Seeing how Paris provides Ethan with the information he needs to take down the Entity, it's safe to say Gabriel wouldn't have her back on his team. Therefore, if Paris becomes another recurring character in the "Mission: Impossible" movies, it would make the most sense for her to join the good guys. Her role in "Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part Two" could consist of proving she's loyal to Ethan's team, even if some members doubt her allegiance initially. At some point, she could do something that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that she's in this for the long haul, setting up exciting possibilities for anything that comes after "Dead Reckoning Part Two."
For this to happen, Paris would likely need to officially join the Impossible Mission Force, as Grace does at the end of "Dead Reckoning Part One." Paris could do the same, or if she wants to remain a free agent, she could go rogue and meet up with Ethan and his team later when they're trying to eliminate the Entity. With two hackers on the team, Ethan could likely use some more brute force out in the field, and Paris has proven herself to be a worthy opponent.
Paris also fills a void left behind by Ilsa Fault (Rebecca Ferguson), who seemingly dies for good in "Dead Reckoning Part One." It looks like Grace will be Ethan's new love interest, but Paris could become the de facto mercenary on the squad. Plus, it'd be nice to have a woman on the team Ethan doesn't develop a will-they-won't-they relationship with. Pom Klementieff is an incredibly exciting performer, and hopefully, this franchise will continue utilizing her well.
