We Love Tom Cruise But He NEEDS to Let Ethan Hunt Die in 'Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning'

Look, no one is saying outright that Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoningwill be the last installment in the beloved franchise. But let's be honest—you don't choose that title and conclude your trailer with Tom Cruisesaying, "I need you to trust me one last time," if you're not thinking about the end. With the last film, Dead Reckoning (originally attached with "Part 1" at the end of its title), leaving unsolved business in Ethan Hunt's (Cruise) chase to stop the growth of The Entity, audiences can hardly hold their excitement to watch how this saga concludes. Still, Mission: Impossible fans know how this needs to end. More than death-defying stunts and thrilling chase and combat sequences, The Final Reckoning indicates that our bold and fearless IMF super-spy will meet his heroic demise in his fight to protect humanity. As morbid as it sounds, any other outcome would feel cheapened.
