More additions to the cast have also been made, with Game Of Thrones’ Indira Varma, Stranger Things’ Cary Elwes, Sherlock’s Mark Gatiss and Transformers: Age Of Extinction’s Charles Parnell all being signed up for the movie.

Director Christopher McQuarrie announced the new recruits on his Instagram page yesterday (March 12), posting a photo of each actor on set. “Welcome to the community,” he wrote in one caption. He also used the hashtag #MI7MI8, suggesting that the stars could also be seen in Mission: Impossible 8.

The eighth chapter of the series was due to be filmed back-to-back with M:I7, but will now reportedly go into production in 2022 to allow the cast and crew to have a break.

Production on Mission: Impossible 7, meanwhile, has suffered several setbacks, due to the coronavirus pandemic and injuries on set. In August, shooting was halted after a motorbike accident happened while filming in Oxfordshire.

According to reports, a stuntman’s bike exploded as it leapt from a ramp. Nobody was said to be hurt in the incident, but production was forced to shut down again.
