Olympics Chief Reveals Tom Cruise’s Two Conditions For Involvement In Paris Closing Ceremony Stunt


The Mission: Impossible actor stole the show at the closing ceremony.

The newspaper quotes Wasserman describing Cruise’s effort in the stunt, which saw him descend from the roof in Paris’s Stade France, before receiving the Olympic flag from Simon Biles and LA mayor Karen Bass, riding off on on a motorbike and eventually to LA, where he transformed the Hollywood sign with the five Olympic rings. Wasserman said that “every step of the way, (Cruise) got more involved and more engaged,” and ultimately did the pre-taped stunt for free. The Olympics closing ceremony offered a mixture of French culture and LA atmosphere, culminating in a performance from Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg on Long Beach.
