Controversies by Tom’s Film ‘Valkyrie’

Tom Cruise had just started shooting for his film Valkyrie , when controversies started.


Tom’s casting in the film has raised lot of controversies considering he is one of the best known adherents of Scientology.

The controversy took a greater stand when a group of extras were injured on the sets.

The German co- producers were given the permission to the former German general staff headquarters in Berlin,

but the fact that a Scientologist would play the role of Stauffenberg added to their discomfort.

Germany’s government considers Scientology a commercial enterprise that takes advantage of vulnerable society, and critics preserve that one of its adherents should not be playing one of the Nazi-era’s few heroes.

With all these controversies running around it will be difficult for Tom to continue his shooting.
