13 Unlikely Movies That Might Exist 10 Years From Now
11. Mission: Impossible Reboot
Why It's Unlikely: Because Tom Cruise is a freaking machine, and with the sixth Mission: Impossible movie set to start shooting next year, rebooting it any time soon would be a major misstep considering Cruise's box office vigour and the strong health of the franchise.
Why It Might Happen: Remember that Cruise is currently 54 years old even though he doesn't look it. Throw another 10 years out there and he's going to look at least a little ridiculous taking on the same intense set-pieces.
What's most likely is that Cruise will be slowly eased out of the franchise by filling his team up with younger team members who, once they're proven to be a success with fans, can eventually take up Cruise's mantle.
It'll be more of a stealth reboot than anything, but it'll happen eventually either way. Whether Cruise's exceptional longevity will hold out another decade or not remains to be seen.
