Tom Cruise has been recorded yelling obscenities at crew members in his current movie Mission: Impossible 7 after apparent violations of social distancing guidelines on set.
The Sun released an audio recording of Cruise yelling and cursing the project’s film crew, of which he is one of the producers, threatening instant dismissal of anyone who violates the distancing rules.
In the recording, Cruise can be heard yelling, “I never want to see him again! And if you don’t, you’re fired, if I see you do it again, you’re gone. And if someone on this team does it, that’s it, and so do you and so do you … don’t ever do it again.
“That’s it! No apologies. You can tell people who are losing their damn homes because our industry is closed. It’s not going to serve them food or pay for their college education.”
Cruise appeared to be reacting after the crew members were seen standing too close to each other by a computer screen at Leavesden Studios in the UK.
Like all major Hollywood productions, Mission: Impossible 7 has been hampered by delays and potentially catastrophic shutdowns due to the pandemic. Production in Italy was halted in February after authorities banned public gatherings in response to the first wave of coronavirus, but permission was given in July for filming to resume in the UK after Cruise personally appealed to the secretary. of culture Oliver Dowden. In October, filming in Italy was suspended again after reports of a positive Covid test on set.
Behind Cruise’s outburst is his sense that the production functions as a blueprint for how Hollywood can continue to function in pandemic conditions, with the actor saying, “I’m on the phone with all the damn studios at night, the insurance companies. , the producers and they look at us and use us to make their movies. We are creating thousands of jobs, motherfuckers … The movies are thanks to us. If we close, it will cost people fucking jobs, their home , his family. That is what is happening. “
The film’s producer has been contacted for comment.
