Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney has told Tom Cruise to “watch out” after taking to the wing of a plane and soaring over the Kent countryside.
The Euphoria actress, 28, swapped the Hollywood hills for the skies above Headcorn, near Ashford, last week as she took on the stomach-churning wing-walking stunt.
Sweeney was strapped upright to the top of a biplane before being sent hurtling through the air as the aircraft performed barrel rolls and a loop-the-loop.
She later shared dramatic footage of the stunt with her 26 million Instagram followers on Monday, cheekily warning the Mission: Impossible daredevil that she was coming for him.
“Watch out, Tom Cruise,” she wrote, referencing the action star’s aerial antics in the latest film in the franchise, The Final Reckoning.
The footage shows Sweeney atop the aircraft as it twists and turns high above the Kent countryside, with nothing but open air beneath her.
Michael Pickin, director and pilot at Headcorn-based The Wing Walk Company, told the BBC Sweeney was “a bit apprehensive at first”.
But once she was up in the air, he said the actress proved to be “an adrenaline junkie at heart”.
Sweeney is understood to have arrived at the Kent airfield by helicopter from London with her partner Scooter Braun, who took part in his own wing-walking stunt on a second biplane.
Braun, 45, is best known for helping launch Justin Bieber’s career and has worked with stars including Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato and Kanye West.
He retired from music management in 2024.
The former talent manager also shared footage of himself strapped to the top of a plane with his 3.6 million Instagram followers, simply captioning the post: “Date night.”
He later posted a picture of himself holding Sweeney in his arms in front of one of the planes.
