TheMission: Impossible 6trailer is due to arrive in just a couple of days now, going online during Super Bowl Sunday, and Paramount Pictures has released a snippet of footage teasing what fans can expect fromMission: Impossible – Fallout. The film findsMission: Impossible -Rogue Nationwriter/directorChristopher McQuarriereprising his duties, marking the first director to repeat in theMission: Impossiblefranchise. But even from this small montage of footage it’s clear that McQuarrie is going a very different direction with this movie, and indeed he’s said repeatedly that his stipulation for coming back was that it had to feel like a completely differentMissionmovie.
But I’ll admit the thing that has me most excited in this trailer teaser isHenry Cavillpunching the air. As a big fan ofCharlie Hunnamrattling his fists in the underratedKing Arthur: Legend of the Sword, this is right up my alley. Seriously though, Cavill looks pretty terrific here, and I’m excited for larger audiences to hopefully see another side to the actor. He was incredible in the underseenMan from U.N.C.L.E.(for real guys,Guy Ritchie’s making really fun movies right now and you’re missing out), and it very much looks like he’s playing the Big Bad inFallout. Who wouldn’t want to see Tom Cruise vs. Henry Cavill? Side note: Cruise was initially poised to star inMan from U.N.C.L.E.before pulling out to focus onRogue Nation, at which point Cavill took over the role. And there I’ve brought this full circle. That’s journalism, folks.

All of this said, I’m extremely excited forMission: Impossible – Falloutyou should be too. Check out theMission: Impossible 6trailer teaser below.
