Sources close to the set reveal that Atwell has struggled to keep up with Cruise’s demanding work schedule and perfectionist attitude, leading to serious tension between the two.
Atwell’s patience has reached its limit and she’s had enough of Cruise’s “too much” ways. This comes as a shock to many fans who were eagerly anticipating the on-screen chemistry between these two Hollywood stars. Will this feud affect the success of the film? Only time will tell.

Tom Cruise has always been known for his intense dedication to his craft, but it seems that his Mission Impossible 7 co-star Hayley Atwell has had enough of his controlling ways. According to sources close to the production, Atwell is reportedly fed up with Cruise’s “intense controlling nature” and has been struggling to work with him on set.
The unlikely duo, who had previously never worked together before, were supposed to be the perfect on-screen pairing. Atwell, a rising star in Hollywood, was excited to work alongside the legendary Cruise, who has been a Hollywood icon for decades.

However, it seems that the two have had a hard time finding common ground. Sources say that Cruise’s demanding nature and strict adherence to his way of doing things have become too much for Atwell to handle. She reportedly feels like she’s being micromanaged and doesn’t have the creative freedom she needs to do her best work.
“She’s a talented actress and she knows what she’s doing, but Tom just won’t let her do her thing,” a source close to the production said. “He’s always trying to control every aspect of the scene, and it’s starting to wear on her.”
Atwell’s frustration reportedly came to a head during a recent shoot in Italy, where she and Cruise were supposed to film a high-octane action sequence. However, things quickly went south when Cruise insisted on doing the stunt himself, even though it was dangerous and could have put both actors at risk.
