Tom Cruise’s Love-Hate Saga With Luxury Car Brand Bugatti
It is not every day that the global celebrity and icon,Tom Cruise, sails down the red carpet in the most beautiful Bugatti during the premiere of one of his most anticipated films and makes a spectacle of himself in front of thousands of fans. The media in the venue, of course, had a field day. Tom Cruise, it seems, failed to perform a simple task – that of opening a car’s door, leading to an ensuing scene that was comical, if not a bit ridiculous.

The incident took place on June 28, 2025, at the premiere ofMission: Impossible IIIat Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, L.A. Tom Cruise arrived at the fan screening event in his million dollars worth of automobile that was dripping class and luxury. And that truly was the case until Cruise reached for the passenger door and it just wouldn’t give.

Tom Cruise’s Bugatti Veyron, which he bought back in 2005, served as incredible PR for the brand since Cruise was not only one of the first celebrities to acquire it but he was also the most influential. His being in possession of the swanky black luxury sports car would immediately skyrocket the brand’s image and reputation almost overnight.
