What is the real name of the White Widow in Mission: Impossible – Fallout?

The White Widow’s real name in Mission: Impossible – Fallout is Alanna Mitsopolis.

Alanna is a powerful arms broker who operates under the codename White Widow. Vanessa Kirby plays the character, who becomes involved in Ethan Hunt’s effort to stop the Apostles and locate Solomon Lane. Her public socialite image helps conceal her influence in the international criminal underworld.

Alanna is also significant because she is the daughter of Max, the arms dealer from the first Mission: Impossible film. This family connection links Fallout to the original movie more directly than a simple recurring name. The character’s identity is sometimes confused with the aliases and disguises used by other women in the series, particularly Ilsa Faust and Julia Meade.
