Overview

After J. J. Abrams signed on to direct Mission: Impossible III, he brought many of his frequent collaborators onto the production. One of which was composer Michael Giacchino, who became attached to write the musical score in early 2005.[3] "[It was] not just me, but [Abrams'] editors, the writers, the production designer," said Giacchino. "It's really a group of friends, which is the greatest thing about working with him. It makes me feel like I'm 10 again, making movies in the backyard with my friends."[4]

The score for Mission: Impossible III was recorded over the course of eight days at the Sony Scoring Stage in Culver City, California.[4] It featured a 112-piece orchestra conducted by Tim Simonec. The scoring session attracted numerous star personalities, including Jennifer Garner and Merrin Dungey (from J. J. Abram's Alias), Sarah Vowell (from The Incredibles), Dermot Mulroney, as well as Tom Cruise, who conducted the orchestra in the "MI Theme".[5]

Rapper Kanye West recorded and release a single for the soundtrack called "Impossible" featuring Twista and Keyshia Cole, which served as the film's theme song in addition to the original Mission: Impossible theme.[6]
