It turns out Tom Cruise’s injuries on the set of ‘Mission: Impossible 6’ were worse than was originally reported! The movie star has broken two bones and the film’s shoot will be delayed by months!
Because Tom is the film’s leading man and the entire story revolves around him, there’s little that can be filmed without him present. The delay could mean that Mission: Impossible 6 will be bowing on Christmas 2018 rather than the prior summer. Footage of the accident has been released showing the beloved leading man attempt to make the jump between rooftops, only to tumble into the building’s outer wall, which was padded. But the collision was clearly hard enough to break bones. After his failed jump, Tom limps around and clings to his ankle in apparent discomfort.
“Tom is a little beat up, but he is showing a brave face and not showing lingering effects from his stunt mishap,” an insider close to production previously told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “And this in no way is going to stop him from doing more stunts of his own in the future. He prides himself that he still can do it and refuses to quit doing his own stunts. It was just a bad day at work and he looks forward to moving forward — incident-free — from this point on.” It’s going to take more than a broken ankle to slow him down!
