Special Desk

Tom Cruise, the lead actor of the upcoming film “Mission: Impossible 7,” reportedly reprimanded crew members on the sets for not adhering to social distancing measures while the shoot was going on.

A UK based newspaper reported, citing an exclusive audiotape from the set. “I don’t ever want to see it again, ever! And if you don’t do it you’re fired, if I see you do it again you’re …. gone. And if anyone in this crew does it — that’s it, and you too and you too,” Cruise was reportedly heard saying in an audiotape.

As different sectors open up after lockdown in different countries covid protocol is being given utmost priority to ensure infection does not spread.

The production house hasn’t confirmed the audiotape as yet. The rant came after two crew members reportedly were spotted by Tom standing within 2 meters of one another while on set for the film reported the newspaper.

“We are the gold standard. They’re back there in Hollywood making movies right now because of us! Because they believe in us and what we’re doing,” Cruise can be heard saying in the audio recording.

Paramount Pictures is producing the film. It is currently being shot at Warner Bros. Studio in Leavesden, Hertfordshire, outside of London, where the recording was allegedly made. Warner Bros., like CNN, is owned by WarnerMedia.

“Mission: Impossible 7” had previously faced delays from the Covid-19 pandemic. In February, a three-week shoot was set to take place in Venice, Italy, but the country had a surge of coronavirus cases, putting the production on hold.
