Ethan Hunt is back in Paris! Late on Thursday evening, April 25, 2024, many Parisians shared images of American star Tom Cruise, in the midst of filming in the streets of Paris, and above all in the midst of stunts! The 61-year-old actor continues to perform them himself, and was seen piloting a motorcycle at full speed for the eighth installment of the Mission: Impossible saga.
He was spotted in several locations, including near the Saint-Georges metro station, near the Bir-Hakeim bridge and on Avenue Carnot, a few meters from theArc de Triomphe. The capital will thus appear once again in the saga, after Fallout, which welcomed it in 2017, with a flyover of the Eiffel Tower and a parachute jump over the dome of the Grand Palais, no less! Of course, these areas are closed to the public beforehand, to avoid any danger.
This sequel to last year's Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning is shaping up to be exceptional, but we'll have to wait until May 21, 2025 to see it in cinemas, the release having been postponed after the writers' and actors' strike in Hollywood.
