James Cameron‘s post-Avatar plans keep getting bigger. After purchasing the rights to adapt Charles Pellegrino‘s 2015 novel Last Train From Hiroshima, Cameron snapped up the right to the follow-up book Ghosts of Hiroshima. Cameron says he plans to combine both novels for a film he’ll shoot as soon as his Avatar production schedule allows. The Hiroshima project marks Cameron’s first non-Avatar film project since 1997’s Titanic. Cameron still plans to call his forthcoming film Last Train From Hiroshima.
According to Deadline‘s exclusive report, Cameron’s Last Train From Hiroshima film focuses on the actual story of a Japanese man during World War II who survived the atomic blast at Hiroshima, got on a train to Nagasaki, and survived the nuclear explosion in that city. Wow! What are the odds?
Deadline says Pellegrino’s books take inspiration from the voices of bomb survivors and the new science of Forensic archaeology. Pellegrino digs into the events and aftermath of two days in August 1945, when nuclear devices detonated over Japan changed history, scarring the world forever with memories of tragedy, hubris, and cruelty. The books cite eyewitness accounts of those who experienced the explosions, the civilians on the ground, and the American flyboys. History suggests the bombs killed an estimated 150,000 and 246,000 people.
“It’s a subject that I’ve wanted to do a film about, that I’ve been wrestling with how to do it, over the years,” Cameron told Deadline. “I met Tsutomu Yamaguchi, a survivor of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki, just days before he died. He was in the hospital. He was handing the baton of his personal story to us, so I have to do it. I can’t turn away from it.” While visiting Yamaguchi, Cameron and Pellegrino pledged to “pass on his unique and harrowing experience to future generations.”
Cameron takes on immense responsibility by vowing to tell Tsutomu Yamaguchi’s story and honor those whose lives were lost or forever altered by the tragic events. Considering Cameron’s care for his projects, I feel Yamaguchi’s story is in great hands. Regarding when he’ll get the chance to film Last Train From Hiroshima is anyone’s guess, knowing how long it takes to complete chapters of the Avatar series.
Last week, it was reported that Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton is in talks to take the helm of the fourth Marvel Cinematic Universe Spider-Man film now that Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far from Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home director Jon Watts having moved on to other projects. Also last week, the final trailer for Sony’s Marvel-inspired film Venom: The Last Dance dropped online, revealing that the movie features the villainous Knull, “an eldritch god of darkness and the creator of the symbiotes.” Now, The Cosmic Circus has shared the RUMOR that, while Venom: The Last Dance is meant to be the last entry in the Venom franchise, leaving it as a trilogy, that movie might not be the last time we see Tom Hardy play Eddie Brock and his symbiote pal Venom, nor would it be the last time we see Knull, as they could both be showing up in Spider-Man 4!
According to The Cosmic Circus, Marvel Studios and Sony have been at odds on what sort of approach should be taken to Spider-Man 4. Marvel wanted to make a “friendly neighborhood Spider-Man” movie with the hero teaming up with fellow street-level hero Matt Murdock / Daredevil (played by Charlie Cox) to face off with the villain Wilson Fisk / Kingpin (Vincent D’Onofrio) following the events of the upcoming Disney+ series Daredevil: Born Again. While Spidey and DD worked together to bring down Kingpin, they might also encounter enemies like the crime syndicate the Maggia, the super-powered gangster Mister Negative, scientist Spencer Smythe (creator of the Spider-Slayers robots), and/or Scorpion and Prowler, characters who were set up in Spider-Man: Homecoming with the appearance of their alter egos, played by Michael Mando and Donald Glover. On the other hand, Sony has been pushing to make the movie another high stakes multiversal adventure like Spider-Man: No Way Home… and from what The Cosmic Circus has heard, Sony might be the winner in this argument. The street-level Daredevil team-up might be set aside in favor of a multiversal Venom crossover.
