It has been reported that Tom Cruise will have a significant role in the closing ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games on August 11. He is rumored to be skydiving to the iconic Hollywood Sign during the ceremony as part of the orchestrated handoff to Los Angeles for the 2028 Olympiad. The stunt was reportedly filmed in March in secret.
Tom Cruise has been present at the Paris games, attending events such as the women's gymnastics qualifiers and swimming competitions.
In an interview with Reuters, he expressed his enthusiasm for the games, praising the incredible feats of the athletes and their sense of accomplishment.
The production company Fulwell 73, co-owned by James Corden and known for projects such as Hulu's The Kardashians and Adele's CBS special One Night Only, is responsible for the Los Angeles segment of the ceremony.
The segment will combine pre-recorded and live elements to create a captivating show.
Initially, there were plans for a large party at Will Rogers State Beach for the handoff of the Olympic flag, but this idea was abandoned due to concerns raised by the LAPD about shutting down the Pacific Coast Highway for an extended period and difficulties in obtaining permits from the California Coastal Commission.
