Tom Cruise furious at having to self isolate for 2 weeks after 14 on Mission: Impossible set test positive for Covid
FURIOUS Tom Cruise is having to self-isolate for two weeks after 14 crew on his new Mission: Impossible film got Covid.
The Hollywood star — who in December told staff they are “f*****g gone” if they break coronavirus rules — spent a day filming with dancers who later tested positive.

The UK shoot has been halted and the entire 60-strong crew is in isolation here following mass testing.
It is the latest in a string of delays for the movie, due out next May.
Sources say the four women dancers were “within a couple of metres” of American Cruise, 58, as they shot a nightclub scene for Mission: Impossible 7 this week.
Ten crew members have also since tested positive and it is understood the actor has had to isolate since Tuesday.
A source said: “Tom is absolutely fuming about what’s happened, especially given his rant to his staff last year.

“It’s going to badly affect filming and they’ll be playing catch-up when they finally come back.
“Fourteen crew members have got Covid — most of them are close aides of Tom’s. The whole shooting crew, about 60 people, have all had to self-isolate for 14 days.”
Filming has been taking place at Longcross Studios in Chertsey, Surrey, over the past few months.
