Tom Cruise, Henry Cavill and Marion Cotillard Reportedly Starring in ‘Broadsword’

Once McQuarrie has finished getting the next ‘Mission’ movie in shape for its May 2025 release, it appears he’s ready to switch things up while still having Cruise star.

The filmmaker has been putting together a new script, set in World War II, with ‘Dead Reckoning’/eighth ‘Mission’ co-writer Erik Jendresen, and according to World of Reel, it’s called ‘Broadsword’.

Following the Cruise news, we have word from regular movie scooper Daniel Richtman that Henry Cavill and Marion Cotillard are in talks to join him.

The new movie is reportedly the story of an S.O.E. (Special Operations Executive, an underground army battling the enemy in Europe and Asia) operation in World War II. It follows a marine captain who crashes in France and becomes the sole survivor. Against all odds, he must complete his mission amidst the chaos of war.

Speaking on one of several mammoth Empire Spoiler Special podcasts for the release of ‘Dead Reckoning’, this is what McQuarrie said about the new movie:

“There’s a movie that Cruise and I are talking about doing next or in some probable next, that Erik and I developed together –– what has been referred to on the internet as ‘The Gnarly Movie’. It’s that movie that they're all asking for, and that we want to do.”

It’s anyone’s guess at this point, though Production Weekly, ‘Broadsword’ will shoot next year [eyeis a summer 2025 production start]. Cruise has been in talks with ‘Birdman’ Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu to star in his next movie [may film during the first half of next year], so it’s possible that will happen next, followed by ‘Broadsword’.

‘Broadsword’ will be produced and distributed by Warner Bros. under its recent deal with Cruise, so naturally the studio will want to move on this as soon as possible. .

And let’s not forget that the next ‘Mission’ movie isn’t too far away after all –– it’ll hit theaters on May 23rd next year.

Yep, MI8 is a must see. I took F4 off of my maybe list. I don’t care about gender BS or a less callous Johnny Storm.
