Christopher McQuarrie explained in a recent interview that they were looking to use the technology for a 'sequence at the beginning of the movie that was going to take place in 1989.'
But it wasn’t the actual technology that ultimately led to McQuarrie deciding against using it in the latest installment in the“One of the big things about [the de-aging] I was looking at while researching, I kept saying, ‘Boy, this de-aging is really good’ or ‘This de-aging is not so good,” the director recalled. “Never did I find myself actually following the story.”
Once they actually tested out the de-aging technology on Cruise, McQuarrie said that he was so engrossed with how the actor looked that he missed out on his performance. He added, “I was so distracted by how an actor that I had known for however long was now suddenly this young person.” Although fans can’t expect to see a younger version of Cruise in the movie, the director noted that he is looking into ways to possibly incorporate it into future projects.
“In researching that [technology], I cracked the code – I think – on how best to approach it,” McQuarrie said. “By then, we had kind of moved away from it. We may still play with it. We never say never.”
