Tom Cruise says the production on the new “Mission: Impossible” is releasing some of their own cash to ensure the COVID-19 epidemic can continue.
Production on the seventh installment in the popular spy franchise was due to launch in Italy in February, when everything was shut down due to the epidemic. Luckily for fans of “Mission: Impossible”, Simon Pegg, who played Benji Dunn in the films, announced to Variety in July that he was set to return to work in September. Now it looks like he is really getting thanks for the generous cash coming from the cruise.
According to Forbes, Cruise has made ,000 700,000 out of his own money to help Norway’s Hertigreton production company Truun or Truth Charter Bay cruise ship, which will keep both the cast and crew of “Mission: Impossible 7” during the film’s shooting. The hope is to create a bubble that will allow everyone to function without the risk of widespread spread.

Cruise ships include a new 530-passenger MS Fridge of F. Nansen as well as a 490-passenger MS. Is Worstralan, which is expected to be high enough to provide a reasonable convenience to everyone working on the film.
Neither Cruz nor Hertigreten’s representatives responded immediately to Fox News’ request for comment.
It was revealed in July that the production behind the cruise and the upcoming movie was given the green light to bypass Norway’s coronavirus quarantine restrictions, in which each person would be kept separate for 10 days. Abid Raja, the country’s culture and equality minister, confirmed the news in a tweet, as well as a telephone call between himself and the actor, who was discussing returning in the fall.

“Under this strict Coro regime, MI Nor with Tom Cruise will be allowed to film in Norway,” Raja tweeted, adding that the cost of the film would not be borne by the country.

The Daily Mail reports that everyone was tested twice for COVID-19 within 48 hours of arriving in the country for work. As a result, the movie, which once stopped production due to an ongoing epidemic, is on track for its planned release in November 2021.