Alex Perez of The Cosmic Circus reports, “Recently, I heard that the upcoming Spider-Man film might pit Tom Holland’s Spider-Man and Tom Hardy’s Venom together, with Venom: The Last Dance setting up the interaction. By the end of Venom: The Last Dance, we may see Eddie Brock cross over into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with some sources indicating that the recent reshoots in NYC for Venom: The Last Dance has to do with that, but that remains unconfirmed for now. Not only that, but I’m hearing that the potential villain for this film would be Knull, who is seeking to enshroud the entire multiverse in his darkness following its discovery. It’s important to note that the Venom symbiote is currently in two different universes, the Sony-Verse and the MCU. This link may spark Knull to seek out Venom in 616 and be on a mission to engulf the multiverse in darkness. … Knull has some interesting origins deeply rooted within the Multiverse, so the idea could be plausible. Who knows? Maybe Knull lost his Necrosword in an incursion, and it slipped into 616 while he hid in the middle of two multiverses.“
As Perez mentions, Knull has history (in the comics) with the Necrosword, which was wielded by Gorr the God Butcher in Thor: Love and Thunder. In fact, “In the comics, All-Black the Necrosword was the first symbiote. It was manifested from the shadow of the evil deity Knull and tempered inside the head of a Celestial now known as Knowhere.” Knowhere being a location that was seen in the Guardians of the Galaxy films. The Venom symbiote is also split between the universe the Venom films take place in and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as a piece of the symbiote was left behind when Venom briefly visited the MCU in Spider-Man: No Way Home. That was obviously setting up story possibilities for the future, and it looks like Sony might be following up on it sooner than Marvel Studios expected to.
What do you think of these Spider-Man 4 rumors? Would you rather see a movie where Spider-Man and Daredevil team up to take down Kingpin and other street-level threats, or a movie where Spider-Man and Venom team up to save the multiverse from Knull? Let us know by leaving a comment below.
Things are tough all over when you’re Eddie Brock. Sure, he’s got a powerful symbiote writhing beneath his quirky exterior, but I don’t see Venom doing anything to help pay the bills, do you? Maybe that’s why Eddie pays a visit to UFC CEO Dana White in a new promo for Sony and Marvel’s Venom: The Last Dance.
Before the threequel‘s October 25 theatrical release, Venom: The Last Dance continues to target its crucial demographic by getting known UFC personalities to help promote the upcoming film. In today’s Venom: The Last Dance promo, Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) hits UFC boss Dana White up for money amid a heated phone call. White, already frustrated, tells Eddie to hit the bricks. Eddie wants to walk away from the impromptu meeting with some cash, but he says he’ll fight anyone to earn the scratch. After getting denied and sent packing, Eddie bumps into American mixed martial artist Sean O’Malley and wrestles him to the ground. When White finds O’Malley tussling with Brock in the hallway, White throws a wad of cash to the floor, hoping it’s enough to send Brock on his way.
Here is the official synopsis from the studio: In Venom: The Last Dance, Tom Hardy returns as Venom, one of Marvel’s greatest and most complex characters, for the final film in the trilogy. Eddie and Venom are on the run. Hunted by both of their worlds and with the net closing in, the duo is forced into a devastating decision that will bring the curtains down on Venom and Eddie’s last dance.
Hardy is reprising the role of Eddie Brock / Venom for this sequel, and he is joined in the cast by Juno Temple (Ted Lasso), Clark Backo (Letterkenny), and Chiwetel Ejiofor (Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness). Official details on the new characters have not been revealed. Still, Ejiofor is not playing his Doctor Strange character, Baron Mordo, since the Venom films are in a different universe than the Marvel Cinematic Universe films.
Do you think the UFC crowd is excited about Venom: The Last Dance? What do you think about the new Venom promo? Could Venom defeat the whole UFC cast? Who would give the symbiote a run for his money? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
Back in early 2023, filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan told Collider, “I have three movie ideas. I even have the structure of all three to some extent. And so it’s a very weird and interesting situation I’m feeling. I wish I could tell them faster. I wish I could get there faster, but there is no shortcut. I have to spend the six to nine months to write it. I have to storyboard for three months, and then we have pre-production, and then shooting it, and edit for as long as I can get every single second.“ Soon after, it was announced that he had secured a multi-year deal with Warner Bros. – and he immediately went to work on his recent thriller Trap. Now that Trap has made its way out into the world, it’s time for Shyamalan to start putting the second of those three movie ideas he said he had, his 17th feature film overall, and he has taken to social media to reveal that he’s currently gearing up to write the screenplay!
