Actor Tom Cruise is reportedly putting his film projects on hold to attend the coronation of King Charles. The British monarch will be coronated in London on May 6. And Cruise will pause filming for the new Mission: Impossible film in order to attend the historic event, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

A source explained, "Tom has been invited to King Charles' coronation, and there is no way he would have ever turned it down. "It is a hugely prestigious event and Tom is a real royalist - plus he is now close with Prince William and Kate. Tom has told film bosses to shut down the production on 'Mission: Impossible' over the coronation weekend to make sure he can attend." Meanwhile, Cruise's decision shocked the production staff working on the new Mission: Impossible film. But the film star is determined to attend the event.
