This May, after almost thirty years, “Mission Impossible” is coming to a close with the release of the eighth movie in the franchise, “Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning”, which will released in cinemas around the world.

Tom Cruise once again returns as Ethan Hunt, with Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, Henry Czerny, Holt McCallany, and Mariela Garriga.   Janet McTeer, Nick Offerman, Hannah Waddingham, Tramell Tillman, Shea Whigham, Greg Tarzan Davis, Charles Parnell, Mark Gatiss, Rolf Saxon, Lucy Tulugarjuk, and Angela Bassett round out the cast.

The upcoming film has been directed by Christopher McQuarrie and the executive producers include David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger, and Chris Brock.

When Is “Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning” Released?

“Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning” will be released exclusively in cinemas around the world on May 23rd 2025.

When Will “Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning” Be On Disney+?

Unfortunately, for Disney+ subscribers, “Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning” has been created and distributed by Paramount, so it will not be available to Disney+ subscribers.

Instead, once it’s finished its theatrical release and has been available for purchase on digital platforms for a few months, it’ll be heading to Paramount+ in the United States and in many other countries around the world. 

However, Disney does have a licensing deal in place with Paramount for some films in the United States and currently, the first five films in the “Mission Impossible” franchise are available to stream on Hulu and also Hulu On Disney+. So maybe in a few years time, the latest “Mission Impossible” film could become available on Disney+ due to licensing deals.

The five films available on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ include:

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (1996)

When U.S. government operative Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his mentor, Jim Phelps (Jon Voight), go on a covert assignment that takes a disastrous turn, Jim is killed, and Ethan becomes the prime murder suspect. Now a fugitive, Hunt recruits brilliant hacker Luther Stickell (Ving Rhames) and maverick pilot Franz Krieger (Jean Reno) to help him sneak into a heavily guarded CIA building to retrieve a confidential computer file that will prove his innocence.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 2 (2000)

Tom Cruise returns to his role as Ethan Hunt in the second installment of “Mission: Impossible.” This time Ethan Hunt leads his IMF team on a mission to capture a deadly German virus before it is released by terrorists. His mission is made impossible due to the fact that he is not the only person after samples of the disease. He must also contest with a gang of international terrorists headed by a turned bad former IMF agent who has already managed to steal the cure.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III (2006)

Retired from active duty, and training recruits for the Impossible Mission Force, agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) faces the toughest foe of his career: Owen Davian (Philip Seymour Hoffman), an international broker of arms and information, who is as cunning as he is ruthless. Davian emerges to threaten Hunt and all that he holds dear — including the woman Hunt loves.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL (2011)

Blamed for a terrorist attack on the Kremlin, Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and the entire IMF agency are disavowed by the U.S. government, while the president initiates the Ghost Protocol. Forced to go “off the grid” — left without resources or backup — Hunt must somehow clear the agency’s name and prevent another attack. Complicating matters even more, Ethan must undertake the impossible mission with a group of fellow IMF fugitives whose actual motives are suspect.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – ROGUE NATION (2015)

With the IMF now disbanded and Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) out in the cold, a new threat — called the Syndicate — soon emerges. The Syndicate is a network of highly skilled operatives who are dedicated to establishing a new world order via an escalating series of terrorist attacks. Faced with what may be the most impossible mission yet, Ethan gathers his team and joins forces with Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson), a disavowed British agent who may or may not be a member of this deadly rogue nation.
