
Dear “Common Sense”, It’s not easy to actually have an Internet argument with YOURSELF, but you’ve managed to do it! Congratulations.
Film looks great! Kinda makes The Incredibles look like…a cartoon;) (BTW-I really liked The Incredibles)
None of you replying to Common Sense made a valid argument.Your replies sound like children trying to argue with a teacher.You guys proved the dumb people he’s talking about do exist.
Don’t forget the pathetic people that make up multiple screen names so they can agree/cosign with themselves in comment sections.
LOL! NIIIICE!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve never seen any of the previous MI films, but this looks pretty good! Would I be lost without seeing the previous ones?
I’m not one who has ever swooned over Tom, but he is a good actor and has a lot of charisma. I hope it does well.
Well don’t worry about it, I would suggest you see the previous MI films before you watch this, but if not then its not a problem every single of these movies has their stand alone plots so you will enjoy it.
The first Mission Impossible film was a classic, IMO. The second was more akin to “James Bond by John Woo.”
The third was forgettable.
See the first if you have time. One of my favorite films of the genre.
The first one was great. The second one sucked donkey balls. Really, really, really bad. Woo’s American films, on the whole, aren’t great.
The third one was a lot of fun. Fast, smart, exciting. Was it perfect? No. But it was light years better than #2.
The only things you might need to get from the earlier ones are their spy vocabulary. Probably find it on the web somewhere.
Let’s be real.
Tom Cruise is offically back.
This will be a major hit, “Oblivion” will be a hit, he’s behaving and audiences abroad still love him dearly.
While Smith has decided to be “past”, Cruise is “future”. He’s money.
Hollywood’s better for it.
Will Smith is “past” and Tom Cruise is “future”?
What an incredibly stupid post.
Damn, haven’t I seen this film already? It looks like they’re remaking the first one: a mission gone wrong….a set-up….Ethan framed….team is disavowed….Ethan goes rogue with team members of dubious intentions in order to uncover larger plot.
Though there were parts of the film that could be interesting, it’s so hard to know for sure because the editor seems unwilling to hold a scene for more than half a second.
Won’t be going to the theater to see this. Cruise is over and he’s taken the series with him. Won’t open to more than $42 million.
And yet another IMF movie where a massive explosion somehow propels Ethan Hunt towards the screen instead of blowing his body apart and decapitating him. And now we’ve got Hunt trying to outrun a sandstorm. A sandstorm?!? What’s next? Outrunning light?
Looks more like they are trying to cover up the weak acting and story with the special effects. This movie is DOA.
Hahaha. Looks truly AWFUL. I’d sooner pay to watch the John Woo one again. At least that one had a discernable villain.
That one was the worst directed of the lot! Woo’s work was awful in it. Luckily he never got near another one ever again.
You’re so far off the mark on MI2. Yes, it was absurd at times, but it was ultimately entertaining. The problem was it wasn’t a “TEAM” movie, which is what MI movies should be–it focused more on Cruise himself, as if it were a Bond film. Regardless, it was so much more entertaining than the meh sequel.
No, I’m not at all, I just find aspects of the direction of the second film abysmal – although you are right that part of the problem was the fact there was relatively little on the Team side of the story.
However, Woo’s direction was completely overblown and wrong for the genre and no matter how many slo-mo’s or doves he put in there was no investing any of that film with the weight or serious-ness that I get the impression he ‘thought’ he was bringing with some of his work.
The first and third are the only ones that even came close to getting the balance right between inherently silly stories and direction to match.
this looks pretty pat.
Now THIS looks like a fun movie. Maybe with JJ and Brad, Tom was outvoted 2 – 1 and therefore quality ensued. This looks like a professional piece of grade-A popcorn. It will be huge and justly so.
Just: wow.
Very underwhelming. Saw a lot of money, and action, but no emotional engagement. The dips to black killed the momentum of the trailer. The film looks like it’s taking itself very seriously. Didn’t sell it to me.
Where’s Ving Rhames? Say it ain’t so. Love this franchise.
MI1 was terrific. I couldn’t figure out what the hell was going on with the plotting in MI2 and 3 (same as with the last Bond). I hope MI4 is as good a story as it obviously is a style exercise.
Agree 100% on MI3. Terrible movie. At least MI-2 was fun to watch, even if it did get silly. MI3 was dreary, forgettable and bland.
Looks like it’s going to be an awesome film. Lousy trailer though with all the superquick cuts and blackouts. I barely saw anything other than being subliminal. I suddenly have a desire for a Coke too.
Can’t wait. Prediction: Best box office yet for a Mission Impossible film. Tom Cruise defies his moronic critics and proves he is still one of Hollywood’s few true stars. My fear: Brad Bird’s success with live action takes him away from animation.
I can’t watch Cruise anymore. Instead of the character, all I see is the grinning, couch jumping, gladhanding, scientology preaching father of Suri. He completely takes me out of the story. I wish him well, but I won’t be seeing anymore of his films. He’s irrelevent to me.
At the 1:45 mark, I thought I saw one of those beads from the movie Starman turn into a windshield map!
Honestly, I have MI4 and Sherlock Holmes marked on my calendar. My wife and I can’t wait until Dec 16 to see it in IMAX. To me, he’s the only movie star we’ll consistently go out to see and maybe the last real movie star the world has left. And if Oblivion is anything visually like Tron was (same director) it will be fantastic! I only wish Tom made two movies a year instead of one. We don’t have many years left man! Cmon December be here already.
It’s Mission Impossible: Alias Edition…where are Jen Garner & Victor Garber? Still looks like a solid trailer.
Looks good, but I think it might be better titled MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: New Ways To Blow Up Tom Cruise.
Like the movies, but am I the only one that thinks the exploding-Tom-across -the-length-of-a-football-field-with-his-arms-gracefully-flailing-but- looking-completely-calm-while-doing-it thing is just BORING now.
What’s next? A nuclear bomb explodes and Tom hurls through the atmosphere with the shock wave landing 20 miles away into one of those Spiderman stances?
I agree me too. I don’t think anyone was asking for another Mission Impossible when almost every Pixar fan I know has been asking for another Incredibles movie.
If you have eyes, how does this look good? Some observations…
1. The story strikes one as utterly familiar ground for the franchise. Team framed. Traitor in midst.
2. The black between the trailer shots is nauseating. Makes the trailer feel choppy.
3. We know from the trailer that Renner is a bad guy. Great SPOIL. What genius thought that was a good idea? I feel like I just saw the whole movie.
4. Why see this over any of hundreds of better explosion films on Blu-Ray at home?
5. All adds up to nothing special. This is not a must-see appointment. Great for a plane ride tho. Box office will be limp.
Agreed. M:I4 seems fairly derivative. The trailer is edited to make it exciting enough, but as we all know not everything in the trailer actually is in the final edit.
Having said that, JJ has a fairly good track record but does have the occasional miss, so his association is no guarantee. And while Brad Bird has proven his directorial chops, it has been almost exclusively with animation. Can he direct live action as well? (Insert your own Cruise/animated character joke here.)
The trailer does rely on some familiar M:I territory – the setup and rogue team, the Cruise-flying-blast, the harness suspension (Renner), running down the side of the skyscraper, they were all seen before. And maybe I missed him in the trailer, but where is Ving Rhames? IMDB credits him in M:I4 so why didn’t Luther show up in the trailer?
This franchise has certainly been all over the map, so Bird & Company have a lot of preconceptions to overcome. I wish them luck, but if this thing is in 3D, I’ll just wait for it to hit HBO, Showtime, or one of the other movie channels.
