As “Wonder Woman” continues to slay at the box office, the director of “Mission: Impossible 6” is shining a spotlight on his own wonder women. Christopher McQuarrie tweeted a photo of the film’s female stars together on location. From left to right, the pic shows Vanessa Kirby, Angela Bassett, Rebecca Ferguson, and Michelle Monaghan.

Starring Tom Cruise as IMF (Impossible Mission Force) special agent Ethan Hunt, is the follow-up to McQuarrie’s hugely successful 2015 installment, “Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation.” Ferguson is reprising her role from that film as butt-kicking rogue agent Ilsa Faust (though McQuarrie is keeping his lips sealed about her allegiances; when asked by a fan on Twitter, “Will Ilsa join the IMF?” The writer-director replied, “Only if she wants to.”) Monaghan will return as Ethan’s wife, Julia Meade, a major character in 2006’s “Mission: Impossible III” who reappeared briefly in the fourth film, 2011’s “Ghost Protocol.” Bassett will reportedly play the director of the CIA. Kirby has a lead role, but details are unknown. Also unknown is the role of one female cast member missing from the photo, “Sherlock” actress Sian Brooke.

Plot details are still largely under wraps for “Mission: Impossible 6,” beyond the fact that it features a stunt* sequence that took Cruise a year of training. The movie, which also stars Henry Cavill along with recurring cast members Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Alec Baldwin and Sean Harris, hits theaters in July 2018.
