`Mission: Impossible IV` to get a new title

Los Angeles: Hit franchise `Mission Impossible` is reportedly set for major revamping and likely to get a new title which does not even make reference to the original one.

"It`s possible that the title won`t even include the familiar moniker," a magazine reported quoting sources. Jeremy Renner of `The Hurt Locker` fame is the latest to join the Tom Cruise led star cast. Another buzz suggests that the movie will also include a young female operative. Kristin Kreuk and Paula Patton of `Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire` are in the race for it. Directed by Brad Bird, `Mission: Impossible IV` will see Tom Cruise reprising his role as Ethan Hunt. Jeremy Renner is tapped to co-star Cruise and set to continue the action film franchise should Hunt not become the focus anymore in the future. Beside starring in it, Cruise will also produce the movie alongside J J Abrams and Paula Wagner. Josh Applebaum and Andre Nemec are writing the script while Paramount Pictures plans to release it in US on December 16. PTI
