Brace yourself for the action rush of ‘Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One’

The action is set to ramp up in the seventh instalment of the Mission: Impossible franchise, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One and Hollywood megastar Tom Cruise is facing his greatest-ever challenge as Ethan Hunt in this blockbuster event.

Watch the official trailer for Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One below:

Here’s the official synopsis:

Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his IMF team embark on their dangerous mission to track down a terrifying weapon that threatens humanity before it falls into the wrong hands. With control of the future and the fate of the world at stake, and dark forces from Ethan’s past closing in, a deadly race around the globe begins. Confronted by a mysterious and a powerful nemesis named Gabriel, Ethan is forced to consider that nothing can matter more than his mission – not even the lives of those he cares about most.

Continuing in his long-time partnership with Cruise is filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie and both he and Cruise are pushing Ethan Hunt further than he’s ever been before in this intense new spy thriller-action film that places emphasis on a do-or-die mission that will take Hunt to his absolute limits.

The trailer is bold and places audiences right at the forefront of the drama as Hunt faces an extreme new threat from a dangerous shadow from his past in the form of Esai Morales Gabriel. Morales’ Gabriel is hellbent on Hunt’s death, along with the literal collapse of the IMF and he’s a smouldering threat who will very happily stick the knife into Cruise’s Hunt.

And let’s not forget the action. And damn does Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One crank this up here. Not only do we have a deeper look at the film’s signature motorcycle cliff jump, but we also get a decent look at both a high-stakes car chase through the streets of London, along with a brutal fight between Hunt and Gabriel aboard a fast-moving train. And it’s winner take all!

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is fully going for it with its rush of action and energy and audiences who are seeking their adrenaline will find it with this picture when it arrives in cinemas on July 13.
