Light The Fuse - The Official Mission: Impossible Podcast

This week we are so lucky to be chatting with IMF team member Zhen Lei herself Maggie Q! We discuss her history in Hong Kong cinema, learning from Jackie Chan and how Brett Ratner was being courted for “Mission: Impossible III” before J.J. Abrams accepted the gig. We also get great stories about costume designer Colleen Atwood, her iconic red dress and working with Philip Seymour Hoffman. Also, lots of dog-talk and dog noises!
