Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol Film Trailer

Do we need a fourth Mission Impossible film? Does 48 year old Tom Cruise still have it in him to handle the physically intense action scenes required of his MI character, Ethan Hunt? And can first-time live-action feature film director Brad Bird (The Incredibles, Ratatouille) handle the huge action sequences Mission Impossible films are known for? It's impossible to know the answers to these questions until Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol hits theaters in December, but judging solely by the trailer, it appears as though the answer to all of the above questions is yes.

Take a look at the first trailer for the fourth Mission Impossible and see what you think:

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol stars Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton, and Simon Pegg, and will hit theaters in December 2011.

The Plot:

This is not just another mission.  

The IMF is shut down when it’s implicated in a global terrorist, bombing plot.  Ghost Protocol is initiated and Ethan Hunt and his rogue new team must go undercover to clear their organization’s name.   No help, no contact, off the grid.  You have never seen a mission grittier and more intense than this.
