An audio of Tom Cruise threatening to fire crew members of 'Mission: Impossible 7" due to not obeying COVID-19 regulations was leaked on Wednesday.
Two of the crew members stood less than a metre away from each other at a computer screen on set of Tom's new movie.
'We are not shutting this movie down'' the 58 year-old- actor was heard shouting at the crew members.
'I don't ever want to see it again, ever. and if you don't do it you are fired. If I see you do it again, you're f***ing gone' the producer continued.
Cruise tries his best to enforce tight social-distancing rules during the filming, taking place in Britain.
The latest instalment of the franchise, Mission: Impossible 7, has already been hit with a host of COVID-related delays as cast and crew travel around Europe.
“I’m sorry I am beyond your apologies,” he said. “I have told you and now I want it. And if you don’t do it, you’re out. We are not shutting this f***ing movie down!” The actor ended his statement.
"Mission: Impossible" is one of the biggest franchises in Hollywood, with 2018's "Mission: Impossible-Fallout" earning more than $791 million at the worldwide box office.
