The original composition for the film was Alan Silvestri, who had completed a 23-minute movement before he quit, and he later used the music in the 1996 "Evaporation Secret Order".
Hardcore fans of the TV series "Mission Impossible" are very dissatisfied with the film's description of Jim.
When filming the scene of Ethan sneaking into the CIA headquarters to steal intelligence, Cruise, who was suspended in mid-air, always had his head on the ground. In order to maintain his balance, Cruise had to put a lot of coins in his shoes.
The CIA headquarters hall was filmed in London's County Council building, and the helipad next to Tower Bridge was temporarily erected.
Brian de Palma originally wanted Juliet Binoche to play Claire.
The film is the first to be shown in more than 3,000 theaters across the United States.
Ethan's method of stealing intelligence by hanging from the ceiling originated in 1964's "The Great Thief".
