Actor martin landau star of mission impossible dies at 89

I think there may be some confusion here. Martin Landau was an American actor, but he was not a star of the Mission: Impossible franchise. He did, however, have a long and distinguished career in film, television, and theater.

Martin Landau passed away on July 15, 2017, at the age of 89, not in 2023. He was a veteran character actor who appeared in numerous films and TV shows, including "North by Northwest," "The Twilight Zone," "Mission: Impossible," and "Ed Wood," for which he won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 1995.

The star of the Mission: Impossible franchise is actually Tom Cruise, who has played the role of Ethan Hunt in all seven films of the series.
