According to the head of the department, the Norwegian authorities are trying to keep the environment in the archipelago practically untouched, so movement on its territory is carried out in such a way as not to cause unnecessary inconvenience to people and animals.
The premiere of the project with Cruise in the title role should take place in 2024. However, the Norwegian Ministry of Culture has now refused subsidies for filming in the country due to concerns about disturbing the landscape of Svalbard.
