Laurence Fishburne is rounding out the cast of Paramount's Mission: Impossible 3, set to start shooting in Italy next month.
Fishburne joins Tom Cruise, Keri Russell, Ving Rhames, Michelle Monaghan, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Philip Seymour Hoffman in the film in which he will play the role of mentor to Ethan Hunt (Cruise).
Next up for Fishburne is Lions Gate's spelling bee flick, "Akeelah and the Bee."
