After only a few weeks in theaters, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning already ranks among the top 10 highest-grossing films of the year. Box Office Mojo reports that since being released in mid-May, what is being called the final installment in the action series starring Tom Cruise has raked in more than $360 million — and the total is still climbing.
Mission: Impossible is beloved around the world and is remembered in part for its iconic theme song, but that's not the only bit of music from the series that people love. The score that was created for this latest film has proven commercially successful in at least one market where the movie is also widely embraced.
The latest Mission: Impossible score debuts on two music charts in the U.K. this week. The full-length, which is credited to composers Max Aruj and Alfie Godfrey, even manages a top 10 start on the Official Soundtrack Albums chart. The project launches at No. 10 on that tally.
On that list, Mission: Impossible earns the loftiest debut of the frame, beating a new rendition of The Empire Strikes Back soundtrack, as well as several high-profile comebacks.
The same studio effort also appears on the Official Album Downloads chart, which is not specific to any one genre, but instead to the digital format. On that list, Mission: Impossible opens at No. 23. Unlike on the soundtrack tally, the score doesn't earn the top start here. Instead, the composers come in behind new releases from U.K. favorites like When Rivers Meet, Louise Sparks, and Stereolab.
Mission: Impossible is one of several Cruise-related titles with scores currently charting on the Official Soundtrack Albums ranking. The original Top Gun pushes 10 spaces to No. 16, while its follow-up Top Gun: Maverick reenters the ranking at No. 42. Both may experience gains thanks to all the excitement around the movie star's latest blockbuster.
The Top Gun sequel is also present on the Official Compilations chart, where its accompanying album jumps several spots to No. 67 shortly after celebrating 150 weeks on the list.

Jesse Watters' New Nickname For Zohran Mamdani Makes Him Sound Ridiculously Cool
Fox News host Jesse Watters has unveiled a new nickname for New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani — and people can't help but notice it makes him sound really, really cool. Over the past few days, the commentator has referred to the progressive rising star as 'Zohran the Destroyer,' or simply 'the destroyer,' multiple times. In a viral screenshot from Thursday's episode of 'Jesse Watters Primetime,' a chyron reads, 'ZOHRAN THE DESTROYER WRECKS DEM PARTY.' The segment touched on angst from some Democrats over Mamdani threatening the status quo. The democratic socialist beat former New York Gov. and accused sexual harasser Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday in a stunning upset. 'What's Zohran the Destroyer got going for him?' Watters asked in a monologue that trashed Mamdani's policy proposals and mocked his supporters. He also called him a 'smooth-talking assassin.' On 'The Five' on Friday, Watters mused, 'Zohran the Destroyer is about to give Karl Marx a woke makeover, if Democrats can't stop him from becoming the next mayor of New York City.' On social media, people joked about how awesome the moniker made Mamdani sound. They're giving him cool nicknames now — pokey pup (@Whatapityonyou) June 27, 2025 Problem? — Austin MacNamara - Gremloe (@gremloe) June 28, 2025 omw to Join the Praetorian Guard of Zohran the Destroyer — Estrie⚢🔆 (@AdorableEstrie) June 28, 2025 I'm sorry @ZohranKMamdani, but I will only be referring to you by your full name from now on: Zohran The Destroyer. — Deliver The Food (@deliverthefred) June 27, 2025 They try to make him sound scary and just make him sound like a hero."Hither came Zohran, black-haired, bright-eyed, sword in hand, a reaver, a billionaire-slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandaled feet." — Josiah Hawthorne (@JosiahHawthorne) June 27, 2025 Zohran Mamdani Stuns Andrew Cuomo In NYC Mayoral Primary Marjorie Taylor Greene And Tucker Carlson Offer Surprising Praise For Rising Dem Star Democrats Hope They Can Replicate Zohran Mamdani, Just Without The Socialism

Rapper pulls out of music festivals alleging they wanted her to make ‘free Palestine' statements onstage
Musician Azealia Banks said on Wednesday she canceled her performances at two upcoming U.K. festivals because they asked her to make anti-Israel statements on stage. The rapper and singer took to X earlier this week to announce that she was pulling out of the Maiden Voyage Festival in London, as well as the Boomtown Festival in Hampshire. She alleged that event promoters said she needed to push pro-Palestinian slogans during her performances. "So guys, I am cancelling Boomtown and Maiden Voyage, the promoters have been stressing me out for weeks trying to force me to say free Palestine and threatening to cut me from the bill because I won't say free Palestine and I'm not dealing with the threats and I'm not putting on a f------ hijab," she wrote. The "Luxury" singer's lengthy post continued. She alleged that both events threatened to cut her acts if she didn't comply with the requests, and noted that she went ahead and pulled out first because she didn't agree with the demands. "They're both basically trying to extort me - by insinuating that I need to say I support Palestine or they will drop me from the gig BUT I would much rather drop them and not associate with anything that has cheap group think b------- attached to it." Still, Banks wasn't finished. She continued, "If they want to allow some no-name DJs to bully them into desecrating the nature of this music ecosystem and make ME the issue - whilst there being absolutely no ethical consumption under capitalism. Then that's fine." "More thinly veiled racism and overt antisemitism from the f------ gays for Hamas." Banks continued her thread, clarifying that she harbored no ill will towards Gaza or the Palestinian people, but that she was tired of the political statements surrounding it. "And no, I'm not saying f--- actual Palestine. But f--- your dumb a-- slogans and performative b-------. Yall wanna make a stance so bad but stand for absolutely nothing." She then accused people in the media of having outrage over something they know nothing about, adding, "And all of a sudden yall are throwing around words like genocide and Zionist not even knowing the meaning of those words while you drive around in ur teslas and leave comments from your iPhones all built off the backs and the blood of children working in mines from dusk til dawn." "Kiss my a--," she added. On Saturday, Banks followed-up on X, saying, "This Palestine s--- is boring and exhausting. Now I have to mute the word on every platform and go back to ignoring it. I REALLY don't give a f--- anymore lmfao, yall are not getting in my happy music space with that s---." In a statement, Boomtown Festival disputed Banks' claims that promoters tried to get her to say anything, though it confirmed she had been dropped. "Following her post on X in the early hours of this morning, we can confirm that Azealia Banks has withdrawn from the lineup and will no longer be performing at Boomtown Festival. For clarity, Boomtown does not and will never dictate the personal views and beliefs of performers," a spokesperson stated. Maiden Voyage Festival did not immediately reply to Fox News Digital's request for comment, though the festival's Instagram page confirmed that Banks "will no longer be performing" at the event.
