Others suggested he had simply gained weight, but the age-defying star looked in fine shape on the set of his latest film.

He was in high spirits as he shot the blockbuster action flick at Duxford Aerodrome, Cambs.

Wearing a New York Yankees cap and quilted coat, Tom flashed a gleaming smile.

He was pictured fist-bumping crew members as he strode across the airfield in the crisp sunshine.

“It’s obviously a highly skilled task but as usual he has no plans to cut any corners or bring in a stuntman."

The insider continued: “Filming has only just wrapped on Mission: Impossible 7 but Tom has not given himself a break.

“And trying to film jaw-dropping scenes with an 80-year-old plane is particularly dangerous.”
