Insiders say Brad and Tom are at loggerheads again<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
Despite being two of Hollywood’s most successful actors with seemingly lots in common, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise have a long-running feud that goes back three decades.<\/p>\n
The pair first butted heads when they worked together on the 1994 horror movie, Interview with the Vampire, with Brad, 60, describing Tom, 62, as \u201cNorth Pole\u201d while he was \u201cSouth\u201d.<\/p>\n
And now, as Brad gets set to spend an extended time in London to film his new racing movie F1, in which he stars as a driver who returns to the world of Formula 1, it seems their rivalry has been reignited once again. Insiders claim that not only is Tom \u2013 who lives in the UK \u2013 unimpressed that Brad will be in the same country, he\u2019s also annoyed that he\u2019s working with Joseph Kosinski \u2013 the same director he hired for Top Gun: Maverick.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/GettyImages-586030942-2.jpg” title_text=”On the set of Interview with the Vampire by Neil Jordan” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”4px|8px|4px|8px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
The pair reportedly first clashed when working on ‘Interview with a Vampire’ in 1994<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]
\u201cThere\u2019s a reason they haven\u2019t worked together in 30 years. They clashed so badly when they shot Interview with the Vampire, neither of them has ever been able to move past it,\u201d a source tells Closer. \u201cThey play it down publicly, but it\u2019s no secret they can\u2019t stand each other.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTom feels very territorial about the UK so that\u2019s part of it \u2013 he\u2019s the last person he wants in what he now sees as his personal kingdom. Tom takes a huge amount of pride in the fact that he\u2019s totally immersed in British high society, he\u2019s rubbing shoulders with royalty and back in the good books with the Beckhams.”<\/p>\n
Our insider adds, “As far as he\u2019s concerned, London is his home, so people like Brad, who just want to fly in and out to make a movie or take a quick vacation once in a while, are just not on his same wavelength. But it also really sticks in his craw that Brad\u2019s now working with the same director that Tom hired.\u201d<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/GettyImages-1528168594.jpg” title_text=”F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”4px|8px|4px|8px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
Brad is working with Tom’s pal Joseph Kosinski on his new film<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
The movie, which is co-produced by Top Gun producer Jerry Bruckheimer as well as Formula 1 legend Lewis Hamilton, has been tipped to follow in the Top Gun sequel\u2019s success. And there\u2019s even speculation it could become Brad\u2019s first billion-dollar film, which reportedly hasn\u2019t gone down too well with Tom.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s been all sorts of buzz about how Brad\u2019s going to follow the success that Tom had with Top Gun and bring in a billion dollars when this movie finally hit theatres, and that has not gone over well with Tom. He feels like Brad\u2019s purposely stepping on his toes and trying to show him up,\u201d our source continues.<\/p>\n
\u201cTom\u2019s taking it as a challenge and letting everyone know he\u2019s going to kick Brad\u2019s butt at the box office. They have plenty of contacts in common so of course Brad is going to hear every word he might say about him and knowing him, he\u2019ll have plenty to say back.\u201d<\/p>\n
Opening up about working on the set of Interview with the Vampire, Brad previously admitted that Tom \u201cbugged\u201d him. “There came a point during filming when I started really resenting him. He’s North Pole, I’m South,” he said. “He’s always coming at you with a handshake, whereas I may bump into you. There was this underlying competition that got in the way of any real conversation.”<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/GettyImages-1986203341.jpg” title_text=”The Prince Of Wales Attends London’s Air Ambulance Charity Gala Dinner” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” min_height=”28.8px” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”3px|8px|3px|8px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
Tom reportedly thinks of the UK as his territory<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
But their rift didn\u2019t end there. Years later, in 2009, the pair found themselves going head-to-head at the box office with their World War II dramas \u2014 Brad starred in Inglourious Basterds and Tom starred Valkyrie. It was reported at the time that Brad, whose movie came out on top, blasted Valkyrie as \u201cridiculous\u201d. However, Brad\u2019s spokesperson later stated that his quote was \u201cnot accurate\u201d.<\/p>\n
Things appeared frosty again a year later when Angelina Jolie, who was married to Brad from 2014 to 2016, got the lead role in the movie Salt \u2013 which Tom had previously been in talks to do. “Well, Tom Cruise was never signed, but he was really thinking about it,” director Phillip Noyce confirmed. “We needed a start date, so we needed an actor. Amy Pascal, head of Sony Pictures, said, ‘Let’s send it to Angelina.'”<\/p>\n
Since Brad and Angelina\u2019s bitter split following their ten-year relationship, the actress, 49, has reportedly been romantically linked to Tom, which unsurprisingly, is said to have left Brad unhappy. One source previously revealed, \u201cOver the past few years, they\u2019ve had conversations about working together, it\u2019s just about finding the right project. And lately, Ange has seemed more open to getting to know him socially, too.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/GettyImages-609273290-scaled.jpg” title_text=”AFI FEST 2015 Presented By Audi Opening Night Gala Premiere Of Universal Pictures’ %22By the Sea%22 – Arrivals” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”4px|8px|4px|8px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
Brad and Angelina had a bitter split<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
\u201cTom raves about Ange\u2019s intellect and what a strong, impressive woman she is. He loves that she\u2019s never really conformed in Hollywood. Plus, they\u2019re both such superstars, only a handful of people can truly understand the life they live. That in itself creates a bond.\u201d<\/p>\n
And it seems that Brad and Tom won\u2019t be burying the hatchet any time soon. \u201cThe two of them couldn\u2019t be more opposite. Brad\u2019s attitude has always been that Tom needs to seriously relax and stop taking himself so seriously. It\u2019s the same old argument they had way back in the day when they worked together, they\u2019re really like oil and water,\u201d our source says.<\/p>\n
\u201cBrad loves to swoop in and take a bow and show himself off as the King of Hollywood, it\u2019s been that way for years, at least as far as Tom sees it, and he finds it very annoying. It\u2019s that much worse because Tom\u2019s convinced Brad\u2019s trying to take a page out of his Top Gun handbook. Considering he\u2019s working with so many of the same crew, right down to the director and producer, you can see why Tom\u2019s convinced Brad\u2019s a copycat. But of course, Brad would never admit it. He\u2019s not going to kowtow to Tom or stroke his ego. And he\u2019s certainly not going to do a thing to fix this feud. The two of them have been at odds for 30 years and probably will be another 30 more.\u201d<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”credit-texts” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Aboreto|||on|||||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]
