"The injury is worse than was at first feared. Tom did serious damage and will need months to recover. He is the film's biggest star and everything revolves around him. The movie's bosses had no choice other than to postpone the filming," The Sun's sources revealed.
Despite a delay in filming, fans could expect the film to release as per schedule. Mission: Impossible 6 is slated to release on July 27, 2018.
