Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie will not let the failure of

Mission: Impossible- Dead Reckoning part one

slow down their partnership. They have worked together on Cruise’s last few films, including Mission Impossible, Top gun: Maverick, and Jack reacher. McQuarrie gained recognition with his script for The Usual Suspects, which he parlayed into his debut outing as both the writer and director of a violent, crime thriller with a side of dark comedy titled The Way of the Gun back in 2000.McQuarrie is coming back to his harder-edged roots on a secret project with Cruise that he’s describing as a “gnarly” R-rated film. McQuarrie hinted at the project in 2020 and when he spoke with Empire in depth about Dead Reconing Part One

he confirmed that the project is still in the works. He and writer Erik Jendresen wrote the script. McQuarrie said, “There’s a film that Cruise and me are talking about doing in the future or some probable future, that Erik and myself developed together. It’s been referred to online as ‘The Gnarly Movie.’ It’s that movie that they’re all asking for, and that we want to do.”In 2020, the Mission: Impossible

filmmaker reflected on the first Jack Reacher when he first revealed details about the “gnarly” film as the pair first wanted to take the Jack Reacher franchise to a darker tone, “Tom and I were talking about, had the series continued, to take Reacher to a place where, in the post-Deadpool, post-Joker world, Reacher could have been an R-rated movie and an R-rated franchise and really fed into the brutality of those books. We were ready to embrace that.” We haven’t moved forward, but the franchise has. We’ve got some new stuff in the works. The stuff we’re talking about now is tinker toys , I’m actually very, very excited.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvKatXhf5Io[…]
