Actor Tom Cruise is set to return to the film Mission: Impossible 6, following reports of a dispute over the deal-making that halted pre-production earlier this year.
The 54-year-old will be sealing the deal with production house, Paramount Pictures, to reprise his role as Ethan Hunt in the action thriller, reports a website.
The pre-production was reportedly halted last month over an alleged dispute between Cruise and the studio for his salary. Previously, the project, which was originally planned to kick off production in November, was delayed because of script issues. Now, the production is expected to begin in January next year.
Christopher McQuarrie will once again come on board to direct the sixth instalement of the film and help with the script.