Sharing a picture of a notebook, Shyamalan wrote, “As a ritual for each film, I pick a notebook that speaks to me and I write notes, ideas for the new film in that. When it’s overflowing with ideas, I go to outline then script. This is the notebook for movie 17! This bright red felt just right! As Trap passes 80 million in theaters, I am so grateful and begin the new one inspired by all the support you have given me over the years.” His Instagram post can be seen at THIS LINK.
Yes, Shyamalan is already up to his movie 17 in his career. His breakthrough movie The Sixth Sense was actually his third feature; the full list goes like this: Praying with Anger, Wide Awake, The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs, The Village, Lady in the Water, The Happening, The Last Airbender, After Earth, The Visit, Split, Glass, Old, Knock at the Cabin, and Trap. He has also directed episodes of the TV shows Servant and Wayward Pines, and music videos for Andra Day and his daughter Saleka.
There have been Shyamalan movies that I haven’t liked and there are still a few that I haven’t seen at all, but I have also enjoyed several of his movies, including Trap, so I look forward to seeing what he’s going to do next.

While the world takes a break from Po after the release of Kung Fu Panda 4, Jackie Chan is ready to pick up the bamboo torch with Panda Plan, an upcoming action film starring the legendary martial artist in what looks like a family-friendly, animal cruelty-free flurry of fists and fur. Today’s Panda Plan trailer finds the 70-year-old Chan playing a version of himself alongside a panda bear co-star, with mercenaries and madcap comedy along for the wild ride.
Chinese filmmaker Zhang Luan (Song of Youth, Give Me Five) directed Panda Plan from a script he co-wrote with Meng Yida and Wei Xu. In the Panda Plan trailer, a rare panda with a dark circle under one eye becomes a worldwide sensation when he’s born at China’s Noah Zoo. However, when a Middle Eastern tycoon fancies the panda, he sends international mercenaries to kidnap the zoo’s new embarrassment of pandas. Chan, playing a version of himself, uses his decades of martial arts training to spearhead a rescue mission. According to Mandarin Motion Pictures, “a thrilling and hilarious panda defense battle then breaks out in this wild life park,” as Panda Plan unfolds.
Jackie Chan is still lighting up screens at 70, with multiple film projects on the way, like Karate Kid. Jonathan Entwistle directs Karate Kid from a script by Robert Mark Kamen and Rob Lieber. Plot details for Karate Kid are vague, though we know Chan, Ralph Macchio, Sadie Stanley, and Ming-Na Wen, Joshua Jackson star, with Ben Wang in the lead.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter about working alongside Chan, Ralph Macchio said, “Jackie Chan is a legend, just to have that opportunity was exciting. He was wonderful,” Macchio said. “Lot of heart, lot of soul and caring, I will say that about Jackie. He loves being on set and it was like his first day every day. I love seeing that at his age and time of his career because I like to try to bring that as well, but a great young cast on that one, and we’ll see where it goes.”
What do you think about today’s Panda Plan trailer? I think Jackie’s gotta eat, and any excuse to watch him execute stunts is worthwhile. Chan still has a fire in his belly for making movies, and every one of them is a gift.
On Halloween of 2022, it was announced that original Friday the 13th screenwriter Victor Miller – fresh off winning the U.S. copyright to the 1980 film after a lawsuit that stretched on for years – was teaming up with his lawyer Marc Toberoff, franchise rights holder Rob Barsamian, production company A24, the Peacock streaming service, and showrunner Bryan Fuller (whose credits include Hannibal and Pushing Daisies) to develop a new Friday the 13th streaming series called Crystal Lake. Things were moving ahead at a good pace, filming was expected to begin in Canada this July, but then the project hit a speed bump at the end of April with the firing of Fuller and his frequent collaborator Jim Danger Gray. They have since been replaced by new showrunner Brad Caleb Kane, who also serves as co-showrunner and executive producer of It: Welcome to Derry, the It prequel series that’s coming to HBO next year… and while we wait to hear what Kane is going to do with the show, original Friday the 13th producer and director Sean S. Cunningham, who was Miller’s opponent in that long copyright court battle, has revealed what he has heard about Crystal Lake.
