Super-spy Ethan Hunt has retired from active duty to trains new IMF agents.
But he is called back into action to confront the toughest villain he's
ever faced - Owen Davian, an international weapons and information provider
with no remorse and no conscience. Hunt assembles his team: his old friend
Luther Strickell, transportation expert Declan, and background operative
Zhen. They are to rescue one of his very own trainees, Lindsey who was
kidnapped while on a surveillance detail of Davian. It soon becomes evident
that Davian is well-protected, well-connected, and downright malicious.
This forces Hunt to extend his journey back into the field in order to
rescue his wife, Julia, and uncover IMF double agents in the process.
While in his engagement party with doctor Julia, the IMF agent, Ethan Hunt,
is invited to a rescue mission of his former protégée. Agent Lindsey Farris
was trained by him but has been kidnapped by the evil dealer, Owen Davian.
Ethan accepts the assignment and rescues Lindsey with his team, but she is
killed by a bomb that has been implanted in her head. Ethan finds that Owen
will be in the Vatican and he joins his group to abduct him. They succeeded
in their mission, but back in USA they are betrayed, Owen is released by
his team and he abducts Julia, bringing her to Shanghai. Owen contacts
Ethan and forces him to steal a powerful weapon in order to save the life
of Julia.
The superior IMF agent Ethan Hunt is back. While contemplating living a
quiet life with his wife-to-be, Julia, IMF has called him in to rescue his
former student, Lindsey Farris, from the powerful arms dealer, Owen Davian.
But Farris was killed in this mission. After Marrying Julia, Ethan and his
team of IMF agents head toward Vatican City to capture Davian and
interrogate him about the most powerful nuclear device ever created, the
Rabbit's Foot. After Davian escapes, he somehow captured Julia, now Hunt
must travel to Shanghai to recover the Rabbit's Foot and save Julia, and as
always Hunt must "expect the impossible".
