Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning
While many think thatEthan Hunt will die in the eighthMission: Impossiblefilm, the first trailer forMission: Impossible - The Final Reckoninghas me really worried that this legacy character will get killed off.
While lots of characters have come and gone throughout theMission: Impossiblemovies, Ethan Hunt’s main cast of friends and IMF coworkers has remained relatively consistent.
However,Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoningmay be setting up a major change to this status quo, and I’m scared.
The first trailer forMission: Impossible - The Final Reckoningis finally here, giving a first look at the highly anticipated eighthMission: Impossiblefilm.
I’ve been eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Ethan Hunt’s saga ever sinceMission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part Onewas released, with it leaving the IMF’s battle against the Entity on a cliffhanger.
Now thatMission: Impossible - The Final Reckoningis finally almost here, however, I’m scared about how this story will wrap up.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning’s Trailer Teases Luther’s Death
After Surviving Seven Other Movies
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoninghas me terrified,as the trailer heavily teases the death of Luther Stickell.
Throughout the trailer, Luther is one of the main focuses, which is a surprising choice for what is seemingly the finalMission: Impossiblefilm.
Luther narrates most of the teaser, and it even gives special focus to a scene that features a conversation between Ethan and Luther.
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is the direct sequel to Dead Reckoning - Part One and is the eighth film in the Mission: Impossible franchise. Said to be the final film, Tom Cruise, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, and more will reprise their roles in Ethan Hunt’s IMF team as they face off against a dangerous foe from their past.
All of this focus seems to be highlighting Luther and Ethan’s relationship, making a potential Luther death hurt even more.
The Mission: Impossible 8 release date is set for 2025, and there’s intense speculation on what’s next for Ethan Hunt after Dead Reckoning Part One.
Throughout the trailer, it is mentioned that Ethan Hunt isn’t willing to sacrifice his friends, meaning that the film is setting the stage for Ethan to finally let one die.
While there are plenty ofMission: Impossible - The Final Reckoningcharacterswho could fulfill this prophecy, I think that Luther’s death seems the most likely by far.
Why Luther Dying In Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning Is So Likely
The Trailer Heavily Teases It
Luther’s death inMission: Impossible - The Final Reckoningis the most obvious choice for the film’s big death, which is why I’m so worried.
Of all of Ethan Hunt’s friends, Luther has been around the longest, with him having appeared ineveryMission: Impossiblefilm so far.
Mission: Impossible 8 has been officially titled Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning, but what does that mean for the Tom Cruise spy franchise?
Since Luther was a bit sidelined inMission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, the teaser for the finalMission: Impossiblemovie wouldn’t be giving him such a heavy focus if it wasn’t for a reason.
I think that it is obvious that the teaser is setting up a tragic fate for Luther, making for a tragic story inMission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning.
