In a statement, the government said the exemption “recognizes the ability of international productions to isolate cast and crew from the general public, and that individual studios and production companies have developed practical solutions for safe working practices, including rolling out new training programs for screen industry workers filming in studios and on location.
“The sector was worth over £3 billion [$3.75 billion] in 2019, and has a clear role to play in our economic recovery following the lockdown.” Ben Roberts, chief executive of the British Film Institute, said: “It’s great news that film and television production have been granted quarantine exemption, one of the key outcomes from the work of the BFI’s Screen Sector Task Force, which in tandem with the U.K.
“Film and television are worth £9.9 billion [$12.4 billion] to the U.K. economy and being able to get production back up and running as quickly as possible is going to help our industry and its 77,000 production workers contribute to the U.K.’s economic recovery.” “Mission: Impossible 7,” produced by Skydance Media for Paramount Pictures, closed down production in late February due to the coronavirus pandemic. The seventh and eighth instalments of the franchise, both written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie, are being shot back-to-back.

adamscrabble 'Essential worker' 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
adamscrabble Excuse me, but F*ck Tom Cruise
adamscrabble Cancel Hollywood. F all you hypocrites.
MouktarAlbert Thank god
adamscrabble Why not skip Mission Impossible 7 and go right to 8?
good for him these blockbuster films are at peril if all movies halt productions we need movies its escapism at its best
That's bullshit
Whoo im excited they are finally filming
Tom Cruise is so driven (and - let's be honest - somewhat odd) that even COVID-19 is like, '.... Nah. Pass.'
Cruises haven't been known to spread the virus, I wouldn't worry
FilmGob Same people complaining in the comments are also rioting and looting shoulder to shoulder.
he was triple tested, come on
Actors are immune, k no it rich whote people.
adamscrabble
TomCruise it’s simple do what a lot of other productions are doing &don’t ask for special consideration becuz it makes you look PRIVILEDGED go 3 weeks in advance quarantine the American team for 14 days. You can afford it, lead by action &follow Global 1 rules 👍🏻
And he is a scientologist
5 Personas Excepcionales Que Predijeron Su Muerte
Just wrong!!!!!!!
Dawood657
Oh yes essential business
treat all the same, otherwise how do UK enforce the condition for other entry to UK.
Scientologists don’t get disease do they?
Well it’s not only him working on the movie if you think it’s just him doing everything
He’s a dick like that
7!?! They can't be that impossible then.
That’s BS why is he special
Aye dead on
No I think he probably stayed in quarantine and got tested and if he’s not got the virus you should be able to work
That’s a lot of 💩💩💩
They need the $$ (GB, not Tom Cruise) and he’s not going to be running around London. There are strict guidelines and only essential cast/crew are exempt and must maintain the bubble. It’s not ideal but it’s not the worst idea.
I thought he lived in the UK so this is news?
That is bs. Tom really?!
2 weeks hydroxychloroquine 👈🏼
whitecismaleprivilege - He is not immune to this disease (that we know of) and he could be a carrier and KILL others with his privilege.
It’s Mission Impossible 7! And it’s Tom Cruise! The virus is even excited.
Star power ⭐️
AlwaystrumpOrg Well that’s it. TC is the antichrist who brings global destruction.
Tom is the only and the best actor alive 💕
They already live in their own little bubbles.
Another reason not to see a stupid Tom Cruise film.
Well...religious exemption and Scientology having nothing to do with science and all...
He’s a Scientologist, what could possibilities wrong. 🙄
Pussy play...bling bling...
I'll skip that
it not like there arent 6 others before this one. you see one you see them all.
fuck that
The upper class remain free.
How much did Scientology pay the Government?
Of course, the rules never apply to celebrities and when they do we get to see them whining and bitching about how tough their lives are.
that scientology working overtime
Ew.
White Privilege and money works all the time😑😑😑 I call bullshit
He’s fine Currently he’s not on Epstein’s flight log
Total BS
News to me that if you are a VIP you are immune to the virus.
One rule for them, another for us.
And Why?!?!?
rockdawg35 the 🐐
Wow. No thank you.
Dumb move...stop putting profits over people 😤
rabidisbest lmfao
ANDIBLAIR1492 Look, we NEED the next Mission Impossible movie!
Because the money is more important than the hoax.
Uh...WTF?
Well that’s stupid
What?
Wait? What! How can he even get there - he is exempt from the flying ban too? This is why the virus is not being contained- there cannot be different rules for different people.
Tom, just retire. Thank you.
