Tom Cruise hired a cruise ship for £ 500,000 to avoid delays in filming Mission: Impossible.
It's no secret that Tom Cruise (58, "Barry Seal: Only In America") gives everything for his films. Not only is his own physical activity in stunts impressive, but also his commitment in the run-up to the productions. The latest example: For the shooting of the new "Mission: Impossible" film, which had stalled due to the corona pandemic, Cruise now rented a complete cruise ship for the entire crew, according to the British "The Sun", in order to prevent further delays in the shooting.
Ship as a hotel
The 58-year-old action star dug deep into his private pocket – the Hurtigruten Line ship, which is currently off the Norwegian coast, is said to have rented 500,000 pounds (around 562,000 euros). The cruiser is to serve as safe accommodation for the cast and production staff during filming in Norway and to prevent further production delays, as an insider "The Sun" reportedly revealed: "They are afraid of further delays. Tom is determined not to allow any more surprises The studio believes everyone is safe and filming can stop. " However, Cruise itself should not spend the night on board.
The filming in Venice already had its first interruptions in February, but because of the lockdown, it was completely on hold for the time being. In addition, a fire accident on the set in Great Britain caused further delays in mid-August. For the shoot in Norway scheduled for September, Tom Cruise doesn't want to leave anything to chance. The seventh part of the "Mission: Impossible" series is due to hit theaters on November 19, 2021.
