Supposedly 12 people have gotten the COVID, and production is shut down

Are they filming both of these together?  Or just 7 right now?

Chris Mcquarrie has tagged his Instagram #MI7MI8 so I think so

Hmmm.... the Sun has audio of Tom ranting on the MI 7 set in London. It's Christian Bale reloaded. Could pose some problems for this

Not if he's the guy trying to keep hundreds of people employed by advocating strong safety on set.  

 

We don't know the circumstances, but on the surface, I have no problem with this.  This is not ranting at a DP for walking into his frame.  This guy is still the gold standard in the industry -- and for valid reasons.  Cruise is talking about life and death matters, and the employment of the entire crew, the example of what a top-tier film production can prove to the industry and the world in this time of crisis.

I thought it was perfectly fine what he said. He explained everything and why it’s so important they’re doing what they’re doing. Good for him for understanding the gravity of the situation.

Taking safety seriously? Only if world leaders did this. No one is making the crew work during the pandemic. This is only news cause its Tom Cruise .

Honestly, based on this I’d kind of like Tom Cruise to accompany me when I go shopping, nobody is sticking to two meters anymore and it irritates the hell out of me.

 

I’m completely on his side here, all it takes is one slip up and a production shut down costs them potentially millions of dollars.

King shit

[BoxOfficeZ]

Even if it's a "PR leak" he's not wrong. People not taking this seriously literally put their coworkers and their families in danger.

[excel1]

Response is actually really positive. 

[marveldcfox]

Buzz for MI7 increases manifold.

[junkshop36]

100% on Cruise’s side for this. He’s talking about people’s lively hoods here. The production of this movie employs hundreds of people; and not just in NA but in other countries as well. I also got the sense that this isn’t the first time something had to be said about following Covid protocol on set. Cruise just finally had enough and couldn’t take it anymore lol

[HesAPooka]

Media outlets trying to paint Cruise in bad light with their headlines but response to this has been 90% positive from what I can tell.

In busy shops it's impossible to keep 2 metres apart, especially when you are all trying to grab the same things 

[Hatebox]

That's such a good reason to freak out, my cynical mind has already kicked in and makes me wonder if it's some kind of genius publicity stunt.
