Tom Cruise resumes filming “Mission Impossible 6” near Paris shooting site

CAIRO – 24 April: Hollywood star Tom Cruise resumed filming his scenes from “Mission Impossible 6” on a set near the site of Thursday’s shooting on the Champs-Elysées in Paris.

The 54-year-old star, alongside co-star Henry Cavill, 33, was reportedly spotted shooting on a set only a mile away from the site where a terrorist opened fire on the police, leaving one dead and another injured, People reported Monday.

It was not confirmed whether the actors were present during the attack.

Production for the highly-awaited "Mission Impossible 6" was underway in Paris throughout the past week. The film is slated for release in 2018.

The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the shooting, which shook the French capital just ahead of the first round of France’s presidential elections.
