Director Christopher McQuarrie took to Instagram to break the news that the "Superman" star will be joining the American action spy movie with Cruise in the lead.
"Say, @henrycavill. Had a thought. Curious if you're interested in a role in the 6th installment of Mission: Impossible. No pressure," wrote McQuarrie, along side his open picture.
The director-actor duo had a humorous exchange when McQuarrie said, "Just a few caveats: must enjoy extreme heights, high speeds, motor vehicles of all varieties (especially aircraft), practical stunts, firearms, and sporadic exposition. All good?"
"Mission: Impossible 6" will hit the US theatres on July 27, 2018.
