Henry Cavill joins Tom Cruise in 'Mission: Impossible 6'

Actor Henry Cavill is teaming up with Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise for the sixth installment in Mission Impossible series. Director Christopher McQuarrie took to Instagram to break the news that the Superman star will be joining the American action spy movie with Cruise in the lead.

"Say, @henrycavill. Had a thought. Curious if you re interested in a role in the 6th installment of Mission: Impossible. No pressure," wrote McQuarrie, along side his open picture. The director-actor duo had a humorous exchange when McQuarrie said, "Just a few caveats: must enjoy extreme heights, high speeds, motor vehicles of all varieties (especially aircraft), practical stunts, firearms, and sporadic exposition. All good?" The film will hit the US theatres in 2018.
