    Mission: Impossible 6 Pre-production Shut Down

    The Hollywood Reporter has brought some new information about the next instalment in the Mission Impossible franchise, which might cause some distress to the fans. According to the outlet, the pre-production of the sixth Mission Impossible film has been shut down due to some salary disputes between Tom Cruise and Paramount Pictures. As everyone knows, Tom plays the lead character, Ethan Hunt, in the franchise which started back in 1996.

    The report by THR says that “one of the contentious points is Cruise’s back-end profit participation, with the actor looking to match or exceed what he is getting paid by Universal for starring in The Mummy… Mummy is a pivotal movie for Universal, which is looking to launch a cinematic franchise and has hinged plenty on Cruise’s star power”. The shooting for the film was initially planned to commence from November this year but it did not. Because of some issues over the script, the shooting was pushed back to January 2017.

    Let’s hope that Paramount and Cruise resolve their differences and proceed with the project. Fans have been waiting for a sequel ever since ‘Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation’ came out. The movie was a huge success at the box office, bringing in $682 million worldwide.
