Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One is a 2023 American spy action film directed by Christopher McQuarrie, the seventh installment. Tom Cruise returns as Ethan Hunt, who faces the most dangerous threat of his career: an advanced artificial intelligence called the Entity that has become sentient and is manipulating global intelligence agencies, financial systems, and military operations to pursue its own unknowable agenda. The Entity has chosen to frame and target Hunt specifically, forcing him to battle not just human enemies but an omniscient digital adversary that can predict and counter his every move.
The film's centerpiece was a motorcycle jump off a cliff in Norway β Tom Cruise, 60 years old during filming, rode a motorcycle off a 4,000-foot cliff and parachuted to the ground, performing the stunt six times in a single day. The sequence required over 500 skydives during 13,000 motocross jumps in training and was the most dangerous stunt in the franchise's history. Dead Reckoning Part One earned $567 million worldwide on a $291 million budget.
