Danny Trejo Calls Out Tom Cruise For Reckless Stuntwork

Somebody check Danny Trejo's Thetan levels — he's acting like a very suppressive person lately!

Superstar actor Danny Trejo is in danger of disconnection. Trejo criticized Tom Cruise in a Facebook Live interview as reported by Yahoo! Movies. In the interview, Trejo had some strong words for actors who perform their own stunts, putting the jobs of a film's cast and crew at risk.

"I know that all the big stars hate me to say this, but I don't want to risk 80 people's jobs just to say I got big huevos on The Tonight Show," Trejo responded when asked if he still does many stunts at age. "Because that's what happens. I think a big star just sprained an ankle doing a stunt, and 80 or 180 people are out of a job."

Trejo is referring to Cruise's recent injury, which shut down production on Mission Impossible 6 for three months, presumably while his ankle is audited.

"We got stunt guys to do that stuff," Trejo continued. "If they get hurt, sorry to say, you gotta put a mustache on another Mexican and we can keep going. But if I get hurt, everyone is out of a job."

"I didn't say his name," Trejo said when the interviewer brought up Cruise. "But now he can get on the tonight show and say, 'I got big huevos.'"
