“Mission: Impossible III” to prevent a college prankster from flying “insulting” airplane banners aimed at Tom Cruise and his controversial religion.Documents passed down from a reportedly former top Scientology executive to the Daily Mail include a letter from the church’s “Watchdog Committee” from its “Office of Special Affairs,” ordering someone named “Linda” and the church’s “Director/Commanding Officer in the Office of Special Affairs, International Division” to “find out everything you can about them and let me know at once.”The documents, published Thursday, claim that Stephen “Josh” Schofield, a then-21-year-old University of Central Florida student, raised about $3,500 on the online forum offtopic.com to “sabotage” the movie’s May 4, 2006, premiere at Grauman’s (now TCL) Chinese Theatre.Schofield had hired two airplanes to fly over the theater with banners reading: “The baby belongs to Xenu” — referring to Cruise and his then-partner Katie Holmes’ newborn daughter Suri — and “Hail Xenu (Heart) OT [Off Topic].”Xenu refers to the “galactic overlord” in Scientology’s mythology. Scientology’s chief spokesperson Karin Pouw told the Daily Mail that she had no knowledge of the incident and could not locate any documents.

A&E show, “Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath,” died on Sunday. He was 69.Mike’s wife, Christie Collbran, shared a post on Instagram over the weekend to share the news.

“If You Would Have Told Me” (which is now out), the actor, 60, detailed a near miss he had with the controversial Church of Scientology in the 1980s. It all started when his former acting teacher’s assistant slipped him some Scientology books. “I’m walking to my car and Mia runs out and hands me my workbooks,” Stamos wrote in his book.

filed a lawsuit Wednesday which reveals extraordinary allegations of a harassment campaign against her and other “survivors.”Remini, 53, who named Cruise’s BFF, Scientology leader David Miscavige, as a defendant in the suit, has former church leaders backing her—and they tell The Post they’re ready to tell their truth about its “regime of abuse.”Remini, who has labeled Hollywood icon Cruise as “essentially second in command” in the church, alleged that she was held at a Scientology facility for 4 months and “psychologically punished” after asking where Miscavige’s wife, Shelly Miscavige, was at Cruise’s 2006 Italian wedding to his ex-wife Katie Holmes.One highly-placed source told The Post: “I think that Leah will call Tom to be a witness. She claims that she was abused after his wedding, so why wouldn’t she call him? He’s a part of this.”The Post has reached out to Cruise for comment.The church grew out of the writings of British science fiction author, L.

In a statement released by the Church of Scientology on Thursday, the organization called the suit “ludicrous” and claimed that the allegations were “pure lunacy.”“This lawsuit is ludicrous and the allegations pure lunacy,” the statement read. “Remini spreads hate and falsehoods for a decade and is now offended when people exercise their right to free speech, exposing her for what she is—an anti-free speech bigot.”The message continued: “Remini’s complaints are like an anti-Semite complaining about the Jewish Anti-Defamation League for exposing the anti-Semite’s bigotry and propaganda.”“Remini’s obsession with attacking her former religion, by spreading falsehoods and hate speech, has generated threats of and actual violence against the Church and its members as evidenced by multiple criminal convictions of individuals poisoned by Remini’s propaganda.”In the statement, the Church also claimed that Remini had “antisocial traits” and called her a “horrible person,” adding that the star had “profited handsomely from her fabrications.” “If Remini can no longer get a job, she has nobody to blame but herself,” they wrote.

The Blast, Remini claims the church and Miscavige have “undertaken a campaign to ruin and destroy” her life.The docs allege that the “King of Queens” star has been “stalked, surveilled, harassed, threatened, intimidated, and, moreover, has been the victim of intentional malicious and fraudulent rumors via hundreds of Scientology-controlled and -coordinated social media accounts that exist solely to intimidate and spread misinformation” for the last decade.She also claims that the church has “harassed, threatened, intimidated and embarrassed” Remini’s family, friends and colleagues, resulting in a loss of relationships, contracts and opportunities. Remini claims the church is barring her from “exercising her First Amendment right and moral duty to speak out about Scientology’s conduct.”The lawsuit, then, seeks to “recover compensatory and punitive damages for the enormous economic and psychological harm” she has endured at the hands of the church.This is a developing story.

He’s a longtime member of the church, and all three of his accusers were also members at the time of the alleged assaults. At a pretrial hearing last week, Judge Charlaine Olmedo reportedly said about the proceedings, “This is not going to become a trial on Scientology.”However, with Masterson and the alleged victims all having ties to the church, it’s impossible to avoid.
