On Day 2 of the Cannes Film Festival, Tom Cruise brought the house down with the premiere of his upcoming action thriller Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, receiving a standing ovation lasting about five minutes. This thunderous response from the viewers left Cruise emotional, as he was seen with watery eyes. Tom Cruise was joined by director Christopher McQuarrie, as well as fellow cast members Hayley Atwell, Simon Pegg, Hannah Waddingham, Angela Bassett, Esai Morales, Pom Klementieff, and Greg Tarzan Davis on Day 2 of the festival.
Mission: Impossible premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on its second day. Ahead of the film's release, it received a thunderous response with a five-minute-long standing ovation from the audience present at the venue, leaving the cast and especially Tom Cruise overwhelmed.
Before the premiere of the much-anticipated film, the cast walked the red carpet, and what caught everyone's attention was that Tom Cruise, along with the film’s members, walked the carpet with the iconic Mission: Impossible theme music playing live. An orchestra stationed at the end of the carpet and near the entrance of the screening hall created a dramatic and cinematic atmosphere.
Tom Cruise attends Masterclass at Cannes
The masterclass event at the ongoing Cannes Film Festival became even more special when Tom Cruise made a surprise appearance to celebrate his longtime friend and filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie, as per Deadline.
Speaking about his admiration for McQuarrie, Cruise said, "I studied his career before we even met. I read his scripts, and what always struck me is that you could hear it, you could see it. I felt the filmmaker’s mind in the story — the craftsmanship of his work, where he’s writing it editorially."
Cruise also praised McQuarrie’s meticulous attention to detail and storytelling, calling the Mission: Impossible films “a Swiss watch” because of how intricately they are built.
The duo has collaborated on over 11 films together, including Jack Reacher, Edge of Tomorrow, and five Mission: Impossible installments. Cannes 2025 officially kicked off on May 13 and will run until May 24.