During an appearance at Silver Scream Con in Worcester, Massachusetts, Cunningham said (with thanks to our friends at Bloody Disgusting for the transcription), “Last I heard, they’re talking about shooting (Crystal Lake) in Australia at the end of this year and releasing on Halloween 2025. But I’ve heard versions of that story for so long, I don’t put a lot of credibility into it. There’s just so many things that can go sideways.” We have to keep in mind that Cunningham is not involved with Crystal Lake, but if that information is accurate, it’s interesting to hear that production might take place in Australia rather than Canada. A24 was looking to lower the cost of the show; each episode of Crystal Lake (which would have an eight episode first season) was set to have a budget of $9.6 million, but A24 reportedly wanted to cut that in half. Maybe, assuming Cunningham has heard correctly, Australia offered them better incentives.
Cunningham went on to explain how the Friday the 13th franchise got to its current state: “Some time ago, the rights expired on the original script, so then there became doubt about who owns what after 35 years. That was being worked out by lawyers, and we were trying to figure out what we were going to do. We were trying to do a TV series, which we actually got pretty far down the road on. I was very happy with that. I thought it was going to be a lot of fun, and then the rights thing blew up and the TV series got postponed, and then the pandemic arrived. Finally, A24 decided that they would hook up with Peacock and do a Friday the 13th TV series.” According to Cunningham, Fuller was fired from Crystal Lake because his vision for the show was “too dark,” which is a different explanation than we had previously heard. When The Wrap tried to get to the bottom of the problems, they unearthed talk of unpaid writers, inexperienced executives, and questionable bookkeeping.
As Cunningham mentioned, he was developing a Friday the 13th TV series called Crystal Lake Chronicles, which was set up at The CW, several years ago. He described one sequence they had in mind for the scrapped show: “A bunch of kids – 8, 9 years old – are out on the ice playing peewee hockey. One kid does a breakaway, skates down, and who’s in the net but Jason. He tries to shoot, Jason blocks it. The kid who’s trailing scores the goal, and they go, ‘Yay!’ And Jason’s pissed. He starts chopping at the kids and the ice starts to crack, and then we cut out of that. The explanation would be that kids in the high school had shot this video as a joke, and it was going viral on the internet. But I thought it was so silly and so much fun. I wish we’d gotten a chance to shoot it.“
Crystal Lake Chronicles was abandoned long ago, but Crystal Lake is still moving forward under the guidance of Brad Caleb Kane. Will it be filming in Australia, like Cunningham said? Hopefully we’ll know for sure before much longer.
After A24 picked up The Brutalist from an amazing reception at the Toronto International Film Festival, the indie studio has also made a play for the Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd comedy Friendship. According to Deadline, sources have said the deal that A24 shelled out reached seven figures. The film also stars Kate Mara, Jack Dylan Grazer, Josh Segarra, Billy Bryk, Jason Veasey, Jon Glaser, Eric Rahill, Conner O’Malley, Carmen Christopher, Craig Frank, Omar Torres, Jacob Ming-Trent, Daniel London, Whitmer Thomas and Raphael Sbarge.
The plot for the new comedy reads, “A suburban dad (Tim Robinson) becomes hellbent on being BFFs with his charismatic new neighbor (Paul Rudd).” Andrew DeYoung wrote and directed the film. The movie’s producers include Nick Weidenfeld, Raphael Margules, J.D. Lifshitz, and John Holland. Paul Rudd, Tracy Rosenblum, Andrew DeYoung, and Alexis Garcia are on board as executive producers.
Our EIC, Chris Bumbray, got to see the movie at a screening during TIFF and glowed about it in his review, “It’s also surprisingly nuanced about how hard it is to make friends as an adult male. Indeed, we’re not always wired that way, with our natural inclination as we get older being to hibernate with our families. It’s not true for everyone, but some folks watching this will relate to how Robinson’s character develops a bro crush on Rudd and wants to be instant best buds, even if the way he goes about it is certifiably insane.”
Robinson is also set to bring a new show to HBO called The Chair Company with his creative partner Zach Kanin. Written and executive-produced by Robinson and Kanin, The Chair Company focuses on a man (Robinson) investigating a far-reaching conspiracy after an embarrassing workplace incident. Robinson and Kanin met while working as writers on Saturday Night Live. They’ve collaborated on other projects, such as Comedy Central‘s Detroiters and the sketch comedy series I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson for Netflix. The latter is a massive hit for Netflix, with new episodes planned. The show also boasts the comedy tour I Think You Should Leave Live: Tim Robinson & Zach Kanin, featuring the duo in various hilarious bits and scenes.
