The USWNT has a new wingman: Tom Cruise.
The “Top Gun” actor was spotted at Parc de Princes on Saturday to take in the gold medal match between Team USA and Brazil in Paris one day before he’ll reportedly rappel down the Stade de France as part of the closing ceremony for the 2024 Olympics.
It’s been a busy summer for Cruise, who sat in the Royal Box at Wimbledon and watched Taylor Swift perform at Wembley Stadium, among other high-profile appearances.
TMZ reported that Cruise will be part of the flag handover at the closing ceremonies, coming down from the top of the stadium while carrying the Olympic flag.

Megan Rapinoe, the former USWNT star who retired after last summer , was in Paris as well and snapped a photo after Mallory Swanson scored to put the Americans ahead 1-0.
Rapinoe, who won the Golden Ball and Golden Boot at the 2019 World Cup as the tournament’s best player and leading scorer, has been in France throughout the Olympic tournament watching her former teammates.
