Setting Up “Coronavirus-Free Village”:
In June 2020, Tom Cruise set up a “coronavirus-free village” at an abandoned RAF site in Oxford for the cast and crew of Mission: Impossible 7. The cast and crew got back to work following the industry-wide COVID shutdown and made history by filming in one of the most challenging environments.
