Germany has banned the makers of Tom Cruise's new movie from filming at military sites in the country because the actor is a Scientologist.The German defence ministry said Cruise has "publicly professed to being a member of the Scientology cult".
Scientology masquerades as a religion to make money, Germany said, but leaders of the church reject this.
Cruise's producing partner Paula Wagner said the star's own convictions had no relation to the film's content.
"Personal beliefs have absolutely no bearing on the movie's plot or themes," she said.
