The adrenaline, ambitions and stars of the first magnitude, known around the world, will gather in one of the fastest growing cities in the world - Dubai in December this year during the opening of the 8th Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF), during which the premiere of the long-awaited blockbuster will take place on December 7 with the participation of Tom Cruise "Mission: Impossible - The Phantom Protocol."
The film, directed by Oscar winner Brad Bird and starring Tom Cruise, Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg, Paula Patton, Michael Nyquist, Russian actor Vladimir Mashkov, Josh Holloway, Anil Kapoor and Leah Seydoux, is the fourth installment of the adventure action movie "Mission: Impossible", which first appeared on the screens in 1996. On the day of the grand opening of the Dubai Film Festival, which will be held at the Madinat Jumeirah resort, The Arabian Resort, the red carpet with the DIFF organizers will be “shared” by Brad Bird, Tom Cruise and other Hollywood stars who took part in the filming of the film. Recall that in Dubai at the beginning of this year, the final shooting of the Hollywood blockbuster took place, which had previously been held in Prague, Moscow, Mumbai and Vancouver.
Traditionally, the Dubai International Film Festival is held under the patronage of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, vice president and prime minister of the UAE, and ruler of Dubai. To date, DIFF has already firmly established a reputation as one of the most prestigious "launching sites" in the world for representatives of Arab, Asian and African cinema. “Dubai and the UAE are a“ mission: impossible ”for the Arab world, so the connection between the film and our country is obvious,” said Abdulhamid Juma, chairman of DIFF. “On behalf of the people of Dubai and the UAE, I would like to thank the Paramount Pictures film company and the producers of the film, which promises to be one of the film sensations of 2011, for the opportunity to tell the world about our country. I am also grateful to Four Star and Gulf Film companies that the premiere of the new blockbuster will take place at our film festival. "
“We look forward to showing the film for the first time in Dubai,” said Rob Moore, vice chairman of Paramount Pictures. “Together with the producers, we are extremely grateful to the Dubai authorities, as well as to the residents of the city who have made their invaluable contribution to the success of the filming. This is Dubai Studio City, Dubai Police Department, Civil Defense Department, Roads and Transport Committee, Dubai Air Wing, Office Dubai Health, Dubai Municipality, Dubai Customs, Emaar Properties and many others. " The world rental of the film "Mission: Impossible - Phantom Protocol" will begin in December this year, immediately after the premiere in Dubai. The 8th Dubai International Film Festival will run from December 7-14, 2011. It is held in conjunction with Dubai Studio City. DIFF's main sponsors are companies such as Dubai Duty Free, Dubai Pearl, Emirates Airline and Madinat Jumeirah. Support is provided by the Dubai Office of Culture and the Arts.
