Mission Impossible 4 Movie Updates

Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, the fourth Tom Cruise super spy film and first sequel to drop the number from its title, is currently shooting for its late 2011 release. It's been five years since the last sequel of Mission Impossible. We're all wondering if Ethan can still do the stunts like what Tom used to do --- or maybe the other way around.

The new images feature franchise star Tom Cruise, 48 years young but still in great action hero shape, as well as co-stars Simon Pegg and Paula Patton in cold Vancouver outdoor weather after moving production over to Canada from Dubai.

Ghost Protocol is touted as being the potential start to a new direction (and lead star) for the franchise, with newfound Hollywood A-lister Jeremy Renner joining the cast of M:I4 with the objective of the studio to have him take over the series from Cruise. Along with the powerful addition of Renner, fan-favorite Lost star Josh Holloway and Just Wright’s Paula Patton join the cast which also includes Mission: Impossible familiars Simon Pegg and Ving Rhames.

Take a look on some of the pictures from the movie shoot:
