Originally scheduled for June 28, 2024, the latest Tom Cruise movie will not be hitting theaters on May 23, 2025. Paramount Pictures was forced to halt the production of 'Mission: Impossible' movie due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike and now it won’t be completed before next summer.

The seventh 'Mission: Impossible' movie was released just before 'Oppenheimer' and 'Barbie' and could not meet the expectations of its fans. It ended with collecting $567 million globally.
