BREAKING NEWS – Los Angeles, California – George Clooney is standing with Tom Cruise after audio leaked of the “Mission: Impossible” star admonishing crew members working on the set of the latest iteration for reportedly not adhering to coronavirus guidelines related to social distancing.
According to The Sun, the 58-year-old actor saw two crew members standing within about 6.5 feet from one another and launched into an expletive-filled tirade about the importance of safety precautions. Variety, citing sources, also confirmed Cruise voiced his frustrations after seeing the crew members not adhering to guidelines.
In audio obtained by The Sun, Cruise called the set of the film the “gold standard” of shooting amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“We are creating thousands of jobs you motherf–kers,” he shouted. “I don’t ever want to see it again. Ever. And if you don’t do it, you’re fired, and I see you do it again, you’re f–king gone.”
“I wouldn’t have done it that big. I wouldn’t have, you know, pulled people out,” added Clooney. “You’re in a position of power and it’s tricky, right? You do have a responsibility for everybody else and he’s absolutely right about that. However, people who worked for him and with him, new exactly what they were getting into when they signed on, because it’s a well established fact in Hollywood that everyone who embraced scientology is nuts.”
