It could be kiss and make up time for Tom Cruise and Paramount Pictures. Unceremoniously fired by the studio's parent company boss Sumner Redstone in 2006, Cruise is said to be returning to the Paramount fold for another Mission: Impossible movie to be supervised by J.J. Abrams.
Updating last summer's rumors, Variety reports that Cruise and Abrams will co-produce Mission: Impossible IV. Target release date: 2011. Paramount did not respond to Wired.com queries about the report.
2006's Mission: Impossible III rang up $398 million in box office, despite so-so critical response and tepid reaction from M:I true believers.
What do you think? Has Mission: Impossible worn out its welcome, or do you hanker for more? Weigh in below.
