Paramount has shared a new trailer for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning at CinemaCon. After making his debut as superspy Ethan Hunt in 1996’s original Mission: Impossible, Tom Cruise will return as the character for the upcoming eighth installment, facing off against Gabriel (Esai Morales) and the Entity once more after 2023’s Dead Reckoning. The Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning story is potentially set to serve as Ethan’s swansong, with trailers teasing Cruise’s biggest stunts yet.
Recently, at CinemaCon 2025, where ScreenRant was in attendance, the studio unveiled a new teaser for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. The teaser opens with Hunt clinging to the side of a small-engine plane, with snippets from previous movies then flashing across the screen. This includes his CIA vault heist from the original movie, but also the Kremlin bombing from Ghost Protocol and Hunt’s gassing of intelligence community leaders in Dead Reckoning.
The trailer then cuts to Hunt being arrested by the military, presumably to work for them, with Gabriel voiceover taunting: “Your team has betrayed you. All of your secrets, compromised.” Then Eugene Kittridge (Henry Czerny) says, “Everything you are. Everything you’ve done has come to this.” The trailer shows Hunt and his team getting an aircraft carrier to accomplish their mission, before footage plays of Cruise clinging to the side of a plane, jumping into the ocean, and trying to survive underwater. The trailer ends with Hunt saying to his team, “I need you to trust me one last time.”
This is developing…
