Olympic Games: Hollywood Show by Tom Cruise at the Closing Ceremony – He Entered… Flying and Left on a Motorcycle

In a style reminiscent of Mission Impossible and Top Gun, the ageless star added his unique flair to the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games

Newsroom August 12 07:33

Tom Cruise participated spectacularly in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

The Hollywood star symbolically “passed the baton” for the 2028 Olympic Games to the next host city, Los Angeles, offering the audience a one-of-a-kind show.

At the end of the Olympic Games closing ceremony, following the performance by H.E.R., the Golden Globe-winning actor appeared in the stadium, descending from the top before reaching his first destination, the field at the Stade de France.

Carrying the official Olympic flag on his back, he “stole” it to deliver it to Los Angeles.

In a two-minute, pre-recorded clip, Tom Cruise was then seen riding his motorcycle toward an airplane, which he then boarded to fly to his next destination, transporting the Olympic flag from France to Los Angeles.

Finally, the actor jumped from the plane and landed on the Hollywood sign.
