Wild Tom Cruise Rumor Claims He's Got A Stunt Prepared For The Olympics

As a long-time fan of Tom Cruise and someone who has followed his career since the days of Top Gun, I must say this latest rumor about his involvement in the Paris Olympics closing ceremony has me absolutely thrilled! The man never ceases to amaze us with his daring stunts and unparalleled dedication to his craft.


As a lifelong sports enthusiast and history buff, I am absolutely thrilled about the upcoming midpoint of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Given my extensive knowledge of past Olympic Games and their closing ceremonies, I can confidently say that this year’s event promises to be truly spectacular.

It’s been announced by Deadline that Tom Cruise is preparing an impressive stunt for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics closing ceremony, where he will likely hand over the Olympic flag to the upcoming host city. This city, you may know, is famously known as the home of Hollywood.

How Tom Cruise Will Allegedly Be Part Of The Olympics Closing Ceremony 

It’s not been officially announced by the International Olympic Committee if Tom Cruise will attend the ceremony, but many news outlets are suggesting he might be involved. Deadline and other sources hint at a significant Hollywood production, while TMZ reports that Cruise could make an entrance by rappelling down from Stade de France.

Previously, Paris 2024’s official press release stated that the closing ceremony would occur at the Stade de France, overseen by French filmmaker Thomas Jolly. There are whispers suggesting that Tom Cruise might make an appearance during the event to receive the Olympic flag and then transport it to Los Angeles for the commencement of the 2028 ceremony.

According to footage obtained by TMZ, it appears that Tom Cruise ascended the Hollywood sign and handed over an Olympic-style flag (which seems to be rolled up) to a cyclist. The source suggests these images could be from a filming session destined for the ceremony, featuring this event as part of the awe-inspiring stunt sequence where a skateboarder and volleyball player will pass the flag among themselves while traversing the 2028 host city.

Jerry Bruckheimer asserts that Tom Cruise’s skill in flying planes marks a significant shift among actors pushing boundaries in films, using Brad Pitt and Daisy Ridley as examples.

At the 2024 Paris Olympics, Tom Cruise was among the famous faces in attendance, notably watching the women’s gymnastics qualifiers on Sunday. One might wonder if he had a covert assignment, given that he’s been filming the eighth Mission: Impossible movie since 2022, scheduled for release in May 2025. With his dedication to performing stunts for this project and his expressed intentions to continue doing so even as he grows older, it seems plausible that he was there simply for work-related reasons.

Back in 2004, I had the honor of participating in the Olympic torch relay, carrying it from Los Angeles to Athens, Greece. If the rumors are true, it would be nothing short of thrilling to see Tom Cruise potentially reprising this role on an even grander stage for the 2028 Games. It’s hard not to get excited at the prospect of another spectacular stunt by Cruise and LA preparing to welcome the world once more.

You can watch the Paris 2024 Olympics on NBC or stream them with a Peacock subscription.
