There is an uproar in France. Tom Cruise traveled to Paris to film the final part of “Mission Impossible.” In May 2025, the actor will return as the iconic Ethan Hunt for his eighth spy mission. Cruz was seen speeding on his motorcycle, a stone's throw away from the Arc de Triomphe.
A new movie from the “Mission: Impossible” series.
The attendance of the Olympic Games this summer forced the city to limit or even suspend filming in the French capital from mid-June to mid-September, forcing the crew of the movie “Mission Impossible,” scheduled to be released in May 2025, to rush to a shootout in Paris. .
Tom Cruise's presence on Avenue Carnot, located in the 18th arrondissement, has been immortalized on social media. The photos, provided by a netizen and then the media, show the actor rushing down the street with full firecrackers, without a helmet and preceded by a car with filmmakers, near the Arc de Triomphe and the Champs-Élysées.
Tom Cruise goes crazy in Paris
The Hollywood actor was also seen under the Bir Hakeim Bridge, located between the 15th and 16th circles. Journalist and writer Philippe Lombard wrote on social media: “Tom Cruise just filmed a scene at Jean-Paul Belmondo’s picnic.” It smells like an homage to “Fear of the City.”
This is not the first time Tom Cruise has gone to Paris for a photo shoot. Indeed, in 2018, he came here on his motorcycle to direct several scenes from the sixth part of the “Mission: Impossible” series, titled “Fallout.” At the time, filming in the French capital lasted 36 days, making it the largest photo shoot ever filmed in Paris. We remember the chase scene in the movie Mission Impossible 6, which was filmed between Saxony Avenue, the Eiffel Tower and the Canal Saint-Martin. Tom Cruise also flew over the Eiffel Tower by helicopter and parachuted into the dome of the Grand Palais.
“Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning” sequel, the eighth installment of Ethan Hunt's adventures, was filmed several months ago. The film's premiere, scheduled for June 2024, has been postponed due to a strike by screenwriters and actors in Hollywood.
