  Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning had its world premiere in Tokyo on May 5, 2025. The film screened at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on May 14, 2025, prior to its scheduled theatrical release on May 23, by Paramount Pictures. It was previously set for release on August 5, 2022, but was delayed to November 4, 2022, July 7, 2023, June 28, 2024, and then to the current date in response to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, taking the original release date of The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants. Due to delays caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes, the budget for the film reportedly increased to at least $400 million, placing it among the most expensive films ever made. Based on typical industry expectations, the film may need to earn around $1 billion worldwide to recoup its production costs. However, in addition to its box office, its performance on Paramount's streaming service, Paramount+, is also expected to be a significant factor in evaluating its overall success.
  
  Internationally, it was released theatrically in Australia, New Zealand, Philippines, India and South Korea on May 17, 2025 before releasing in the United Kingdom on May 21. The film was released in Dolby Cinema, ScreenX, RPX, 4DX, IMAX and other premium formats.
