Tom Cruise’s newest "Mission: Impossible" movie was nearly an impossible mission itself, as the film's writer director Christopher McQuarrie told EW. The first roadblock came as the film was about to go into production in Italy in February 2020, just as the country was being hit hardest with the COVID-19 pandemic and the world was shutting down.
"We were in Venice, Italy, two days away from shooting in February 2020," McQuarrie said. "We were at ground zero for the pandemic." Once they were finally underway, filming around the world in countries like England, Dubai and Norway, they ran into another problem.
Nicholas Hoult had been cast as the villain, but had to drop out due to commitments to his Hulu series, "The Great." He was replaced with Esai Morales. McQUarrie noted the one of the film’s stars, franchise newcomer Hayley Atwell, "might have been on this movie for well over 100 days before she had her first dialog scene, owing to the chaotic nature of the production." Even with all the "chaos", McQuarrie never doubted finishing the film, especially with Cruise on board.
"When you're making a movie with Tom, that's not really a factor," he told the outlet. "And on these movies, we like to say, 'Disaster is an opportunity to excel.' We lean into the chaos.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Simon Pegg and Tom Cruise have been “Mission: Impossible” co-stars and friends since meeting during the production of J.J. Abrams’ third installment, which opened in theaters in 2006, but that doesn’t mean the two discuss Cruise’s ties to Scientology. During an interview on BBC’s “Desert Island Discs” radio show, Pegg said he does not ask Cruise about anything related to his “personal beliefs” because “that would be me abusing my privileged access that I get to him.” That means Scientology questions are off the table. So what does Pegg talk to Cruise about? Cruise’s mega-fame, for starters. “We joke about it,” Pegg said. “I mean, I always make fun of him for it, you know, about the things that he can access. We were filming in South Africa recently on this mountain and then he decided he wanted to swim with sharks. He flew us in a helicopter to this seaside part and we dived with sharks.