So to skip the quarantine say you're involved in filming a movie that no one wants.
White privilege somehow?
Well sure. That seems fair. He’s a celebrity. He can’t possibly be a carrier or sick 🤦🏼♀️🤯 so stupid. If there’s a rule it needs to apply to ALL.
thats because the Virus is a F*cking farce!
Oh is that right.
Oh yeah, this is all about our health
Lol. Hollywood has different rules for themselves than they do for the rest of us. Hypocrites
Brexit was worth it confirmed, everyone!
Tweet is a tad misleading since it's not only Tom Cruise is getting the exception; most actors and crew are getting them. Considering the economic impact of the film/TV industry there, it's not surprising they'd create some exceptions.
🤔🤔
Ohhh now we see said the blind people
But he clearly needs to get back to work since he’s living paycheck to...oh wait. Screw him.
Arrogant.🙈
He always finds a way around things. Money talks
So the rules really don't apply to Hollywood Liberal Elites? Damn, realDonaldTrump got one right.
Virus are afraid of crazy Tom, didn’t you know?
HOW MUCH DID SCIENTOLOGY PAY FOR THAT EXEMPTION AND TO WHOM.
Scientology
Muddafukka, what a POS
Because the rich and famous can’t get sick
Why doesn’t he just take a test?
Dumb
Right, because celebrities are immune to coronavirus. Oh wait. 🙃
Rules for thee, not for me... typical Hollywood bullshit.
Disgraceful
WTF BorisJohnson thoughts piersmorgan ? TomCruise
Risky Business if you ask me............. Sorry
I’ll bet you he’s quarantined himself, has been tested and is taking a private jet with only the pilot and an e-meter. Because when you are that rich you want to keep living
Because really the whole quarantine is joke anyway and only the lemmings fall for it. Wake-up. Time for some real non-violent disobedience..
hypocrite Hollywood Liberal
Hahaha what a joke is all this... while having nations lockdown... Plandemic
Who’s gonna sign the disclaimer for that then! 🙄
Super sexy Scientologists can’t catch COVID.
Confirmation that Tom Cruise’s blood is the ultimate COVID vaccine.
Ridiculous
Starting to look more and more like Norm Macdonald
michaelkammes It's doing my head in that people have such magic thinking around testing. You can't use tests to evade quarantine because tests are ONLY accurate after quarantine.
🙄
I can see TomCruiseInQuarantine trending within the week
This should tell you a lot people. 🙄
This is why the film industry is not ready to come back. What a joke!
I used to work in the performing arts, and I have been devastated by the thoughts of all of the artists now out of work, but this? This exemption makes no sense.
This makes me queasy...I expected more from him... he's rich, he can swallow the expense of those 2 weeks...
michaelkammes Meanwhile every theatre in England is probably going to close down. Govt funding for the arts in this crisis = zero.
Pretty sure he’s immune and even the law of gravity doesn’t apply to this guy.
When you're a celebrity, they let you do it
So long for realDonaldTrump plan to bring back jobs inside America
First to get tested, first to be exempt. It’s not about protecting lives, it’s about protecting the exonomy.
So wrong in many levels🤦🏻♀️
Why shouldn't he. Will be working alone for weeks. Has a personal chef, maid, driver. Don't hate get rich.
If you can survive Mission Impossible 7 🙄 I suppose Carona is nothing.
Another example of WhitePrivilege. 😑
Good 👍 p
Money can you anything!
I support this
Why didn’t he or doesn’t he just go there 14 days earlier than he’s supposed to so he doesn’t have to skip it. Just a thought. You know, cuz the world has a pandemic going on.
Ah, to be rich and white
This is NOT true. I mean it might be for Tom but Bryce Dallas Howard & Chris Pratt has to do a 14 days quarantine before they cant start Jurassic World back!
Yes!!! Can’t wait!! I have to catch up the the Mission Impossible movies but I can’t wait to see the new one!! Just please be careful Tom. I’m a big fan and I don’t want to see you get Covid. Much love from PA. 💕
chubby face tom cruise
💰talks
Nonsense
Then his next mission will be surviving corona if he's not following quarantine rules.
His most dangerous stunt ever.
What? Actors don't carry the virus?
🤬
He.skipped 6weeks.on the last film😁
this is not mission imposible tom cruise!!!! 😂
Why are people pulling up a fuss about this. He doesn’t need to quarantine all he needs is to be tested which I’m sure he will be
That’s bullshit.
Whatever can go wrong....?
