Mission accepted. Hayley Atwell joins Mission: Impossible 7

By Flora / 09 Sep 2019 (Monday)

Best known for her role as Peggy Carter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and on TV’s Agent Carter, Hayley Atwell has signed on to join the next Mission: Impossible 7.

Mission: Impossible 7 director Christopher McQuarrie posted a picture of Atwell’s headshot on social media with the caption: "Should you choose to accept…”. Atwell later commented on the post by saying, "Mission: Accepted. Though I'm not the sort to follow orders..."

At this point, there is no other information who Atwell will be playing - either a new ally to Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise’s character), or even the nemesis! Who knows?

McQuarrie wrote and directed Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) - aka the one where Tom Cruise hanged from a helicopter - which became a huge box office hit, becoming the highest-grossingmovie in the long-running franchise. It’s no wonder McQuarrie is back for a sequel.
