Producers Of Tom Cruise Movie Mena Sued Over Fatal Plane Crash
The filmmakers behind new Tom Cruise movie ‘Mena’ are being sued for wrongful death, following a fatal plane crash while the movie was shooting last year. Alan Purwin, an experienced stunt pilot (pictured with Cruise above), was killed when a twin-engine plane crashed in Colombia in September, 2015. Purwin’s widow Kathryn and his sons Kyle and Michael are claiming that Carlos Berl, who was flying the plane and also died in the crash, was not qualified to do so.
