5 crew members quit 'MI7' after Tom unleashes 2nd rant

Five Mission Impossible 7 crew members have reportedly quit the film, after lead actor and producer Tom Cruise ranted for the next time on set, after his first dressing-down was leaked online. Earlier this week, an audio tracks clip of Cruise yelling at two crew members for allegedly disobeying Covid-19 protocols on set was leaked.

According to a new report, five crew members quit following the star erupted on set again on Tuesday, as news of his first rant emerged. The tirade -- around two minutes long -- was initially posted by SUNLIGHT, and you can pay attention to it here.

SUNLIGHT quoted a source as saying in the latest set report, "The first outburst was big but things haven't calmed since. Tension has been building for months which was the ultimate straw. Because it became public there's been more anger and several staff has walked. But Tom cannot take any more after all of the lengths they have attended just to keep filming at all. He's upset others aren't taking it as seriously as him. In the end, he's the main one who carries the can." In the two-and-a-half minute tirade, Cruise threatened to fire crew members who don't obey the Covid-19 guidelines on set. The actor is said to have spent personal money on putting together safety precautions, including renting a cruise liner in which crew members can isolate.

"We will be the gold standard," Cruise could be heard yelling in the leaked clip. "They're back there in Hollywood making movies at the moment as a result of us. Because they have confidence in us and what we're doing. I'm on the telephone with every f**king studio during the night, insurance companies, producers and they are looking at us and using us to create their movies. We are creating a large number of jobs, you m***********s. I don't ever want to see it again. Ever!"
