Tom Cruise 'Buys Two Covid Secure Robots' To Patrol Mission Impossible Set

But according to reports, the 58-year-old has now taken it a step further and invested in state-of-the-art technology to keep people in line.

"Tom is so serious about making sure the shoot isn't shut down that he's splashed out on these robots as he can't be everywhere to ensure people are behaving themselves.

"Yes, the rant that came out last month may have been a bit over the top, but he was right, and those who saw the story sympathised with him.

"He gets paid a lot for these films but he also knows that he is lucky to be working and staff on the film from top to bottom rely on this film going ahead.

"You don't have to go far to see how just how much the pandemic has affected jobs."

Adding: "The robots are really sophisticated and rather intimidating. It's like the Terminator only not as violent."

In the clip, he can be heard telling them that if they break Covid rules again, they're 'f***ing gone'.

Cruise can be heard shouting: "If I see you do it again, you're f***ing gone. 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."

"Hearing a rich actor with enormous power address his crew in this way is a sign of weakness and a deeply troubled person."

The former The King of Queens star added that what Cruise said to the workers was a representation of the person she sees him as.

"This is the real Tom. This was the same reaction Tom gave his household staff when they did not have the right ingredients for him to make chocolate chip cookies," she said. "This is the same type of tirade Tom launched into when an assistant had the audacity to serve him a drink in a chipped mug."
