  • The Mission: Impossible franchise has always been considered a director's showcase, with Brian De Palma, John Woo, J.J. Abrams, Brad Bird and Christopher McQuarrie all putting their stamp on the Tom Cruise dominated franchise. But, Oliver Stone, David Fincher and Joe Carnahan all came close to making their own Mission: Impossible movies. The Joe Carnahan version even had a full cast that included Kenneth Branagh, Scarlett Johansson, Carrie-Anne Moss and more. What Happened to these Unmade Mission Impossible Sequels? We'll tell you all about them in this episode of WTF Happened to this Unmade Movie!

      @davidjames579 Yes, I realize that, but he wasn't established in the way I would think an actor-producer would have had their eye on him at the time as a name that would bring in an American action film audience. If you asked Joe Action movie fan who Wong Kar-Wai is in 1999-2000 then you would have gotten a blank stare. Even many casual Chinese movie goers still think of WKW's films as impenetrable and pretentious, so the thought is not the obvious one, which is what my original comment is about. John Woo WAS somewhat of a household name, even for casual action fans back then. He would have been the first consideration for most producers as a no-brainer if overseas filmmakers were being considered. For Wong, Chungking had already been a sleeper international hit, but the impact wasn't anything like the '2001 A Space Odyssey for romantic dramas' that In the Mood for Love had AFTER Cruise would have been considering this move. Chungking's impact was more of like 'WKW is the Jean Luc-Godard for the MTV generation'. I maintain it's pretty cool TC had his eye on WKW at that time. He's always been smart about the directors he works with and that was a forward thinking consideration for the time. It could have been an inspired choice and shows how much Cruise understands filmmaking from the gut.

      ​@@chungkingexpress94 He didn't need to hire a name director for the audience as the draw was himself and the brand. Anyone who casually read film magazines then would know who WKW was, so Cruise certainly would. In fact he was a cool name of the time, so Cruise would want him for that cachet, just as he backed Alejandro Amenabar's The Others after liking his Open Your Eyes enough to remake it as Vanilla Sky.

    I actually had a chance to read William Goldman's unused 1996 script treatment for MI:2, which was total insane, but real good. I'm not lying on this. Though It was like 64 pages I recall. And Goldman had this story that was under the situation/influence of the oil energy crisis if memory serves right. And he had casts, which the villain he thought of being played by Matthew McConaughey. Other casts included Morgan Freeman, Laurence Olivier, John Gielgud. Ving Rhames returns. Also what is bizarre was Goldman had Stephen Hawking in it.

    These are 3 really great Alternative versions from Oliver Stone, David Fincher & Joe Carnhan were very interesting concepts. But MacQuarrie has got the MI franchise to the best it has been. It should be noted since Brad Birds Ghost Protocol all the movies have had been certified Fresh, something the Franchise had before, as looking on RT the First movie 🍿 is only 66% fresh whilst 2 & 3 are rotten at 57%. Also they made the interesting idea of dropping the numbers from the title.

      IMO it was terrible. John Woo's emotive and romantic style suits the Heroic Bloodshed subgenre, which is like modern wuxia but with criminals and guns instead of martial artists and swords. But Tom Cruise doing action espionage stuff is silly and OTT, so the dramatic moments seem pretentious and Impossible to take seriously
