The Hollywood blockbuster "Mission: Impossible 3" premiered on Sunday at the 798 Factory, in the famous Dashanzi art district in Beijing. An unnamed Chinese band performed the jazz-styled theme music of "Mission: Impossible 3" at the premiere.
Composed by an Argentine music producer, the theme music of "Mission: Impossible" series is well known in Hollywood. The new film "Mission: Impossible 3" invited the popular music producer Kanye West to recreate its incidental music. The winner of six Grammy Awards, Kanye West, was praised by Time as the smartest music producer.
Scheduled to hit cinemas July 20, "Mission: Impossible 3" is the second blockbuster this summer vocation in China. Weng Li from China Film Group Corporation said, "This film has a large number of fans in China. The box office intake of 'Mission: Impossible 1 in 1996 was nearly 50 million RMB."
"Mission: Impossible 3" stars Tom Cruise, and its climax is shot in China. Some film critics have predicted its box office takings could reach 100 million RMB or more. However, it has to compete with the Chinese film "Dragon Tiger Gate" to win more moviegoers.
