Paris has become the hottest place in the world. During the Olympic Games in France, numerous well-known personalities from the world of show business can be seen, including Tom Cruise.

The Olympic Games attract global celebrities to the arenas. During the American gymnasts' performances, Tom Cruise appeared in the stands. His expressions are causing a sensation on the internet.

Cruise is an actor whose versatility has earned him acclaim from critics and audiences. His roles in movies like "Rain Man" (1988), where he starred alongside Dustin Hoffman, and "Jerry Maguire" (1996) earned him Academy Award nominations. In "Vanilla Sky" (2001) and "The Last Samurai" (2003), he demonstrated his ability to portray deeply complex emotional characters.

However, it was action movies that brought him the most popularity. The "Mission: Impossible" series, in which he plays the role of Ethan Hunt, has become one of the most recognisable film franchises in the world. Cruise is known for performing most of his stunts, adding authenticity and tension to his films.

Let's recall that among the spectators of the gymnasts' performances were singer Lady Gaga and rapper Snoop Dogg. Ariana Grande is also making a splash in Paris.

Hollywood actor loves sports

During this year's Wimbledon, the world's oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament, many great stars appeared. Among them was Tom Cruise, who was caught by cameras during the women's final match.

His colleagues from the film set, Hayley Atwell and Pom Klementieff accompanied him. A short video featuring him was posted on Wimbledon's official Twitter profile, where the organisers responded brilliantly to the actor's presence, referencing the film series.
