Henry Cavill Joins Tom Cruise in ‘Mission: Impossible 6’

Henry Cavill is set to join Tom Cruise in Paramount and Skydance’s next installment in the “Mission: Impossible” franchise.

Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, and Jeremy Renner are also expected to return, though it’s unknown in what capacity.

Christopher McQuarrie, who directed “Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation,” is back to direct this sixth film from a script he wrote.

Plot details are still under wraps but sources say Cavill would play some sort of a right hand to the head of Cruise’s unit. Alec Baldwin played the role of Cruise’s boss in “Mission: Impossible-Rogue Nation” but it is unknown if he will return as the part has been replaced with a new actor (Anthony Hopkins, Laurence Fishburne, Tom Wilkinson) in previous installments.

Cruise will produce along with David Ellison.

The film marks Cavill’s first major job since leaving CAA for WME. Cavill is best known as Superman in Zack Snyder’s most recent reboots and is expected to make his return in “Justice League” this November.

Cavill also has the Iraq war pic “Sand Castle” on Netflix premiering this spring. Besides WME, Cavill is also repped by manager Dany Garcia of the Garcia Companies and Gang, Tyre, Ramer and Brown.

not even sure if this belongs here but not really sure if threadworthy on it's own but...

It's official: Robert Downey Jr. is your new 'Dr. Dolittle'

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new Dr. Dolittle.

Robert Downey Jr. is trading Avengers for animals, and taking on the beloved children's book character in a new film called The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle. Universal confirmed the news on Monday.

The upcoming film is to be helmed by Stephen Gaghan (Syriana), who won an Oscar for best adapted screenplay for Traffic in 2001.

Universal won the project after what it termed "a highly competitive situation" in Hollywood.

Dr. John Dolittle made his debut in the 1920s series of children’s books by Hugh Lofting. The character, who shuns humans in favor of animals (who he can speak to), was played on the big screen by Rex Harrison in 1967's Doctor Dolittle and Eddie Murphy in a 1998 adaptation (and 2001 sequel).

[KingParappa]

[Master Zik]

Yeah, I'd shoot that club up. The show Married got me hooked.

Would be interested in seeing something in the Matrix universe about one of the failed "Ones"

Or even something set in the other two failed Matrixes (what's the official plural of Matrix? )

The universe is vast enough where you don't have to reboot

 

[KingParappa]

Matrices.

And I'd love to see some of the previous cycles.

 

[rfx45]

I think I read somewhere that the new Matrix film will be a prequel for Morpheus and that is why MJB is the one being considered as the lead.

Assassins Creed Series for Netflix sounds perfect for it, would be awesome if they can keep Fassbender too.

During the recent AMA on Reddit, Assassin's Creed Head of Content, Ymar Azaiza revealed that Ubisoft is fond of producing a TV series set in the universe of Assassin's and Templars. "We will take our time to get sure we deliver something we can be proud of”, Azaiza said on the topic.

Back in 2016, Yves Guillemot, the head of French games developer mentioned on the annual shareholders meeting that his company was negotiating with Netflix for a new series. There's a big change that this series could be Assassin's Creed, but no public announcement has been made yet.

 

[Fresh Like Will]

I think Watch Dogs or Splinter Cell would make good shows if Ubi wants to make shows out of their games. A good spy story with stealth that unravels over time as the lead breaks down some conspiracy.

 

[KingParappa]

Splinter Cell would be cool.
