Mission Impossible: Fallout Quotes

So, if you have seen any of the previous Mission: Impossible movies, you know they have had some pretty cool quotes, right?

Well, this installment isn’t any different! Not only did I list some awesome quotes here for you, but I put them in the order they appeared in the movie trailer!

How cool is that?

1. Solomon Lane, talking to Ethan Hunt:

Solomon- “There cannot be peace without first a great suffering. The greater the suffering, the greater the peace. The end you’ve always feared is coming. It’s coming. And the blood will be on your hands.”

Okay, so you’re probably wondering who Solomon Lane is, right?

Well, he is a former MI6 Agent who turned rogue and is now the Supreme Leader of The Syndicate, a criminal organization. And, of course, you know who Ethan Hunt is, correct? Yeah, the guy that Tom Cruise plays!

"Mission: Impossible – Fallout" . Release Date: 27 July 2018 . The best intentions often come back to haunt you. MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – FALLOUT finds Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his IMF team (Alec Baldwin, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames) along with some familiar allies (Rebecca Ferguson, Michelle Monaghan) in a race against time after a mission gone wrong. Henry Cavill, Angela Bassett, and Vanessa Kirby also join the dynamic cast with filmmaker Chris McQuarrie returning to the helm. . #actor #actors #actress #celebrity #cinema #famous #film #films #hollywood #movie #moviemaze #movies #netflix #star #stars #tv #video #videos #missionimpossible #missionimpossiblefallout #tomcruise #henrycavill #rebeccaferguson #simonpegg #alecbaldwin #angelabassett #vingrhames

2. Erica Sloan, talking to Alan Hunley:

Erica- “Solomon Lane escaped in Paris. This is the CIA’s mission. You use a scaffold. I prefer a hammer.”

Not much is known about the character, Erica Sloan, since she is new, but it seems that she is some type of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Agent.

3. Alan Hunley, talking to Ethan Hunt and referring to August Walker:

Alan- “You go rogue, he’s been authorized to hunt you down and kill you.”

So, Alan Hunley is a former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director and current Impossible Missions Force (IMF) Secretary. And August Walker is a High-Ranking Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Operative who is on a mission to kill Ethan Hunt. Why does he want to kill Hunt? You’ll have to watch the movie to find out, silly!

4. Solomon Lane, in a voiceover in the movie trailer:

“When the clock stops, Ethan Hunt will lose everyone he ever cared about.”

5. Conversation between Alan Hunley and Ethan Hunt:

Alan- “Accept it, Ethan, you’ve lost this one. What’s done is done.”

Ethan- “What’s done is done when we say it’s done.”
