Another Mission: Impossible 8 popcorn bucket is here, and was announced in a clever way playing off of the self-destructing message of the franchise.
The latest popcorn bucket for the film was revealed by Cinemark, and is a metal popcorn tin that features artwork from all seven of the past Mission: Impossible films. In its announcement video, Cinemark uses AR technology to show the popcorn bucket self-destructing, a la the messages Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt receives in the films.

The synopsis for the film simply reads, “Our lives are the sum of our choices. Tom Cruise is Ethan Hunt in Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.”
The film is directed by Christopher McQuarrie, who co-wrote the script with Erik Jendresen. Cruise and McQuarrie both serve as producers on the film, while David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger, and Chris Brock all serve as executive producers.
