Five crew members on the Mission: Impossible set have reportedly quit after Tom Cruise had a second furious rant.
It had been claimed on Tuesday the actor, 58, gave staff an X-rated dressing down after he caught them breaking UK Covid rules at Warner Bros. Studios in Leavesden, Hertfordshire.
Now a source has said that after news of the first outburst was made public, there has been 'more anger' at the already 'tense' production, reports The Sun.
The insider said: 'Tension has been building for months and this was the final straw. Since it became public there has been more anger and several staff have walked.
'But Tom just can't take any more after all the lengths they have gone to just to keep filming at all. He's upset others aren't taking it as seriously as him.'
They added it is Tom who feels responsible for the production after putting so much time and money into ensuring precautions are in place so the team can film.
MailOnline has contacted Tom Cruise's representatives for a comment.
It was previously reported that the Hollywood star scolded workers who flouted social distancing rules while filming at Warner Bros. Studios.
Invoking the no-nonsense attitude of his character, Ethan Hunt, the actor is said to have told them 'If I see you doing it again, you're f***ing gone,' according to The Sun.
The paper said the dressing down was recorded on an audio tape, in which he is heard to add: 'And if anyone in this crew does it, that's it — and you too and you too.
'And you, don't you ever f***ing do it again. We are not shutting this f***ing movie down.'
The American actor was reportedly angered after seeing the pair stood less than a metre away from each other

Small man syndrome.
Hail Xenu!
Someone should tell Tommy to go chase himself.
This actor will self-destruct in five seconds.
Has there actually been any proof that he had a mind to steal in the first place?
Tom’s real last name is “Mapother”.
CC
Definitely not related to Pablo then, got it.
Wait, what? . . .
Oh, big time. We went out one afternoon and watched the filming, he was sitting in a van the whole time. One of his staffers came over and told us that he didn’t like being watched, but we didn’t work for him so it didn’t matter to us, we stood and watched until he left.
I agree. Same rules for everybody.
I get where Cruise is coming from wanting to keep the business alive and paychecks flowing. I just think he's aiming his guns in the wrong direction.
HE leaked the original...it got attention .......so he leaked again. Attention whore
They probably got a good laugh out of it at least. The Motion Picture Trade Unions are some of the most powerful in the country, and virtually every major motion picture company hires union only. Cruise couldn't fire them if he wanted and they know it. Heck it would likely be much harder to fire one of them than to fire Cruise himself.
I agree.
Sounds like he is just looking out for the Production of the Movie.
Tom is like OT 7/8
scientologists believe physical sickenss is all in your mind, can be controlled by your mind
why is he worried about covid?
at his level his mind can change reality
why not just do that Tom?
Hard to say. I respect his craft. There is a video of some jerk who used a fake microphone and squirted him in the face with water. He grabbed the guy’s arm and asked, “why would you do that?”
Still doesn’t seem to be someone I would have a beer with.
are all Tom’s scenes employing social distancing?
are they wearing masks during the filming?
i mean, this is serious stuff
covid doesn’t just stop being around and inhaled when the director says “action”
is it really worth making a fictitious little movie ifnsomeone gets covid and dies?
i mean, if it saves just one life to have all the actors wearing masks and staying six feet apart
tom cruise is a very mentally damaged person
Tom might find it helpful to talk to a shrink about his ongoing anger management issues. Maybe get a Rx for Prozac or some other appropriate med that could smooth out the emotional ups and downs.
How can a man who got to bed Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman in their prime be so damn angry?
