Plot Summary

Mission: Impossible – Fallout begins after a mission goes disastrously wrong, forcing Ethan Hunt, portrayed by Tom Cruise, and his trusted allies into a relentless race against time. As the consequences of failure ripple outward, Hunt finds himself facing not only a global threat but also the growing pressure of accountability. Part of the film was shot in New Zealand, adding sweeping landscapes to a story driven by urgency, precision, and escalating tension.

As the sixth installment of the Mission: Impossible series, the film places Ethan Hunt and the IMF team in one of their most precarious situations yet. Following a compromised operation in Berlin, Hunt’s refusal to prioritize protocol over human lives puts him at odds with the CIA, landing him on their blacklist. Yet when a new and devastating danger emerges that threatens humanity itself, old rivalries must be set aside. Allies and enemies alike are drawn into a high-stakes pursuit where every second matters, and a single misstep could lead to irreversible catastrophe.

Alongside Tom Cruise, the film features Ving Rhames as Luther Stickell, Simon Pegg as Benji Dunn, and Rebecca Ferguson as Ilsa Faust. They are joined by Alec Baldwin as Alan Hunley, Sean Harris as the ruthless Solomon Lane, Michelle Monaghan as Julia Meade, as well as Henry Cavill, Vanessa Kirby, and Angela Bassett. Together, they shape a tense and explosive chapter that explores loyalty, sacrifice, and the personal cost of choosing to save lives over following orders.
