20 to July 14, 2023. "Mission: Impossible 8," previously set for July 2023, will instead open June 28, 2024. The date shift comes as somewhat of a surprise, as the "Mission: Impossible 7" set was noted for being among the first productions to safely resume filming as the virus continued to spread.

It was reported early last year that Cruise, a producer on the flicks, enlisted robots to help him enforce safety protocols on the movie sets, having dropped "huge sums" of money to do so. "Mission: Impossible 7" and "Mission: Impossible 8" have both been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
