I remember reading in an article somewhere that Cruise ideally wants to get filming completed on both films before he turns 60.
Combined with the fact that this is a massive two-parter bringing back pretty most of the entire franchise's supporting cast, makes me think that Ethan will either die or retire by the end.
I think the only confirmed return (beyond the standard team of the last few) is Kitteridge, isn't it?
But not surprising. They are at that level.
Unfortunately, yes. You'll often find sentences as bad as this one in articles published on their website.
Article from the Daily Mail, with more images.
It would be a Tom Cruise thing to do, wouldn't it? :D
Edit: and a video clip. The first article has also been updated with a small clip.
Edit 2: And another view of the stunt!
It will be interesting to see the final result. A bit strange if there's a big ramp there though, but who knows what they have planned.

It’s unclear which one it’ll be, and we don’t yet know if it’s a villainous part or not, but obviously, Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves sharing the screen in an action-packed blockbuster is a mouthwatering prospect, and he’d easily be the biggest star to join the franchise in a long time.
Of course, there’ve been whispers of Cruise bowing out of the series after the next two outings, but if he decides to remain on board a bit longer, then fans would no doubt go wild over seeing two of cinema’s greatest action heroes in the same film.

Ah yes, good point.
Crowe would be good in MI, yeah.
Yeah I'm not sure what's happening with that. Do you remember in the Fallout podcasts McQ said he was kind of setting up Sloane to be a new antagonist for Hunt, sometimes against him, sometimes for him, which the next director could either choose to pick up or not? I'm not aware that she's been announced as being in these new ones so it seems like even he couldn't find a way to use that idea!
I guess it's possible Kitteridge has made Secretary.
Oh man, what a dream come true that would be.
I reckon they might be setting up a heroic sacrifice end for the character. They made a point in the last one of saying he can’t bring himself to retire while there’s still bad guys to stop. The natural end of that imo would be him saving the world with some big, death defying stunt, but dying in the process.
I thought it was a shame they killed Alec Baldwin off in the last one. The series has really lacked an M type figure imo. But Crowe could be a good replacement.
Could be a good Bond villain actually, if MI doesn’t snap him up. I’ve always liked him. He’s got that old school, Connery esque machismo about him, which not that many actors have these days. Or maybe a Felix/Mathis type ally would be better.
