Hollywoodnews.com: Brad Bird’s “Mission: Impossible 4” has an official start date. Does it have a subtitle, as well?

We have been learning bits and pieces about this sequel. We learned that Tom Cruise, indeed, will return as special agent Ethan Hunt, and that he’ll be joined by regular “Impossible” contributor Ving Rhames. This morning, Production Weekly revealed that “M:I 4” will begin shooting on Dec. 1, near a newly-opened production office at the Canadian Motion Picture Park in British Columbia.

But the PW tweet also referred to “M:I 4” as “Aries,” and that’s something we haven’t heard before. I wonder what that refers to? A villain? A secret weapon? A new identity for Cruise, or a younger agent ready to take his place?

IMDB says Bird will work from a script by Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec, based on an idea credited to Cruise and J.J. Abrams.

Right now, “M:I 4” will be in theaters on Dec. 16, 2011.

HollywoodNews.com: Evidence that Paramount’s “Mission: Impossible 4” is moving forward: Simon Pegg is in talks to join the action film being directed by Brad Bird.

Pegg will reprise his role as lab geek Benji Dunn. Bird has been reading actors according to the Hollywood Reporter. The director is known for his animated work, i.e. “The Incredibles.”

Tom Cruise, as reported earlier, is returning as lead protag Ethan Hunt in a script by Andre Nemec, Josh Appelbaum and J.J. Abrams.

Pegg previously starred as Scotty in Abrams’ reboot of “Star Trek” last summer.

The actor can be seen at Comic-con this week where he’ll be tub thumping the Universal comedy “Paul” about two nerds who have an extraterrestrial close encounter while traversing the U.S. to a comic book convention.