I Think You Should Leave is an award-winning series after taking home prizes at the WGA Awards in the Comedy/Variety Sketch Series category with awards for the show’s first two seasons. The duo won Emmys for Outstanding Short Form Comedy, Drama or Variety Series in 2023, with Robinson snagging Emmys for Outstanding Actor in a Short Form Comedy or Drama Series.
Although the transfer of the James Bond character from lead actor to lead actor seemingly starts a new continuity, there is a slight tradition of supporting characters returning to reprise their roles. Dame Judy Dench bridged the Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig eras by carrying over as M. Desmond Llewelyn would portray the gadget genius Q throughout all the Bond eras until 2002’s Die Another Day. However, as we still sit on the cusp of development for the post-Daniel Craig James Bond films, Ben Whishaw does not think he will be asked back to play Q.
Deadline reports on Whishaw’s interview with the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg when he said, “I don’t think I’m going to be in the next one. I think they’re going to start all over again, and with a new cast, a completely new cast. I think that’s my hunch, but I don’t know. I have no idea.” Whishaw would still be interested in returning if they did ask him to come back, but the actor thinks the new film should be a clean restart, “I think it might need a new lease of life and a whole new group of people,” he said. “But if they asked me, I would do it, of course.”
While the rumors of Aaron Taylor-Johnson taking over the role have been circulating for quite some time, Edward Berger, the director of All Quiet on the Western Front, recently has been wanting to squash the rumors that he’s set to direct the next reboot. “That’s an absolute rumor. There’s no truth to it whatsoever. I would be very grateful if you put out that fire.”
Edward Berger went on to praise the woman behind the James Bond franchise, also acknowledging he has trust that she’ll choose the right director when the time comes. “Barbara Broccoli is a wonderful producer. She will know what to do at the right time, and it’s her family legacy. It’s her job to protect this and whatever choice she’s going to make is going to be the right choice for the legacy of that genre.” Last year, Broccoli said that the journey to reinventing the character hadn’t yet begun.
PLOT: FROM unravels the mystery of a nightmarish town that traps all those who enter. As the unwilling residents fight to keep a sense of normalcy and search for a way out, they must also survive the threats of the surrounding forest – including the terrifying creatures that come out when the sun goes down. In the wake of Season Two’s epic cliffhanger, escape will become a tantalizing and very real possibility as the true nature of the town comes into focus, and the townspeople go on offense against the myriad horrors surrounding them.
REVIEW: The fact that we are reviewing the third season of the MGM+ original series From is a blessing. The era of peak television we have experienced over the last decade is primarily thanks to revolutionary shows like The X-Files and Lost, both of which altered the landscape for mainstream genre television. While those series generated multiple failed copycats, we have had more shows follow the fantasy, zombie, and comic book formula rather than horror-tinged science fiction. While From started out with an intriguing premise, the uneven first season led to a superior second, which deepened the show’s mythology and set up a series of plot threads for this third year of mystery. From continues to echo its predecessors in the best way possible while keeping us guessing what is really going on in the town that does not let anyone escape. Or, as we found out in the second season finale, almost anyone.
If you have not tuned in to the first two seasons of From, here is a crash course: a mysterious town in New England is teeming with monsters that come out at night, viciously killing the trapped inhabitants of the village. In the first season, Tabitha (Catalina Sandino Moreno) and Jim Matthews (Eion Bailey), along with their kids, find themselves in the Township, which is under the leadership of self-appointed sheriff Boyd Stevens (Harold Perrineau). In season two, a bus crashes and adds more residents, each of whom has their own backstory that lends either skill to help the residents or adds insight as to why they became trapped. Over the first twenty episodes, mythology builds that includes the spectral monsters revealing their true nature, a music box that may control them, and a looming tower that is connected to the odd Victor (Scott McCord).
At the start of the third season, the characters are once again divided. The second season opened with some characters trapped in a collapsed house, while this season splits Tabitha as she explores her mysterious escape from the town and everyone else who stays back in the Township. Some begin to explore the trees that are some sort of portal, while others contend with the escalating presence of the monsters keeping them captive. The safety of all denizens of the Township remains tenuous, and the idea that no one is safe is especially true in the five episodes made available for this review. To divulge anything about this season would be a disservice to those who have been on this ride for twenty episodes thus far, but trust me when I say the gore and body count are higher this season than ever before. The series continues to figure out ways to add new characters by expanding roles for background actors and bringing new visitors to the town via supernatural means.
