An insider told the outlet: “He will not miss out on' and 'would never turn it down”.

“Tom has been invited to King Charles' Coronation and there is no way he would have ever turned it down,” the source said.

“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,” they added.

“It shocked some people on the film, as Tom is so dedicated to his craft and would never ¬normally deviate from his intense production schedules.

“But something as important — and grand — as King Charles's Coronation is something he would not want to miss out on. It is a huge thing for Tom to be invited and he is honoured,” the insider added.
