The Tom Cruise led fourth instalment of the Mission Impossible franchise, the stupidly monikered Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, has gotten itself a brand new TV spot. Despite the name, and the appalling posters the clips and trailer for this impossible mission actually look pretty damn good.
Loosely following the plot from the original the new movie sees Cruise’s Ethan Hunt and his team blamed for a terrorist attack and on a mission to prove their innocence, using the typical death-defying stunts and explosive action staples that mark all the work of the Impossible Mission Force.
The movie marks the feature film debut of Pixar Animation’s gifted director Brad Bird, and sees Cruise joined by an all-star cast that includes Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton, Josh Holloway, Simon Pegg, Michael Nyqvist, and Tom Wilkinson.
Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol is out in cinemas December 26th.
Synopsis:
Director Brad Bird and Producer J.J. Abrams bring us the action packed, entertainment event of the holiday season with Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. This is not just another mission. The IMF is shut down when it’s implicated in a global terrorist bombing plot. Ghost Protocol is initiated and Ethan Hunt and his rogue new team must go undercover to clear their organization’s name. No help, no contact, off the grid. You have never seen a mission grittier and more intense than this.
