AceShowbiz - Esai Morales has replaced Nicholas Hoult as the villain in the new "Mission: Impossible" blockbuster.
Hoult was forced to pull out of the Tom Cruise film, directed by Christopher McQuarrie when the coronavirus shutdown upset the movie's schedule, clashing with another project the Brit had committed to, according to Deadline.
The project was just about to go before cameras when the industry was put on hold in March 2020 and now "Mission; Impossible 7" 's July, 2021 release date has been moved to November next year.
Ving Rhames, Henry Czerny, Simon Pegg, Rebecca Ferguson, and Vanessa Kirby are all returning for "Mission: Impossible 7" while Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, and Shea Whigham have joined the cast alongside Morales.
