He's negotiating to be the villain
After bringing his particular intensity to a variety of movies, Sean Harris has been hired for several high-profile projects in recent years, including Prometheus and this year’s Deliver Us From Evil. Christopher McQuarrie clearly thinks he can bring the right sort of bad guy to life facing off against Tom Cruise, recruiting the actor for Mission: Impossible 5 .
While Deadline’s story on his casting has him negotiating and cautions that it’s not a done deal, McQuarrie appears much more bullish, welcoming Harris to the film in a Tweet this weekend.
Welcome, Sean Harris #MI5Diary
— ChristopherMcQuarrie (@chrismcquarrie) September 6, 2014 The fifth Mission statement is already shooting, kicking off work in Vienna recently. Cruise is naturally back as Ethan Hunt, joined once more by Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg, with Ving Rhames and Paula Patton rumoured as returning (Rhames is surely a shoo-in – he’s the franchise’s supporting lucky charm). Rebecca Ferguson, Asim Ahmad, Rupert Wickham and Alec Baldwin are also all aboard for a film that is keeping its plot details locked in a laser-guarded vault for now.
Harris should prove to be a great nemesis for Cruise, bringing a different type of energy to the film. He’ll next be on our screens in ’71, due October 10, with Susanne Bier’s long-delayed Serena set for October 24. He’ll also be in the new Macbeth and crime drama Trespass Against Us, which are both awaiting release dates.
