Tom Cruise Transports the Olympic Flag From Paris to Los Angeles in New Stunt
Marking the handover of the Olympics.
Tom Cruise‘s latest mission saw him hand over the Olympics flag from Paris to Los Angeles in yet another death-defying stunt.
The actor and stuntman made a special appearance at both the closing ceremony in Paris and at the handover ceremony in Los Angeles, where the Olympic Games are set to take place in 2028. After jumping off the Stade de France and landing on the stage, he collected the Olympic flag from Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo, hopped on a motorbike and rode through the streets of Paris — with H.E.R., who just performed the US national anthem in Paris, soundtracking his pursuit.
Cruise then enters a massive plane and began to get ready for his skydive with the Red Hot Chili Peppers performing “By the Way” in the background. Upon landing in Los Angeles, he runs his way to the iconic Hollywood sign and transforms it to a new symbol with the Olympic rings.
