Jack Reacher Director to Helm M:I5?

Following his collaboration with Tom Cruise on Jack Reacher, Christopher McQuarrie is now poised to direct Mission: Impossible 5 for Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions.

Deadline reports that M:I5 is a big priority at the studio, especially after the success of Brad Bird's Mission: Impossible 4. After working with Cruise on Valkyrie, writer-director McQuarrie has had at least some involvement in the actor's work, from All You Need is Kill and Ghost Protocol (uncredited) to the now in limbo Top Gun 2. Although the studios will want to hire writers before officially striking a deal, McQuarrie is Cruise and producer J.J. Abrams' top pick to helm M:I5.

Currently, Paramount and Skydace have McQuarrie set to direct Tom Clancy's Without Remorse. Meanwhile, Jack Reacher is scheduled to hit theaters on December 21.
