After more than two years since production began, Simon Pegg has shared an exciting update on the filming of "Mission: Impossible 8." The eighth installment in the Tom Cruise-led action franchise was initially intended to be shot back-to-back with its predecessor, "Dead Reckoning." However, plans changed, and production officially started in March 2022. Following a hiatus due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes, filming resumed in March 2024, with set videos and photos hinting at the thrilling action to come.
Pegg recently took to his Instagram (via CinemaBlend) to share a video post on his Story, announcing that he has wrapped filming on "Mission: Impossible 8." The actor expressed his enthusiasm for the hard work he and his co-stars put into the next installment, celebrating it as a "f----ng incredible spectacle" and sharing his excitement for audiences to see it. See what Pegg shared below:
"I just wrapped my last day on Mission Impossible and said farewell to everybody. We started shooting the first part of this story in September 2020, and now, here we are in July 2024. What a journey it has been. And what a f----ng incredible spectacle this next film is going to be. I'm so excited for you to see it. Until then, Benji Dunn signing off."
