Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning has finally confirmed its digital release date.

The eighth (and final?) film in Tom Cruise’s long-running spy series released in cinemas in May, and is still showing in some locations.

However, soon you’ll be able to watch it at home through digital purchasing and rental.

A post on the franchise’s official social media accounts reads: “Around the world, you showed up. Now bring home Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning on Digital 19 August.”

That’s exactly four weeks from today (and actually 18 August in the UK), with pre-orders up now on Prime Video and Apple TV.

When it debuted on the big screen, the film took in $190 million worldwide during its opening weekend, setting a record for the franchise. Combined with Lilo & Stitch, it also set the record for the best Memorial Day open weekend at the box office ever.

“This weekend was one for the history books!” Cruise said. He thanked everyone who worked on the film, at the studios, and at every cinema for their support.

“And most of all, THANK YOU to audiences everywhere,” he added, “for whom we all serve and for whom we all LOVE to entertain. Sincerely, Tom.”

In Digital Spy’s review of the film, we wrote that: “What saves The Final Reckoning from being dragged down by its unwieldy plot is that it never takes itself too seriously. The consequences if Ethan and his IMF team fail are dire, but that doesn’t mean the movie can’t have fun along the way.

“As the series has gone on, it’s become more aware of its inherent silliness and The Final Reckoning might be the pinnacle.”

Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning is still being shown in some cinemas, and will release for digital purchases and rental on 19 August.
