Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One was changed by Edgar Wright’s advice.
The seventh film in Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible series is set to premiere soon. In this action spy film, written and directed by franchise veteran Christopher McQuarrie, Ethan Hunt and the IMF team are on a journey to track down a terrifying new weapon that could threaten all of humanity if it falls into the wrong hands.
“Edgar came to one of the later screenings[of the film]and asked a simple question about a certain sound — sort of an audio cue — and I thought I addressed that cue. It was so obvious to me. But it wasn’t obvious to Edgar.” said McQuarrie.
“And when I asked the audience, it wasn’t obvious to them either. No one thought to bring it up until Edgar did. And that changed the whole movie. It changed the entire movie for the better. You just need honesty, clarity and awareness. No one, including Tom (Cruise), can really sit there and objectively watch the film 24 hours a day. Tom and I will just look into each other’s eyes and ask, ‘Do we want to change that? Or do we prefer it?’”
