Vanessa Kirby is Returning For The Upcoming MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE Sequels
Another past Mission: Impossible character is coming back for some more action in the upcoming two sequels that are currently in development. Vanessa Kirby has confirmed in an interview with Glamour Magazine UK, that she will be reprising her role as Alanna Mitsopolis, a.k.a. the White Widow.
This character made her debut in Mission: Impossible - Fallout as an arms dealer who helps out Tom Cruise‘s Ethan Hunt. As expected, we don’t have any information on how she’ll be utilized in the story, but it’ll be good to see her again.
Christopher McQuarrie is directing Mission: Impossible 7 and 8 back-to-back, and they will see Ethan Hunt embark on a whole new adventure! We’ll also get to see Tom Cruise risk his life to pull off more crazy-ass insane stunts! When previously talking about the film, the filmmaker said:
“I pitched the idea of making two movies, and now I have to justify why it’s two movies. You’ve got to earn that. You’ve got to make something that swallows the last three movies whole. I’m freaked out now. We’ve talked ourselves into something. Holy shit.”
I’m a big loyal fan of this franchise and I can’t wait to see what this creative team has in store. Could these two films end up being the best movies yet? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!
Kirby joins the previously announced cast, which also includes Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Henry Czerny, Hayley Atwell, Shea Whighman, Nicholas Hoult, and Pom Klementieff.
Mission: Impossible 7 film will be released on July 23rd, 2021, while Mission: Impossible 8 will be released on August 5th, 2022.
