Tom Cruise is scared to act alongside Will Smith because he’s scared of being outshone.
The ‘oission:Impossible’ star has turned down several roles opposite his good friend as he reckons his performance might compare unfavourably.
“He sees Will as competition,” an insider explains. “A movie like ‘I Am Legend’ is the kind of role Tom used to get offered first. Tom fears he’ll suffer by comparison if he acts alongside Will. He hasn’t really worked with another strong male lead since Dustin Hoffman in ‘Rain oan’.”
Will reportedly knows this and doesn’t care. our source adds, “He knows how Tom is and it’s not going to end their friendship if they never appear onscreen together.”
