'Mission Impossible' scraps plans to film 7th and 8th installments back-to-back due to coronavirus: report
Fox News
The “Mission Impossible” franchise may have hit another snag in production.
The seventh installment of the popular action franchise has been waylaid several times by the ongoing pandemic. Production halted early on as cases in Italy, where the film was hoping to shoot in February of 2020, soared. After that delay, robust measures were put in place to allow the cast and crew to safely film on location. However, further delays cropped up as the film shot in Italy, Norway, the U.K. and more. According to a report from Deadline, the delays affected the franchise’s original plans to film the next two films back-to-back. Paramount was reportedly put in a sticky situation thanks to star Tom Cruise’s other upcoming movie "Top Gun: Maverick."More Related News
