Tom Cruise wants to stay in Venice to shoot Mission Impossible 7. Production of the Hollywood star's latest film has been halted due to the health emergency caused by the Coronavirus pandemic.
Paramount Pictures had scheduled three weeks of filming in the lagoon city but the lockdown prevented the film from being made. Although Italy has not yet definitively overcome the Coronavirus emergency and the whole country is grappling with Phase 2 of the pandemic, Cruise has nevertheless decided to keep the film making in Venice.
Tom Cruise protagonist of Mission Impossible 7
The actor has made it known that he wants to stay in Venice to carry out the planned shootings. In fact, last February the troupe arrived in the lagoon but the production was forced to stop due to the quarantine. By keeping the production in the lagoon, the actor wants to bring, in an effective and concrete way, a bit of positivity and movement to the splendid Venice, the city of international tourism heavily penalized by the global pandemic. Tom Cruise has always been linked to the beautiful country and his decision confirms it. It should also be remembered that in 2006 he chose Italy for his wedding: at the Odescalchi Castle in Bracciano the actor married Katie Holmes.
Filming in Venice
According to rumors circulating these days, it seems that Tom Cruise is determined to shoot his new film right in the lagoon. This, despite the fact that the production has proposed several alternative locations for filming. It is truly a gesture of affection and generosity by the well-known actor for one of the most loved cities in the world. Therefore, as soon as it will be possible to travel again without the strict impositions of the lockdown, the technicians and the whole cast will restart the production of Mission Impossible 7.
The film is part of the successful series born in the USA and which sees Cruise in the role of Ethan Hunt, special agent of the IMF (Impossible Mission Force). The IMF is a secret section of the CIA (Central Intelligenc Agency) entrusted with dangerous international espionage missions. The film is expected in theaters in July next year.