What works well in From is what will likely be the rationale for many not to be interested in the series. The format of From follows very closely to the template of Lost, which splits each episode into subplots that explore individual characters. At the same time, the main protagonists were embroiled in their own tasks. From ends every episode with a shocking cliffhanger that leads into the next episode, but each entry remains largely the same. At one point this season, Harold Perrineau’s Boyd states that they must do something differently rather than sit around and try to survive. Season three gives the characters higher stakes as the monsters get bolder and the human residents respond in kind. Subplots centered on Victor and his childhood add to the town’s backstory. At the same time, Jade Herrera (David Alpay), Kenny Liu (Ricky He), and Fatima Hassan (Pegah Ghafoori) get key storylines that elevate their characters to major roles compared to where they were in the first two seasons. Harold Perrineau and Catalina Sandino Moreno stay the leads of the series, while Eion Bailey and the ensemble cast, including Elizabeth Saunders, Shaun Majumder, Corteon Moore, and Hannah Cheramy, stay consistent with supporting roles this season.
As in the previous seasons, the third season of From opens with episodes directed by Jack Bender and written by John Griffin. Based on a story developed by Griffin with Jeff Pinkner, From seems to have an overall endgame in mind, with each season peppering just enough development amongst ten episodes of mysterious goings-on. The format and tone of From are scarier than most shows on the airwaves, but the look still sticks close to the network genre production values. The special effects are substantially better here than in other cable series. At the same time, the use of profanity and mature subject matter makes the series feel more realistic than network shows of the 2000s. I appreciate that Jack Bender and John Griffin, two veteran talents from genre series, have kept the quality of this series consistent from the series premiere on Epix to the show’s new home on MGM+. At no point has From ever felt like it sacrificed the story it was built around to meet studio standards and it shows.
From continues to be a unique genre offering compared to the other series on the air today, as it is actually pretty scary. With solid character development across the entire ensemble, creepy special effects, and engaging mythology, From continues to build out one of the most intriguing narratives on television. I would like to see the series continue to push the boundaries of what it is about and shift out of the formula it has kept going for three seasons while still being a great source of scares. Harold Perrineau has been a supporting player for so much of his career that it is long overdue for him to have as good of a leading role as he does here. From is a frightening and enjoyable watch premiering just in time for the Halloween season.
The third season of From premieres on September 22nd on MGM+.
If the opening ceremony to the 2024 Summer Olympics was marred in controversy (which overshadowed even the highlights), then the closing ceremony was filled with some of the most exciting moments of the entire event, not the least of which was headed by Tom Cruise, who put on one hell of a show – as if that’s any surprise at all…
As Casey Wasserman, president/chairperson of the LA28 committee for 2028’s Summer Olympics (to be held in Los Angeles for the first time since 1984), revealed, Tom Cruise actually refused payment for the gig, which found him rappelling into the stadium, flying on a motorcycle and leaping from a plane. That’s a hell of a lot of work not to get a paycheck! Originally, Wasserman expected to primarily use a stunt double for the Olympics stunts, but soon realized that that’s just not how Tom Cruise operates. As he put it, “About five minutes into the presentation, [Cruise] goes, ‘I’m in. But I’m only doing it if I get to do everything.’”
And so he did, becoming more and more involved in the entire process, committing himself not just to the job but to perfection. “He finished filming Mission: Impossible at 6 p.m. in London, got right on a plane/ He landed in L.A. at 4 a.m. and filmed the scene where he pulls onto a military plane. In L.A., he does two jumps out of the [plane]. He didn’t like the first one, so he did a second jump. Then he helicoptered from Palmdale to the Hollywood sign, filmed from 1 until 5, helicoptered to Burbank Airport, and flew back to London.”
The closing ceremony of the Summer Olympics gave Tom Cruise one of the grandest stages to deliver what we all expect from him: incredible stunt work, selfless deeds and a promotion for Hollywood, perfectly setting up 2028’s event. And no, we’re not surprised he pulled off every single bit of it.
What did you think of Tom Cruise’s work during the Summer Olympics? Was it the standout moment for you? Let us know in the comments section below.
