X-Men alum Nicholas Hoult almost faced off against Tom Cruise on the big screen this summer. Despit Hoult's absence, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One still ended up with a very intriguing villain who matched wits with Ethan Hunt (Cruise). In fact, part of the reason The Entity’s servant Gabriel stood out in the movie was because of the performance provided by the actor portraying him, Esai Morales.
