Rebecca Ferguson confirms her return to M:I 7

Yeah, as it seems like a solid $ maker if done right. so I doubt the Mission Impossible series will totally die off, as even if Cruise retires etc the series will be back in some form I suspect.



Yeah, as I think even being generous he does not look younger than 40 something. but, in my opinion, I think he looks roughly late 40's which ain't bad considering he's nearing 57. so he looks roughly a decade under his actual age.

so if that him looking roughly 10 years or so under his actual age holds for the foreseeable future, we might have something around 5-10 years left before he might have to retired from the role.

but even putting aside him looking younger aside, which seems to be easy for Cruise, it will also depend on his body being able to do the physical stunts etc as I suspect his looks will last longer than his body in that regard which is why, even though in terms of his look, he might be able to go for roughly another 5-10 years, his body probably won't be able to, at least not at the level he's doing it lately.

but then again... some people like Liam Neeson seem to be decent action stars and they are into their 60's. so people like Liam Neeson can do it, Cruise surely can for years to come.



Yeah, as while they can possibly work without him if done right, they will almost surely be better with him overall. plus, many of us affiliate him with the Mission Impossible name in general. so if in the future they change leads for whatever reason, it might be more difficult for us to look past it unless they sort of turn things into more James Bond-like where the series continues on for generations with multiple different leads and then we might start to get a bit more used to the lead changes. but then again I suspect there are still some die hard Sean Connery fans in regards to James Bond that have a herd time seeing James Bond as anyone else besides Connery even though many of the younger generations, while they like Connery, and might still consider him one of the best, if not the best, they also like the others playing the James Bond role to.

but regardless of when Cruise hangs up his affiliation with the Mission Impossible series... it does seem almost inevitable they will continue that series at some point as it just seems like a safe bet for $ making if they spend the proper time making it and anything that can make solid $, tends to get made at some point or another.
