Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt is on the run again as Paramount released on Monday the first trailer for "Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation," the fifth Mission: Impossible film that will hit theaters on July 31.

The teaser for "Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation" lasted just a little over a minute, revealing Cruise's reunion with Jeremy Renner, who plays William Brandt, and Simon Pegg, who plays Benji.

Hunt, Brandt, and Benji have to join forces once again to take down the Syndicate, a crime organization that has been described as an "anti-IMF."

Things are not looking good for Hunt, the master spy, who has outdone his exploits in "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol," where he had to scale the tremendous height of Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

But Hunt manages to do the impossible by hanging onto the side of a plane as it takes off in one of the scenes in the movie.

The fifth installment of the iconic covert spy franchise bears the title Rogue Nation, a moniker that shares a key word with Disney's new Star Wars spinoff, Rogue One.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount registered and cleared the title with the Motion Picture Association of America in January or before Disney chairman Robert Iger revealed the title for their new Star Wars film last March 12.

Citing sources, The Hollywood Reporter claimed Paramount can still fight to block Disney, in cooperation with Lucasfilm, to block using the title "Rogue One" for the new Star Wars movie set for release on Dec. 16 next year.

To avoid complications, the two studios reportedly worked out a deal wherein Disney promised to refrain from referring to Rogue One all throughout the summer.

This will have to be applied in any of its promotional materials aimed at the general consumer with the exception of a Star Wars fan event that will happen next month.

Christopher McQuarrie is the director of "Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation."
