Reprise her role for Mission Impossible 6?


It'd be awesome to bring her back on the big screen. She's too good to be wasted given the talents she has for that kind of movie/genre.

Agreed. She was awesome in MI, but sadly they think women are expendable

She was actually going to be in MI:5 but she was busy filming Stalker. Hopefully she will be in the 6th one.

I think there should be a spin off MI movie with her, Paula Patton, the chick from the last movie, Thandie Newton and Emmanuelle Beart from 1.

^ This.

The women in the franchise are the strongest and most interesting characters, more so than Cruise who has become a bit of a one-note character (we get it, Tom, you can ride a bike and are a bad***). It's the actors and characters they bring to life that make the story compelling.

I remember in college seeing the first one in '96, then and still a huge fan of Kristin Scott Thomas and wished she had a more prominent role. Shame the second was simply bad material as Thandie Newton is criminally underrated, although finally getting long-deserved praise in "Westworld".

The team in MI: III - Maggie Q, Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Simon Pegg (and even the short loved Keri Russell) were fantastic. Maggie Q, Paula Patton, Simon Pegg, and Jeremy Renner would have been great in "Ghost Protocol". Rebecca Ferguson was excellent in "Rogue Nation", she brought back what was missing since the first installment.

Maggie Q, Rebecca Ferguson, Thandie Newton (and Paula Patton) would be great to see team up.

Agreed. I can't beleivre they didn't keep her in all the following movies.

I liked her in Die Hard 4 & MI 3. Has she done other great action thrillers of that caliber?
