Tom Cruise’s publicity team has forbidden news outlets from asking questions about his personal life and Scientology during his worldwide promotional tour for “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation,” an individual with knowledge of the tour told TheWrap.

Cruise’s camp enforced a strict “no personal questions” caveat for access to the star, the individual said.

The ban included any mention of HBO’s explosive Scientology documentary “Going Clear,” as well as tabloid reports that Cruise was dating his assistant.

Cruise’s whirlwind media blitz has included photos calls and red-carpet premieres in Vienna and New York City, as well as a guest appearance on Jon Stewart’s “The Daily Show” and a crowd-pleasing lip-syncing turn on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.”
