After a small plane that was being used by the crew crashed on the set of Tom Cruise's upcoming film 'Mena,' two people died and a third got seriously injured.

According to a source close to the production, neither the 53-year-old actor nor the film's director Doug Liman was on the plane during the tragic incident, Deadline.com reports.

The insider further said that those died in a crash have been identified as American film pilot Alan David Purwin, and Colombian Carlos Berl.

However, the third passenger in the twin-engine Aerostar, who inflicted several injuries, has reportedly survived.

When the crash occurred, the plane was flying to Enrique Olaya Herrera Airport in Medellin.
