Tom Cruise is set to add a dash of Hollywood glamour to the Olympic Games closing ceremony, sources close to the event are said to have revealed. The 62-year-old action star, famed for his death-defying stunts in the Mission: Impossible franchise, is reportedly filming a pre-recorded segment that will bridge the gap between Paris 2024 and the upcoming Los Angeles Games in 2028. According to American entertainment website TMZ, Cruise's segment will see him rappelling down the Stade de France in Paris before jetting across the Atlantic to Los Angeles, where he'll finish his journey at the iconic Hollywood sign. The segment is expected to form part of the traditional Olympic flag handover, where Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo will pass the Olympic flag to her Los Angeles counterpart, Karen Bass. While official details of the August 11 ceremony remain tightly under wraps, industry insiders have hinted at a spectacular show. One source told Deadline, the respected Hollywood trade publication, to expect "a major Hollywood production". Photographs obtained by TMZ appear to show Cruise filming stunts at the Hollywood sign earlier this year, lending credence to the reports. The images have since begun circulating on social media, fuelling excitement among fans and Olympic enthusiasts alike.
