Unvaccinated Tom Cruise had COVID months after chiding ‘Mission: Impossible’ crew, report says

A new report raises questions about Tom Cruise’s presentation of himself as the safety-conscious star of “Mission: Impossible 7,” who was so vehement about protecting the production from COVID-19 that he notoriously yelled expletives at crew members who purportedly violated COVID safety protocols.

Indeed, the investigative report by the Hollywood Reporter said it is believed that Cruise didn’t get the COVID-19 vaccine, at least as of June 2021. That means he remained unvaccinated after an audio recording of his infamous dressing down of crew members was leaked to the media in December 2020.

The report by veteran journalist Kim Masters also said that Cruise and director Christopher McQuarrie contracted COVID-19 in an outbreak in June 2021, with the outbreak forcing production of “Mission: Impossible” to shut down for the seventh time.
