Well, they’ve found their replacement in the Man of Steel himself: Henry Cavill. As stated, the film is set to begin production this fall and is being directed by Guy Ritchie.

Tom Cruise is set to produce and star in a fifth installment in the Mission: Impossible franchise. There’s no script or director at this time, but rumor has it that Jack Reacher director Christopher McQuarrie is a likely candidate. Jack Reacher was well done and that direction would definitely be well suited in the M:I universe. As a fan of Tom Cruise and the M:I franchise, I’m all sorts of excited about this news.
