Mission: Impossible (franchise)

Mission: Impossible is a multimedia franchise created by Bruce Geller, focusing on a fictional espionage agency. In the films, Ethan Hunt is the main protagonist, and is portrayed by Tom Cruise.
The franchise began as a television series in the 1960s, but was adapted into a series of films in 1996. In addition to these, it has spawned several other pieces of media, including comics and video games.
== Crossovers ==
Mission: Impossible was one of the multiple franchises to be represented alongside the Doctor Who universe in the mass-crossover toys-to-life video game, LEGO Dimensions. The Mission: Impossible content was added to the game via its second wave of figurines and adventure packs on 27 September 2016, joining Doctor Who and the other existing franchise elements that were built into the game upon its original release.
This inclusion allowed players to control Ethan Hunt and Franz Krieger and have them play through the A Dalektable Adventure and Dalek Extermination of Earth levels, and explore the Who-themed adventure world, as well as operate K9 and interact with the Doctor's TARDIS.
In turn, this allowed the player to play as the Doctor or the Cyberman during the Mission: Impossible story and explore the Mission: Impossible adventure world, as well as using the related vehicles and objects - the IMF Speedster and IMF Scrambler - in any world.
Ethan Hunt himself has a unique voice clip that plays when he pilots the TARDIS in gameplay: "Can we get a cappuccino machine in here?”.
In promotional material related to the game, the two franchises appeared together in the trailer New Adventures Await!. Ethan Hunt appears partway through the trailer, lowering down in Diagon Alley to give Scooby-Doo a belly rub, although he doesn't appear in the Land of Ooo near the end of the trailer, despite most characters featured elsewhere in the trailer appearing.
Ethan Hunt is voiced in the game via archival audio of Tom Cruise.
