Tom Cruise To Perform Epic Stunt At Paris Olympics Closing

Tom Cruise 'set to play a part in the Olympics' in most unique way

Tom Cruise is rumored to perform an 'epic stunt' at the Paris Olympics closing ceremony, as reports suggest. The Olympic flag will be handed over to Los Angeles as the prestigious sporting event concludes on 11 August, with LA set to host the Olympics in four years. According to TMZ, Cruise is expected to rappel down from the Stade de France and land on the stadium field to carry the Olympic flag. The closing ceremony is also said to include a two-minute pre-recorded clip of Cruise's journey from LA to France with the flag. While specific details are scarce, a source hinted at a 'major Hollywood production' for the event.

Cruise was seen in the Paris Olympic crowd alongside other celebrities like Ariana Grande, Margot Robbie, and Greta Gerwig. However, no official confirmation has been made, leaving spectators curious about what surprises the closing ceremony may hold.

The actor is renowned for performing his own stunts, with anecdotes shared by Rob Lowe recalling a time when Cruise inadvertently knocked him out during a boxing match on the set of 'Outsiders'. Lowe humorously described the intense competitiveness between them, highlighting Cruise's physical prowess compared to his own. Despite the friendly sparring, Cruise's strength led to an unexpected knockout for Lowe, who jokingly referred to his own arms as 'pipe cleaners' in contrast to Cruise's muscular build.

As fans eagerly anticipate the Paris Olympics closing ceremony, the possibility of witnessing Tom Cruise's daring stunt adds an element of excitement to the event. With his reputation for pushing boundaries in action-packed performances, Cruise's involvement is sure to captivate audiences worldwide.
