When Brad Pitt Called Tom Cruise’s Movie ‘Ridiculous’ To Promote His Film, Fuelling The Rumours Of His Fallout With The Actor Due To ‘Underlying Competition’

It is often believed that two leading stars of the same generation cannot be good friends. While this statement is not necessarily true, it probably was in Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt’s case. The actors are two of the biggest sensations in Hollywood and have been for the past three decades. However, they apparently did not get along well when the two starred in the movie Interview With The Vampire in 1994. Later, Pitt even called one of Cruise’s movies ‘ridiculous.’ Scroll on to learn further.

Brad and Tom’s alleged feud has surfaced online time and again. The former once revealed that working together in Interview With The Vampire had become a task for him, and he had resented his co-star after a point. He even shared that because of their underlying competition, they never really spoke to each other much. In 2008, Tom starred in Valkyrie, and sometime later, Brad played a similar role in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds.

Both the films, Valkyrie and Inglorious Basterds had a similar plot. The movie was about a soldier trying to take down Hitler and the Nazi party. Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise played the soldiers in their respective movies. While both movies performed well at the box office, Brad apparently did not like the latter’s film. While speaking to a German magazine Stern, he said, “It was a ridiculous movie. The Second World War could still deliver more stories and films, but I believe that Quentin put a cover on that pot.”
